Listening…

Vance seems to have a really inflated view of the office he aspires to. He blames Harris for Biden’s policies and the (in)action of the Congress. Does Vance think he’ll be running the government as VP?

Is this what a Yale law degree leads to?

(I will give Vance credit: he’s a very slick liar.
🤥. He’s also said several times Harris was POTUS. Walz only after the mud-point break pushed back on that. Should be easy: remind Vance we only have 1 President at a time, and it ain’t the VP.)
Although what seems to be Vance’s closing rant (I’ve quit playing close attention) is Vance really letting his freak flag fly. And worse, giving Walz a chance to revisit Jan 6th. Major blunder. Everyone knows the audience remembers the last words they hear. Walz is reminding us why Trump is unfit for office. I tapped out earlier. Walz is making this a “discussion,” and he wins on Midwestern decency.* Vance is closing on a non-censorship issue which, again, voters won’t be voting on. And Walz, again, is pounding on J6. Good ending.

Before the second break, it turns out. Told you I wasn’t paying attention….
Pretty much. Vance let the mask slip at the end. He ends with a lie:”We didn’t talk about energy.” And glue just lies. 

What else is new?


*Which I think was a good idea. Ranting on that stage would have left Vance playing Kamala to Trump in the last debate. Walz could have slightly defended Harris better, but that’s all. As Amy Cooke is pointing out on OBS, Vance’s disapproval numbers are actually worse than Trump’s. I don’t think this lowered Walz’ approval (he has the highest of the 4), but I doubt it moved Vance’s needle, either. PBS is also noting voters being followed like Walz on abortion, disliked (most strongly) Vance on Pence certifying the 2020 election. Which are no longer sexy topics for pundits….
