Official Vance /Walz debate thread

Erick is being a stooge. The goal is to win elections. If they soften stances on shit to get enough votes to win, good. Harris’s entire campaign is a complete lie, but Democrats shut up and fall in line because the goal is to win and govern. I think abortions are the dumbest f#cking thing on the planet and they should be illegal, but I still liked Vance’s statement because it’s plays to moderates.
 
How many tie-breaking votes did Harris cast and on what issues?

You just admitted that is the only legislative/executive function she ever performed, right? So, spill it or shut up.
Build Back Broke which Biden admitted was just a green new deal bill.

He should have pushed smart ideas like this and encouraged the states not to close down completely:

There is a 99% chance you were calling them conspiracy theorists and nut jobs when they realized that.

We have the opportunity to get some really smart people in gov. Musk. My god think what he has accomplished. Hell he’s getting internet to the hurricane victims as we speak. Vance. Incredibly bright. Like an automaton. Jr. A great environmental trial lawyer. All in on censorship, and food processing. Like a modern Ralph Nader.

What will Harris and walz bring. Two people of moderate intellect who have been gov ees their entire lives. Election people. Identifying trannies and blacks will be their chief priorities. Enough with the progressive bs. We need thinkers and innovators. Trump won’t give a shit. That pig will play golf and breathe a sigh of relief.
Musk? Musk?

You adore a white citizen of South Africa, no wait, I mean Canada, no wait, I mean the U.S. (for now) ?

Yeah, right. If you love Musk so much, then vote for Musk instead of Trump and say out loud that you are withdrawing your support of that "pig," as you just called Trump,

I’m excited to have smart people from a variety of industries involved.

What progressive policies do you like

It’s 100 percent certain I didn’t. I linked this and recommended we do it soon as it came out. Swing and a miss there.
That’s out of character for you then. They were viewed as right wing loons who were spreading disinformation because they went against the establishment at the time.

33---More than any US VP..

Just a couple that stick out.

Inflation Reduction Act---The bill that included adding more IRS employee's, to chase down waitress, etc.. Although Harris is now saying "no taxes on tips.."---Where she get that from?

American Rescue plan act of 2021---Was to create 4 million jobs---exact opposite. People dudnt go back to work because the govt $$ was better than a job. Flooding a recovering market with millions, not a very good move. She was the tir-breaking vote here.

Incidentally, “against the establishment” isn’t a factor in detecting conspiracy theories. Stupid and illogical are the two key factors. The idea that 9/11 is an inside job, that the 2020 election was lost due to voter fraud, and Ray Epps was an informant or Fed are all examples of stupid and illogical conspiracy theories.
 
I'd say 'a little odd' is fair and goes to Goat's assertion that he's 'not quite human'. I would counter by saying that Kamala is 'very odd', and that Walz is not quite an adult.

I want a fact check on Walz' statement that his 17 year old witnessed a school shooting. Not saying it didn't happen, but I'd like to see the original reporting.
Well he didn't witness a "school shooting", and Walz never claimed he did. What Walz said was that Gus witnessed a shooting at a Rec center. It was widely known locally in MN, but there was no reason it would have made national headlines at the time...

"Gus Walz was at volleyball practice at the Jimmy Lee Recreation Center in St. Paul the afternoon of Jan. 18, 2023, when a 16-year-old was shot and seriously wounded outside.

It wasn’t the first time Tim Walz had spoken about his son’s brush with gun violence, and the shooting itself was widely publicized locally. But the Democrat’s remarks Tuesday night at his debate with Republican JD Vance, as the public is still getting to know both vice presidential candidates, offered the biggest stage yet to personalize an issue that has deeply affected many American families.

On Wednesday, the youth’s volleyball coach, David Albornoz, praised Gus in an interview with The Associated Press for how he helped get other kids to safety and keep them calm amid the chaotic scene."


Just because Trump and Vance make up stories to sensationalize issues, doesn't mean everyone else does...

Bet there won’t be men identifying as women stealing women’s cloths from luggage at airports.

Harris will have to appoint a representative from all 100 genders.
Aren't there easier places for Republicans to steal women's clothes?

Those airports have an awful lot of cameras.

Didnt watch....And irrelevant.

Like I said, yall trying to separate here from Joe, just as hard as Pubs are trying to tie her to him.

Again---she applauded his policies....his presidency, etc...But somehow she has nothing to do with anything? Even if so, she still supported him. Stood by him...Applauded his decisions---his poilicy.Was this just a sideshow from her? Are you implying she basically lied for 4 years?

I mean..............thats sort of important. At such position, you are the tiebreaker----and she was just that some 30+ times. No need to undermind the position, THAT much.
So any of those bills passed that she had to cast the tiebreaking vote on had to be passed by the House, prior to becoming law. So how do you think that happened if they were terrible bills that every Republican opposed?

And considering the hostility toward her current positions among Republicans (orchestrated by Trump) which of her proposals do you suggest she implement now? And how would that work?

As to how the VP office works this guy went viral for saying exactly what I did. And exposed a lot of not so educated people who slept thru civics in the process...

I'm pissed. This guy is now famous, and I made the point on here in total anonymity...

Vote was 219-212...No republican voted yes. Two dems voted no... Thats how?? If she shoots things down in the Senate, does it really matter? Nope.

If not so important why were Dems "celebrating" her breaking the record for most tie-breaking votes ever by a VP? Alluding to, "Iflation Act, American Rescue plan, and many great justices could not have happened, w/o her...."

Ya'll will downplay this---yet at the same time, call her a visionary, a pioneer---a great VP, etc....Yet 7 months ago, Dems were ready to throw her off the ticket...

COmical.
 
She has "nothing to do with" what "you guys" are accusing her of single-handedly causing when she was the vice president, i.e. the most powerless office in the world.

But now, so you can criticize her, you are trying to elevate the vice presidency into the most powerful office in the world. Don't you see how silly that looks?

She simply never had the power you guys claim she had.
The problem isn’t that she never had the power, it’s that she’s ineffective, insignificant, & unimportant enough to have any influence as second in command. The alternative is that she did & has been a part of creating problems with inflation, the border, etc. Which is it?

Obviously it's her fault that Springfield ended up with all those Hatians. If she hadn't signed the American Rescue Act all of those new businesses in Springfield wouldn't have sprung up and needed increases to the labor force. So the town's business leaders wouldn't have encouraed Hatians in the rest of the country to come there and work the jobs the locals had no interest in and the depleted population couldn't staff adequately...

Incidentally one of those new business owners (Jamie McGregor/McGregor Metals ) has been receiving death threats since he spoke out and negatively compared the unreliable, opioid ridden local workers with the Hatians he's hired. Sound like some real quality workers (and people) if they feel the need to threaten the guy and his family.

I can't imagine why he'd be reluctant to have some of them work for him... :rolleyes:

"For Jamie McGregor, a businessman in Springfield, Ohio, speaking favorably about the Haitian immigrants he employs has come to this: death threats, a lockdown at his company and posters around town branding him a traitor for hiring immigrants. To defend himself and his family, Mr. McGregor has had to violate his own vow to never own a gun. “I have struggled with the fact that now we’re going to have firearms in our house—like, what the hell?” said Mr. McGregor, who runs McGregor Metal, which makes parts for cars, trucks and tractors. “And now we’re taking classes, we’re going to shooting ranges, we’re being fitted for handguns,” he said on a recent day, pulling up a photo of his 14-year-old daughter clutching a Glock."

You aske me how many---I told you.

You point out the "good"---and there is some. There is also some "bad"---Yet you ignore that.

Its the issue I have with some....Eager to point all the good----point out the bad of the opponent, yet ignore the bad of "your" candidate.

I can google many issues with both acts---I can laso google many goods both produced.

At the end of the day, her position and time as VP is being pushed aside, simply b/c she is/was, historically one of the worst ever at the position.

OMG lol

So she goosed favored businesses... by throwing taxpayer cash around... to create jobs... that couldn't be filled... because nobody needed the jobs... and to fill these jobs nobody wanted... granted permits to 200,000 Haitians... to 'reduce pressure on the border' (admin claim)... by having them come in away from the border... which helps the American citizens.

That's your take?

Well, at least we got more inflation out of it. So there's that.

Back in the day the Dems on abortion used to say "make it safe & rare'. They don't bother with the 'rare' part anymore.

Why is it that when you want the child, it's a baby and a him or a her....when you don't want it its a fetus?
