Eyeliner totally on point.


Eyeliner totally on point is going to wax you in 2028. You better hope JD and Tulsi don’t like each other because a JD / Tusli ticket or vice versa is going to obliterate anything the Dems put up. Trump is 1/10th the political talent that JD is.


I guess you are just trying to be funny?


Again, name a Republican who had a better debate performance than JD in a VP or Pres debate in the past 20 or even 30 years.


He was definitely a master at dodging every question without giving a real answer. I wouldn't say anything more than that.

I don't consider JD's nonstop slimy lying to be a good debate performance. Maybe you confused his arrogant smugness with "good." I don't.

And enough people, despite their best intentions, simply will not be able to fill out that bubble to vote for her.


dp no that is not the reason for MY anxiety! It is the orange man wins and becomes a Putin like dictator and we will be the destroyer of Democracy around the world.

No one has answered the question. Your choices are Trump, Pence, Romney, Ryan, McCain, Palin, Bush, and Cheney. And name a specific debate, not just that you like McCain or Romney better.

Nope—according to some insanely unhinged leftists, there won’t be an ejection in 2028


If he wins and becomes dictator as he said he would we will come back and say 'I told you so' but, we will all be the losers

Are you sure?
Because Trump is sheer madness at this point. To wit, the article on his ‘patented’ weave technique. Read it, it is no longer comical.


Doesn’t matter. We have solid checks and balances in place. The President cannot destroy the country.


Ha. You haven't been paying attention

Reagan was certainly a better debater than Vance. Trump has his sound bites, and an ability to dominate a stage, but lacks depth, interrupts constantly (his opponent as well as himself), Pence was calm and disciplined, good at staying on message but was often evasive and passive. Romney was polished, articulate and knowledgeable but stiff, Paul Ryan was good on policy and economic issues and a clear communicator but came across as wonky and lacking charisma. McCain was experienced, straightforward but struggled to make emotional connections with the audience. Sarah Palin was charismatic but was out to lunch on policy issues. George W. Bush was folksy and relatable but struggled with policy. Dick Cheney had a commanding presence, had some depth of policy knowledge and was an effective debater, but came across as aggressive and too polarizing.

The Republicans are poised to win the Senate, and take over the House. The SCOTUS has already said that presidential acts cannot by definition, be illegal. I'd like to ask the PP what checks and balances they're talking about.

I meant potentially keep the house. They already have a slim majority.

I spent all last night and then all this morning in tears for some reason. Just scrolling tiktok and seeing all the amazing content. I guess the anxiety and feeling powerless.... anyone else?

Same. Hopefully she’s right lol


you do realize that if trump loses Iowa he will still win according to all the polls?


What if Harris wins PA, AZ. MI, GA. WI. and Iowa? It is quite possible.

DP. Rhetorically he won, in that he had an answer to every question and he answered smoothly and without stumbles. But it’s interesting that the debate didn’t move the needle more with regular voters, even undecided ones. In focus groups a lot of them commented he seemed too slick, too much the practiced politician. So how are we measuring his performance? Rhetorical smoothness or actually changing voter behavior? These are two different things. I agree he won the first category.

To my memory, Dick Cheney was probably the best of above. I remember sitting with my MIL during that one. She was a republican in those days but has voted for Ds in every election since Obama (including today —and she’s in Georgia, so she’s a good get). She commented that she wished she could vote for Cheney bc he seemed so smart and reasonable. I was like, “oh, dear.” But also I could see what she was seeing based on his performance.
