Debates are 75% performance. And regardless of what you think of Vance’s answers/non-answers.. he was clearly much more wellspoken than Walz.

I know many of you will be quick to call out his many lies and non-answers… but that’s not the kind of stuff… jeeze.. 80-90% of America pays attention to in this kind of setting. Or.. in general tbf.

Idk, if this is what Vance’s plan was from the beginning of him putting out the “weird” headlines. Then that’s impressive, imo.


As a disclaimer I say this as a still undecided voter in a sold blue state who has always voted for dem presidents.


He's back to his racist, fascist, delusional, lying self today.

I really don't understand who people were impressed with Vance. He said things confidently, but it was all ridiculous nonsense. Building housing on federal lands in the middle of nowhere in the West will fix metro area housing prices? Tariffs would not cause inflation? Trump saved Obamacare? Trump transferred power peacefully? Crime is up and the economy is down? He wouldn't acknowledge that Trump lost. He wouldn't acknowledge that Trump killed the bipartisan border bill. He wouldn't acknowledge that immigrants who have temporary legal status are legally here. He absurdly blamed immigrants for every imaginary or exaggerated problem that he lied about. He repeatedly implied that the VP has absolute control over everything in the world. I can't think of one thing he said that was based on facts or any intelligent insight, wisdom, or analysis of facts. He just said bullshit non-stop to the point that it was impossible for Walz to respond to all of it.

Basically he did a slow motion gish gallop.

Of course he did. He lied through his teeth and pretended to be a normal human during the debate. And today he’s back to being a colossal jerk and said he found Tim walz annoying and mocked him.


He did not come across as a normal human being. He did come across as a stable sociopath in contrast to Trump who comes across as an unstable sociopath.

You lie. Vance stated he didn't know he'd be fact checked on air. It's plastered all over news and social media. You also made up a statistic and showed that you engage in cognitive dissonance. Way to go Trump voter with an agenda!

No. Vance is flexible and is able to adapt his behavior to the context. Trump also is capable of both rage-tweeting and relatively calm speeches (but he is far less able to memorize a script than Vance is, and can't remain calm and on point when challenged.).
(Except when he's trying to have a normal casual human conversation.)

Debates are a mockery - for fools as entertainment. It's not authentic at all. You really want to know a candidate, you have to look at their backgrounds, voting/results/history, interviews that took place in the past to find out who they actually are, etc.

The fact that so many people put this much stock in this debate to determine their final selection for office is so sad to me. For what it's worth, I do think Vance "won" the debate but it's totally meaningless.

I can't believe that y'all actually put any stock in these debates whether the VP or POTUS. I mean, you know it's all manufactured, right?

It is one thing to lie or "misremember" something from decades ago.
It is entirely another to fabricate things that didn't happen during the Trump administration or to deny a policy position that has been clearly articulated on your own website or on video/audio.

They really are not the same. And, we should be expecting more from elected leaders. Given Vance/Trump a pass or equating them with the "gotcha" on Walz is not serving our democracy.

No. The childless cat lady comments are from several years ago. This is who he is. People simply weren't paying attention before now.

That Darth Vader is voting for Harris tells you everything you need to know about the tide of GOP candidates.

His daughter is even campaigning with her today. They didn’t do that for Hillary. So what changed? 1/6 maybe?

I was an adult back then and this is complete BS.

We didn’t like W’s policies and certainly didn’t trust his warmongering buddies pushing WMDs, but we didn’t think he was a freaking PSYCHOPATH trying to overthrow the US. The GOP wasn’t pushing Christofascism back then. The extremists were fringe, not their party leaders and nominees.


W hired these people : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooks_Brothers_riot


We were all ready for it to be done by then. The outcome seemed unfair but at no point was anyone worried about having a peaceful transition of power. Once it was done, it was done.




So you believe using violence to disrupt electoral processes is ok and that's why it's ok that W hired the people that did this?




It wasn’t ok but it also wasn’t violent.


Poster child for “those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it”.

It was not OK and it was very violent.

On January 6, 2021, the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C., was attacked by a mob of supporters of then–U.S. President Donald Trump in an attempted self-coup d'état two months after his defeat in the 2020 presidential election. They sought to keep him in power by occupying the Capitol and preventing a joint session of Congress from counting the Electoral College votes to formalize the victory of President-elect Joe Biden. The attack was ultimately unsuccessful in preventing the certification of the election results. According to the bipartisan House select committee that investigated the incident, the attack was the culmination of a seven-part plan by Trump to overturn the election.

Within 36 hours, five people died: one was shot by Capitol Police, another died of a drug overdose, three died of natural causes, and a police officer died after being assaulted by rioters. Many people were injured, including 174 police officers. Four officers who responded to the attack killed themselves within seven months. Damage caused by attackers exceeded $2.7 million.

Ya’ll crack me up.


If you can’t tell the difference between a stupid personal lie showing you witnessed history as a young person because it sounded cooler vs. lying repeatedly about US statistics and issues to win a national race, I feel sorry for you. (But really you probably just are are lazy thinking or rely on cognitive dissonance).

Walz shouldn’t have lied, but it’s absolutely nothing compared to the gross lies that Vancehas ADMITTED to telling for funsies.
