Why does Vance look so airbrushed?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

I think his suit is ill fitting. Maybe this is a Republican thing tho. Trump always wears suits that’s too big for him.
Fuck off. It’s not about wanting families. Your policies turn women into walking coffins!
e: not even one woman anywhere, ever, should have to endure that, if it’s at all preventable. For anyone who doesn’t know, this can easily fall short of all legal exceptions for weeks, because the mother’s life isn’t actually in danger at first – though her sanity is, and it’s inexcusably barbaric.
Hella canned closing comments.
Ouch on calling other parts of the world dirty
It's pretty freaking hilarious that Vance is already planning to be in the "spin room" after the debate.
It's really annoying that JD had a valid point about economic experts being wrong about pushing neoliberalism. That really weakened Walz'es otherwise great point that we should be listening to the experts about climate change and allowed the couchfucker to push the "follow common sense" bullshit.
What the fuck does empowering the border agents mean? They are doing their jobs.
There is this face that Vance makes while Walz is talking where he looks at the camera and sort of rolls his eyes.
Idk why but it's kind of funny to me
Fentanol?
Vance completely avoided that subject
Is that what he thinks trump is saying or is that what he knows his running mate his saying?
Honestly, that was a solid debate from both candidates. They both did a good job dancing around direct answers. They both could throw and take jabs. The humbleness and relatability of both candidates was a breath of fresh air. I think they both did a good job trying to sway anyone on the fence, and overall, I think this benefits the Republican Party most. Vance is just a much more personable person than Trump. Democrats are really going to need to turn up if they want to win this election. I really think productive right-specific voters are going to show up from both sides and determine it.
Here's to hoping personal autonomy wins out. Govement rules over ones personal body is a slippery slope. Allowing one to choose, that's freedom.
My take away is the same. That was more of a "debate" than we have had in literal years.
I think walz did good. He held his ground and had some very solid jabs. He knows his roll as second man and backup and played it well.
Vance... did suprisingly well, and will definately be a threat in the future, based on his debate skills at least. This is practice for him regardless of how the election turns out. Experience is what he lacks, and the national stage will hone him over the next few years.
All in all, ill say no clear winner for the debate on face value. It was a show for the sake of the show. But ill absolutely be paying attention in the coming years. One scandal can sink vance, and if past gop tendancies are anything, there will be one. Walz is fairly bulletproof in that regard.
That was a good effort from both sides tbh.
Vance won that round. He's just a much more polished speaker/debater.
Yeah, although it was oddly close.
I disagree. Maybe a tie, which I feel is taken with trump/vance as a win as the expectation is they will do aweful. Vance is tangenting pretty bad now.
