Oh man, I wish he’d slammed him on this partial birth shit.

ummmh hmmm

[stuffandthings]

Vance is just so creepy. Like, everyone keeps saying he’s well-spoken and I genuinely don’t see it. It’s like watching a younger Ted Cruz. They’ve both got that robot-in-a-skinsuit vibe when they talk.

[AAM2012]

JD: Explain this to me..

Tim: Explains it to call you out that JD has zero clue about the topic

This feels like many discussions I have at work..unfortunately.

Nobody is pro abortion you fuck face! We’re pro choice and pro shitheads like you staying out of my uterus!

I am pro abortion in the same way I am pro all healthcare because abortion is healthcare.

100% pro abortion here. Abortion is absolutely healthcare, but it can also be a decision someone makes because they simply do not want to be pregnant. It's none of my business either way.

[Bad Dingo]

Checking in as 100% pro abortion as well.

[erbear]

@@@

Did that MFer just laugh and say "too bad, so sad" about gun violence at schools?

WE DO NOT NEED MORE COPS AT SCHOOL.

[fernweh]

Ope - gun violence is Kamala Harris’s fault!

[suburbanzookeeper]

Vance comes off as a slick trust fund bro - I expected him to be smooth. The reality is he would be much closer to the presidency than Walz and his flop flopping while being backed by Peter Thiel should worry undecided voters... but I don't see this shifting anything.

[atexan]

THE DOOR LOCKS?? FUCK YOU.

[Bad Dingo]

My school can't even afford copy paper, pretty sure they can't afford bullet proof glass. Maybe take away the guns instead.

[beetea]

Make the doors lock better? What the actual fuck?

[basilosaurus]

I'm listening but can't rang follow along with the thread as my morning is super busy right now. Usually it's incredibly slow, but today is chaos

Oh but he will remind you he grew up working class. I can barely tolerate listening to this and I already heard him say it twice.

I agree though. He has that smarmy "I'm coasting through life on my whiteness" look to him. 

[fernweh]

We have to allow law enforcement to arrest bad guys. Uh- they are allowed to.

[Bad Dingo]

"IT'S JUST THE GUNS."

[lust2hart]

I love that Walz unapologetically said he changed his stance on guns after meeting with Sandy Hook parents. It’s okay to change your mind. Know better, do better.

[underwaterrhymes]

I am having to miss the last 30 minutes, so am following along here.

[livinitup]

JD just blamed the immigrants for the housing crisis and Kamala for “letting millions in”.


ETA: The moderate just asked Vance to give evidence for this.

Vance said we are a country of doers. And we are (or Harris is?) giving housing away for free to immigrants. (Did he imply free houses are being given away?)

[basilosaurus]

Immigrants are not driving up housing costs. Ffs

[Pom]

Does JD Vance think he will be in charge of everything when he is VP? I have some news.

This has been such a huge talking point for us - especially for people in a very pro gun state.

Please look into your local gun sense candidates!!

Also Vance is so creepy.

[rubytue]

I haven’t been following the thread, and only half listening. But every thing I hear is how everything is Kamala Harris’s fault.

25% increase in grocery prices?
Abortion?
Guns?
Housing prices. Because Kamala Harris imported illegal aliens?

He is like a robot.

[AAM2012]

How did illegals cause higher home cost..


Vance: Well we have this one study that we will post after the debate on social media…

[suburbanzookeeper]

Neither touched on Wall Street and investment companies purchasing up SFHs and driving up those costs - a missed opportunity.

[AAM2012]

I hear Tim saying a lot of “Trump says…”

Cool cool…he says a lot of things..

The way he blames everything on Kamala, he certainly seems to believe this.

He really does come off like a robot! I’m a little bit confused about how social media is like, “Oh, it’s a tie.” Really? The people I grew up with in rural Ohio HATE people like this. He’s like everything the right wing always complains that “career politicians” are: he’s disconnected, awkward, shifty, and definitely not someone you’d want to be around yourself. Just watching him gives me heavy serial killer vibes.

Right? Undocumented immigrants are not buying homes. I grew up in a very large agricultural area. The undocumented immigrants came to work on the farms for low wages and free housing. The free housing was a couple mobile homes on the back of the property that all the workers had to cram into.

[suburbanzookeeper]

As someone who lost her heath care coverage for a pre-existing condition before the ACA as a self-employed person, Vance can kindly fuck off.

[livinitup]

Guys! JD just said Trump saved the ACA.

Out loud with a straight face. Twice.
