WTF. " I honestly believe vance is sympathetic to this", in regard to gun control. He is making vance look like a

compassionate person.

"I think this is a healthy conversation".

This debate is over.

It won't change anyone's mind.

The moderators are holding vance more accountable than Walz is.

Sounds like it's strategic. They know Trump isn't reliable, but they hoped Vance would be. Nope

He's just as bad, 1,000 times smarter than Trump.

Love the guy but we are talking fascist vs us. A few missed opportunities tonight. That's all I got for now. Normalizing this shit is shit.

like the weird, liars they are.

Being polite is not a weakness.
Vance just agreed with Walz re: housing not being a commodity.

Governor Walz is flattening Senator Vance’s nonsense with decency. I am enjoying this.

manufacturing jobs under Biden/Harris did it for me. I hope I am right. Governor Walz repeated it too.

Tim Walz has gotten JD Vance to the point where Vance is treating Walz like a human being and not a demon.

Governor Walz is achieving that significant change while pointing out the serious shortcomings of Trump/Vance repeatedly with facts.

everyday. Why treat either of them in a civil setting. They are evil, they are liars, call them out with quick one liners like Kamala did in her debate with Trump. Let them come back from that and trigger them.

Edit: OK I feel better after listening to the MSNBC crew. I guess I’m just so anxious and I second-guess my own perceptions.
