For the Trump v Biden Debate we have around 200 users chatting. For the Trump v Kamala Debate we had around 160 users. I’m not sure how many people will be interested in the VP debate.
I am playing it on this channel because the other channel uses peertube, which can potentially share your IP address to other users. This channel will not have peertube.
I will have news commentary playing in the channel before the debate and potentially after the debate as well.
What’s shocking here is that JD Vance could easily have been a Democratic pick for VP and he would have been a good one if it weren’t for his stance on abortion.
I’m going to do sudoku in the battle box.
s have to stop trying to make “politics of joy” a thing
The politics of JOI
Sounds like Walz got ez clapped.
But it still pisses me off they use “joy” and not “optimism”. The former just reeks of self-infantilization.
There is a very specific reason why they used the words “joy” and “the strongest military in the world”.
jesus fucking christ
Speaking of self-infantilization, It’s only a matter of time until the democrats start calling each other “fren”.
Cool
He didn’t. But this was pretty much a stalemate in what could’ve been a bloodbath if Walz actually tried to attack.
“Mom, I want the Biden-Trump sons debate!”
Mom: “We have the sons debate at home”
The sons debate at home:
JD just said he wanted to decommodify housing
fuckyoufuckyoufuckyou!
Love how dems will just straight up lie in front of everyone and we’re considered crazy for not believing them.
“Politicians are all liars”
“Yes”
“Harris, Waltz, Biden and the other Dems are all career politicians”
“Sure”
“Therefore, the Democrats are also liars”
“You’re just a Russian bot who wants Trump to win”
Waltz said the same thing and I definitely don’t believe his ass either.
Vance is crushing, honestly
He’s got the energy of a debate kid and the education of an Ivy League shithead. He struggles to appear like a normal person, not like a smarty pants fast talker.
No wonder he’s crushing at a debate then
Yeah I’ll be honest he’s doing better than I was expecting. He’s managing to not let himself get pinned down defending stupid things Trump, and even he himself has previously said, and has been fairly charismatic. Walz sounds incoherent at times, and keeps bringing up terminally-political-brained stuff without giving sufficient elaboration/context, so most normal people won’t even understand what he’s referring to. Vance is a piece of shit for sure, but he’s surprisingly good at making Trump and himself sound palatable, if you didn’t know better.
Harris and Walz need to stop bringing up Project 2025 in debates. All they have to do is say “no I don’t support that, here’s what I actually support”. Immediate, easy deflect into a stump speech.
Agreed. Project 2025 has always just seemed like bait to me, which the liberal media and democrats have swallowed whole. Not in the sense that it’s fake or that everything in it isn’t something the GOP actually wishes it could do, but that it has gotten political brain poisoned liberals to freak out constantly about some spooky opaque 1000 page document, which no sane person is ever actually going to read. It just makes them sound weird and annoying to the average person.
if you didn’t know better
Exactly. He’s really deft at framing, esp. in giving the viewers a permission structure to support Trump, and giving assuring, flip responses while avoid being pinned on satanic GOP positions, which is leaving Walz blathering, trying to clarify.
Lib alert
No you
WALZ SAID HE’S FRIENDS WITH SCHOOL SHOOTERS!!
Uvaldazed and Confused
Ohhh hell nawwww!
Tim Walz school shooters???
Maybe the worst gaffe to have at that moment
Cackling as Walz is dropping spaghetti trying to evade his fib that he embellished his Trot credibility by being at a very terrible Tienamen Square protest.
Why can’t they just cut the civility shit, I want to hear them shout insults.
I can’t take this any more. They’re just arguing over who can more efficiently implement a fascist vision for America. Fuck this place.
Lmao the questions seem to be weirdly pro-Trump for CNN. There’s this question about calling Walz out on a lie about going to China during Tianamen Square. Kinda just bizarre.
It was funny how when he “answered” the question it sounded more like he was getting defensive about going to China at all, rather than just saying “well damn I guess I forgot the exact details of something that happened 35 years ago” even when they asked for clarification, he just kind of reiterated the original claim that he was there during the protests lol.
I mean, the “Tiananmen Square” that Americans think of is just one picture on one day, but there were student protests for at least three months right? So he could have just said he was there during the student movement of '89? Daddy football was pretty garsh darn flustered tonight for sure.
Right, but the protests and the aftermath were pretty much over by early to mid-June. He didn’t even go to Hong Kong until August, if I remember correctly. Sure it may have been a topic of discussion while he was there, but he was not actually there during them. Just seemed incredibly silly that he kept trying to maintain the facade. He could’ve simply admitted he misremembered/misspoke (which he did sort of eventually do, only to immediately backpedal it and repeat the original claim again, to the moderator’s confusion). It was an absolute softball of a question and he completely fumbled it.
as with the kamala-trump debate, the dems are gloating about the brutality of their border policy while the fascists accuse them of not being brutal enough. americans’ blood lust is insatiable
Walz is cooked
having both candidates be able to form coherent sentences kinda takes the fun out of it huh
Yeah they’re being all polite and shit. I stopped listening once it was clear this would be boring.
