There are bad debates. Then there are massacres. Then there's what happened to Tim Walz as he imploded all over the stage during his debate with JD Vance.
We've written about the problems Kamala Harris has had with speaking, but Walz was just an utter mess.
It started off badly, with Walz looking scared to death and like he didn't want to be there.

Walz spoke about October 7 and that Hamas terrorists massacred Israelis, and took "prisoners." No, Tim, they took hostages. Not prisoners as in opposing combatants; these were not combatants. Then he tripped over himself and confused Iran and Israel.
Tim Walz is off to a ROUGH start...

Vance was doing great. He even gave a brilliant fact-check of the moderators when they tried to fact-check him. He of course was right. Walz either lied or was ignorant about the CBP One App.
Vance proved himself over and over again, and that former President Donald Trump made a great choice in picking him to help enunciate the message.
But Walz didn't settle down. He continued to implode as the debate went on. He wasn't able to give any kind of a reasonable explanation for lying about being in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square massacre when he was actually in Nebraska at the time. He blamed being a "knucklehead" for his comment. Really not a selling point to voters: "Vote for me because I'm a knucklehead."
The soundbite of the debate.
A knucklehead, indeed!
Thank you very much for the memes, tampon Tim. pic.twitter.com/ctjUW6qfiw— Viva Frei (@thevivafrei) October 2, 2024
But even as he was trying to get out from under the former lies, he said again he was in China during the "Democracy protests." But he wasn't. He didn't get there until August -- by which time the "protests" had been suppressed with the massacre in June 1989.
Walz said a lot of strange things. But one of the strangest had to be when he claimed that he was "friends with school shooters."
"I've become friends with school shooters."

What the heck? I don't think he had any idea what he was saying half the time, he was so discombobulated.
People couldn't believe it.
"Did I say that?"

But I think it's fair to say the Kamala people have to be tearing their hair out at this point after this performance.
VP debates generally don't amount to much. When it goes this badly, now people have to be afraid of having such person in the second seat.
He may have just finished off the campaign, showing how horrible Harris is at her first real decision.
JD gave Tampon Timmy the beatdown he was asking for.
I think the writer is a little hopeful.
Yet but the worst thing was he was better than Kamala, think about that.
No one mentioned his China fetish.
30 Trips
Yes, he did become friends with school shooters, the next one we hear about will be friends with Horse Balls Walz.
It took me 20 minutes to post this Trump message elsewhere. My flipping stupid tablet. I’m ecstatic to find it here. :)
Walz was better than whats-her-name Harris.
Vance was better than DJT (it's a good thing)
And, Vance was superior to Walz in every respect.
I suspect that many undecided will be voting for Trump/Vance on the basis of Vance's superior performance (and maybe their first time listening to the Senator).
I also suspect that Vance's amazing debate performance will stimulate possible sluggish GOPer turnout.
A pivot night.
Yeah, I don't even try to post images here from my iPhone. Or articles. Way too much work.
Simply replying to comments from my iPhone is a PITA enough as it is.
Most of the time I'll scroll through threads on my iPhone but when I want to post images or post articles, that has to wait until I'm at home on an actual computer.
Walz mentioned the many China trips he organized.
He took school groups...sports teams, dance teams...
Tim Walz --> <--Most Americans
More like a LOT hopeful.
👍
I am certainly no fan of Waltz but he obviously misspoke by leaving out the word victims or parents. It makes us look small for pointing it out . There are many other things to bring attention to.
Then that shows he can’t think/speak under pressure, just like Kamala. Not a good look.
It would take a whole debate just to ask Walz about all his lies...
“Why did you lie about your rank in the NG?”
“Why did you lie about the number of trips to China?”
“Why did you like about being there during Tianamen Square?”
And most importantly:
“Why do you lie about things when the truth would do just as well?”
What middle class, small town Teacher pays for 30 Trips to China?
Something is wrong there.
Why do you and Kamala like the smell of Police Stations and small businesses burning?
Fox really likes what Vance did. I think they like the fact that Vance didn’t use his ammo. He let a lot of liberal fantasies stand untouched.
Global warming and “Gun” violence, for starters
