Final (?) Debate thread before the election in 35 days.

Debate begins at 9 PM Eastern, 6 PM Pacific and runs 90 minutes.

Vice Presidential debates are always tricky since nobody has voted for Vice President in living memory.

Expect Vance to attack Walz on his military service.

Expect Walz to attack Vance on the whole "immigrants eating cats and dogs" thing.

Expect Vance to attack Walz on being an assistant coach, at best.

Expect Walz to roll out "Weird!" at least once.

CBS has announced the burden of fact checking will be on the candidates themselves.

Yup. Keep going Walz, attack Trump over and over. That's all you need to do.

Vance is slick, but Walz is honest. I hope people can see the difference.

[-] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 weeks ago

This is marketing word salad, which is all you can expect from someone like Vance.

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, I honestly tried to follow his answer, and couldn't. It was delivered smoothly, and didn't mean anything.

Your running mate tried to refuse aid to natural disasters a few years ago to areas that didn’t rim him hard enough. Were you not paying attention?

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

And Vance is simply refusing to answer the question about child separation. He simply won't.

[-] Substance_P@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Lol.. number one export being top soil from flooding.

[-] monkeyslikebananas2@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

but Trump isn’t actually going to work to make solar panels in the US or anywhere. This is a non answer that “they haven’t solved all the problems, so we should do nothing.”

[-] monkeyslikebananas2@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Wtf is Vance talking about? So he’s going to continue separating families, got it.

Maybe people don’t agree with you because you’re a misogynistic dipshit.

So your ex-baby mama is watching. I feel bad for her for ever having crossed your path.

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 5 points 2 weeks ago

Cutting both their mics was great. I want more of that, please.

[-] Substance_P@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Really, by getting rid of the EPA?

[-] Substance_P@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Ouch on the Haitian call.

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Vance talking over the moderators, now. That won't play well.

hey so if vance/trump is going to have things done here instead of overseas why did trump not get that done when he was president. this is the problem (well outside all the others) with his campaign. He had his time at bat and he did not do any of these things.

[-] N0body@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 weeks ago

Venture Capitalism! Name the monster.

[-] monkeyslikebananas2@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Another non answer. No plan

[-] smokebuddy@lemmy.today 5 points 2 weeks ago

pretty sure America has legalized slave labour via the prison system

[-] Dreamless4561@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

Bust unions and give the rich tax breaks is the spirit animal of not just Trump, but all the GOP.

[-] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Oh shit, Tim just sunk JD's battleship.

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

I don't think the experts Walz was talking about and the "experts" Vance is talking about are the same experts.

[-] monkeyslikebananas2@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Federal land? We don’t have a land problem.

[-] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I don’t know the details, but I’ll talk about identity politics instead of addressing the number 1 problem right now.

e: and loop back to the border!!

Solving those things in the past! Stop worrying about the future!

[-] smokebuddy@lemmy.today 5 points 2 weeks ago

In the last Canadian debate one of the questions was that if you reduce housing prices how will the elderly who own all the houses afford their retirement. I thought it was ridiculous, but it's interesting that it's not even in the discussion tonight
