Vice Presidential Debate Megapost! Tue, 10/1/2024
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.

You're viewing a single thread.
"Under Kamala Harris' leadership."
I wish Walz would say that JOE BIDEN IS THE FUCKING PRESIDENT.
Yeah, I wish he would just say "one of us is soon going to find out firsthand just how little the Veep can get done unilaterally."
It's like every single response, and he just ignored it each time. Vance literally said "her policies".
I counted at least twenty references to the "Harris administration," or "Harris' immigration policies," and one full-on "the Harris/Biden administration."
He gave an answer where he named Kamala then immediately started talking about executive orders. I can't tell if it's more infuriating that they're actually trying to pretend she's been president, or that their voters are so mind blowingly stupid they actually will fall for it
It was weird, because Walz had no problem saying he had nothing to do with tech companies censoring people.
