The Walz-Vance [Debate] thread on CBS, 9PM ET, Oct. 1, 2024

And people who don't know that they're lies just hear the confidence.
Vance’s messaging is laser focused on rust belt voters.
This Walz question on Tiananmen Square is weirdly hostile.
The amount of basic drugs we don't make in the US is probably something that should be addressed.
But also it was hella funny when the US was making all the Moderna and Pfizer covid vaccines and not sharing them fast enough.
E: Like maybe we don't need to lead the world in making drugs developed decades ago.
But honestly, the guy is just a slightly dumber Paul Ryan. I don’t see the threat.
Especially when a large portion of our country was rejecting them, and we ended up having surpluses of them left to rot.
I'm waiting for "stolen valor, why did you?"
The questions are horrible.
Some of the questions are decent. These ones are awful
Overall they seem to be doing OK.
Yes, but, if they keep lying to the republicans that they won't fact check or mute mics just to get them to show up, that's a good first step!
Ehhhh it was a discrepancy he needed to address, and he didn’t address it in the question until the redirect. That wasn’t great, especially when his follow up was frank and good.
That's a common blue collar attitude towards white collar, which is a demographic Kamala/Walz are still fighting for.
And yet that's not mutually exclusive with what I said.
It'll play well with the base, but that's not the group of voters Trump and Vance need to convince to vote for them. I suspect it won't play well enough with everyone else. Some undecided and soft supporters of the GOP's bullshit will like it, but I suspect it is going to turn off more people in that column because people like an expert opinion on things outside their wheelhouse.
Just got to that as I had to switch to a more reliable stream and it was truly pathetic.
Meanwhile Vance has done a good job of not getting rattled, staying on message, and lying with confidence. Hate to say it but he clearly prepped for this, IMO.
that's their new strategy, we'll see if it works. i assume it will because american electorate is stupid.
I'm already getting irritated by both of them saying "But look."
Also, Vance's response on abortion was just bullshit. "We need to help families... which is why we're fucking not and want to obliterate all public programs."
It got ugly on the back half.
"Tell me what I said that was wrong!"
Internet troll made flesh
