VP Debate tomorrow.

So far the JD Vance selection has provided the Trump campaign
1. The weird tag which has plagued conservatives ever since he joined
2. The childless cat lady comment that led to the biggest celeb endorsement of the campaign
3. The haitians eating dogs/cats story which absolutely torched Trump in the debate.

What does JD have instore to tank the campaign tomorrow?

Maddow had a good show today on JD. Connected his recorded opinions and statements with 1930s extreme right-winger anti-semitic fascists, and nazi sympathizers, and with rich tech guys like Thiel and some guy named Yarvin. One common theme is the closing of universities and the US is in a post-republic phase and should become a dictatorship.

Maddow: Vance Has Spent His Entire Adult Life Being Financially Supported By Eccentric Right-Wing Tech Billionaires

He talks about being in a late republican period all the time. That's him channeling this guy, Yarvin. When Vance says universities are the enemy and they should be seized, he's not only channeling Elizabeth Dilling and Allen Zoll and all the weird far right crusaders against the universities from the '30s and '40s. That would be troubling enough.

He's also channeling this guy Yarvin, who says that, while we are firing all the government employees, we should do the same to the universities, because they're all part of the bigger system that all needs to be destroyed. He says -- quote -- "Retire their employees and liquidate their assets.

She may be biased, interpretations that could be argued with, and won't attack the establishment, but she does lay down contextual backgrounds and history very well. She has become a bit of an expert in the 1930s to 1950s US pro-fascism movement with her recent podcasts.

Well my concern with this debate is Timothy's compulsive lying and stolen valour. They'll need to get him to borrow Kamala's bluetooth earrings so that an advisor can tell him to stfu when he inevitably starts on a rant like "so there I was, in 1944, storming the beach at Normandy..."

If he can avoid that then he stands a chance m8.

Are you having a stroke? I mean, not that I really care.

I wonder if he'll be fact checked in real time by the moderators when he inevitably brings up Vance and the fake couch story.

You know he will not bring it up. Vance might bring up stolen valour however. Given its been such a hit line of attack with the veterans, and Vance is a moron, almost inevitable in fact.

Well his stolen valour is true. See the difference?

I watched that, seems to have the best research team on any media.

 

[Maggie5]

I may be wrong but as a precedential candidate you have to disclose your tax returns and wealth?

Harris did that and more...

When Kamala Harris ran for president in 2020, she released 15 years of her personal tax returns, the most of any 2020 presidential candidate.

Kamala Harris' wealth comes mostly from her and her husband's investments, records show

Fifteen years of tax returns show how Kamala Harris, who is now the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination, became a millionaire as a public servant.

Even her husband sold shares in companies that he had.

After Harris announced she would run for U.S. Senate in 2015, Emhoff sold off many of his stocks, including CVS Health and Oracle. Harris won her Senate seat in 2016.

One of the best independent journalists on US politics gives his view on why today's Vance-Waltz debate matters.

[Cap]

Walz making the mistake of trying to talk sense.

Vance is going to kill him here.

 

[Royces Hart]

JD: let’s just say that carbon emissions drive climate change.

 

[10571z]

Both are fantastic debaters.

 

[Magnum27]

Both are fantastic debaters.

At least it is a civil debate.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

It's easy to debate when you have no positions or deeply held beliefs. JD just says positions that are directly opposed to what Trump has said. Just make shit up.

Walz did start roughly, but seems much better now.

 

[GreyCrow]

Mute him - thank you!

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Vance bitching about being fact checked, come on mate, just admit you want to lie.

 

[Sqotty from office works]

JD doing better than what has previously described him.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

JD doing better than what has previously described him.

No one doubts he can talk smoothly, the trouble is he has bad positions to argue. He's overcome that by just making bullshit up and pretending that they aren't taking these bad positions.

 

[Royces Hart]

Twice refused to answer whether they would separate parents from kids.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Cry more

 

[Sqotty from office works]

JD still getting message across to the plebs

 

[Sqotty from office works]

So you were in Hong Kong at that time or not.

Tim has misled and so far failed to deliver a message.
Smarter yes,better yes, but getting message across NO

 

[Satan]

They both misspoke

As I said, when dealing with people like Vance you need to lower yourself to their level.
