What's shocking here is that JD Vance could easily have been a Democratic pick for VP and he would have been a good one if it weren't for his stance on abortion.

Walz coming out of the gate with uncritical support for Israel's right to start World War 3. Absolute Joy Reich shit.
Yeah gonna get a lot of ammo for dealing with him after this I think. He finally has to say stuff out loud
I laughed out loud at the insanity of that first question tbh. "Would you support a preemptive strike on Iran? You have two minutes." 
Real Amerikkkan question for sure.
"your weird sir", I say as I support genocide.

JD just said he wanted to decommodify housing 
fuckyoufuckyoufuckyou!
Love how dems will just straight up lie in front of everyone and we're considered crazy for not believing them.
Waltz said the same thing and I definitely don't believe his ass either.
"Politicians are all liars"
"Yes"
"Harris, Waltz, Biden and the other Dems are all career politicians"
"Sure"
"Therefore, the Democrats are also liars"
"You're just a Russian bot who wants Trump to win"
I can't take this any more. They're just arguing over who can more efficiently implement a fascist vision for America. Fuck this place.
having both candidates be able to form coherent sentences kinda takes the fun out of it huh
Yeah they're being all polite and shit. I stopped listening once it was clear this would be boring.
Tim Walz 
school shooters???
Maybe the worst gaffe to have at that moment
Vance is crushing, honestly
And then: Walz with a mealy-mouthed closing; Vance with a strong, sharp message that you deserve a house and a square meal, and reminding you that Kamala hasn't given that to you. And those baby blue eyes. It's too bad he's evil.
Yeah I'll be honest he's doing better than I was expecting. He's managing to not let himself get pinned down defending stupid things Trump, and even he himself has previously said, and has been fairly charismatic and articulate. Walz sounds incoherent at times, and keeps bringing up terminally-political-brained stuff without giving sufficient elaboration/context, so most normal people won't even understand what he's referring to. Vance is a piece of shit for sure, but he's surprisingly good at making Trump and himself sound palatable, if you didn't know better.
if you didn't know better
Exactly. He's really deft at framing, esp. in giving the viewers a permission structure to support Trump, and giving assuring, flip responses while avoid being pinned on satanic GOP positions, which is leaving Walz blathering, trying to clarify.
Harris and Walz need to stop bringing up Project 2025 in debates. All they have to do is say "no I don't support that, here's what I actually support". Immediate, easy deflect into a stump speech.
Agreed. Project 2025 has always just seemed like bait to me, which the liberal media and democrats have swallowed whole. Not in the sense that it's fake or that everything in it isn't something the GOP actually wishes it could do, but that it has gotten political brain poisoned liberals to freak out constantly about some spooky opaque 1000 page document that no sane person is ever actually going to read, instead of addressing the issues average people actually care about. It just makes them sound weird and annoying.
He's got the energy of a debate kid and the education of an Ivy League shithead. He struggles to appear like a normal person, not like a smarty pants fast talker.
No wonder he's crushing at a debate then

Uvaldazed and Confused

as with the kamala-trump debate, the dems are gloating about the brutality of their border policy while the fascists accuse them of not being brutal enough. americans' blood lust is insatiable
thankfully i apparently missed the part about palestine
s have to stop trying to make "politics of joy" a thing
Sounds like Walz got ez clapped.
But it still pisses me off they use “joy” and not “optimism”. The former just reeks of self-infantilization.
There is a very specific reason why they used the words “joy” and “the strongest military in the world”.

Cackling as Walz is dropping spaghetti trying to evade his fib that he embellished his Trot credibility by being at a very terrible Tiananmen Square protest.
Lmao the questions seem to be weirdly pro-Trump for CNN. There's this question about calling Walz out on a lie about going to China during Tianamen Square. Kinda just bizarre.
It was funny how when he "answered" the question it sounded more like he was getting defensive about going to China at all, rather than just saying "well damn I guess I forgot the exact details of something that happened 35 years ago" even when they asked for clarification, he just kind of reiterated the original claim that he was there during the protests lol.

That sounded mean after I posted it, I hope everyone that cares about this has fun
It's less about caring about it and more about experiencing this vile shit with comrades

"Mom, I want the Biden-Trump sons debate!"
Mom: "We have the sons debate at home"
The sons debate at home:
I'm going to do sudoku in the battle box. 
Why can't they just cut the civility shit, I want to hear them shout insults.
off to a strong start with a hitler-off on palestine (walz won't even say the word 'palestinian' lol)
My prediction of how it will look, coming back for a summary a few hours from now:

WNBA playoffs are on tonight. Anyone who watches the debate over Aces v Liberty is a fuckin dweeb
Walz is cooked
Excited to realize Walz is absolute shit and abandon all hope for 2025
Not to be rude, but how do you have any hope for 2025 still?
Hope springs eternal.
But I feel like it gets extinguished earlier every year.
