These losing losers have been preparing for losing this debate ever since they picked Vance.

Typical NPD move – their brain can say “see I was right” no matter which way it goes.

Not trying to be pessimistic but I’m bracing for Vance to edge out a win in this debate.
There is no way that a Yale educated lawyer that is 38 years younger than Trump and saw Trump get beaten like a gong is going to walk into that debate anything other than overprepared.
But then again, Shady Vance has been making a very strong argument that he is a Democratic double agent since the day he was selected as VP so I could be wrong.

They’re planning another stochastic terrorist attack to distract from the debate.

Vance can’t discuss policy; governing for the people is anathema for Republicans, and they don’t want anyone to know about Project 2025. He’s going to resort to lies, name calling, and repeatedly saying “China,” as if Walz works for the PRC.
That’s all he has, and in the coming days the media will amplify these red herrings instead of focusing on substance.

He should be. Harris kicked trump’s ass, and Walz will kick vance’s ass.

I guess even “daddy” Trump doesn’t have confident in his “baby boy”.

Vance’s plan is just to spew out lies to overwhelm Walt since no fact checking will be done by the moderators.

JD Vance is going to be the fall guy for why Trump loses the election. Trump will throw him under the bus so fast and MAGA will go bananas on JD. Bet me.

Remember, Walz can be an attack dog, he is the VP, not the POTUS candidate. In fact, VPs DO NOT MATTER (well, until they do).
So Walz can call VD Vance a lier, and can call out woman that have died because of the abortion ban. He can call Trump a brain dead old shit head that lies, and that’s ok. KH, she’s the POTUS, she needs to be calm, maybe just snicker.
Walz, do not be a docile fucking mouse. East VD’s soul, if he has one.
Buffaloslim on
As a life long Minnesotan I’m pulling for Walz 100%. Governing is Tim Walz strong suit, not necessarily campaigning, but he’s definitely solid.

Sadly it doesn’t much matter if he loses it, because the media has sugar-coated and refused to say anything negative about Trump or Vance. They’ll just publish a story about him crying foul about the moderators and move on.
That’s in general how this election is going. Trump can literally do no wrong. He can stand behind a microphone, tweaking out, falling asleep, forming a coherent sentence maybe 10% of the time, and those 10% are all lies. But it doesn’t matter.
If Harris wears the wrong color shirt, or smiles a little too much, or mixes up a single name of a person…. Fucking armageddon.

I wonder how much time will be wasted on talking about pet eating Haitians.

Tomorrow Trump will say “Everybody is saying that JD won the debate by a huge margin. 95%, 87%, 80%. It was tremendous win in polling.”

Didn’t Vance go to Yale law school? He’s not dumb and he may very well be capable of holding his own in a debate. I think people are mistaking his weird social awkwardness for stupidity and I’m worried that this low bar is going to help them spin his performance into a win.
Grimm2020 on
I miss the days when debates weren’t so hyper-focused on who won or who lost, but instead allowed for the voters to learn about the candidates positions and preferred polices.
If that happens, then the voters win, which is what should be the goal, IMO.
vulcanstrike on
Yes and no. Trump still has a reasonable chance of winning somehow (and had a much bigger chance back in July) and being his VP now has a more than decent chance of being president already in the next few years (either through ill health, prison or death). It was quite a sensible gamble back then but circumstances turned it awful.
Pence has no such excuse though, Mother advised him poorly
Glum_Activity_461 on
Vance is going to get destroyed by Walz.
KenScaletta on
Is Vance going to be fact checked on anything or will every question focus solely on Walz having to justify teaching in China and prove he’s not a Communist.

JD is qualified to be Trumps 4th son

That debate will be a nail-biter!
