Vance was excellent and prepared, but he had facts and logic on his side.

Waltz did terrible, but it’s not because he’s a bad debater. He had to defend Kamala’s and his horrible record and stupid positions on Immigration, trade, climate, jobs, and everything else. That’s an impossible task against a well informed and reasonable person. That’s why the leftists need censorship to prevail. That’s why the CBS moderators cut Vance’s microphone.

Defending the moronic makes you look like a moron, which is why Waltz looked like a moron.

Vance was under orders to be nice ( which is natural). They don’t want two Trumps.

They know it’s over, that it’s not worth it to try to put lipstick on that pig.

At least with Biden, it was an old white guy that many centrists could be comfortable with. That is not the case with Commie-La.

“Be nice, until it’s time not to be nice!”

Viscerally, I really wanted to see Vance verbally dismember Walz. There was so many avenues of attack - the tampons in boys bathrooms, Stolen Valor, the trips to China, his unwillingness to deal with the rioting in 2020, etc.

I live in Minnesota and really have a dislike for him but due to our media, he gets away with so much. He’s also, in the past, been more than willing to duck debates or hold one only at a time and place of his choosing.

I’ve seen Walz really get pressed on a few issues in the past and he doesn’t respond well. He gets huffy and indignant and his face turns red. In short, I so badly wanted to see Walz have a borderline meltdown on TV.

But strategically, I understand why Vance did the debate the way he did.

Lipstick on a pig and all that. Walz had zero to work with and he looked like Porky Pig.

Vance did what he came to do: appear harmless and physically attractive to suburban women. His constant references to the women in his life was brilliant.

I’d like to think you’re right, but low Americans voted Maobama into office - twice.

So there’s that.

“Defending the moronic makes you look like a moron, which is why Waltz looked like a moron.”

**************

Vance came across as thoughtful and factual. He deftly defended his views.

Walz was rambling and emotional. He spouted the usual liberal drivel.

It was a very stark contrast.

Nah, Walz looks and acts like a moron most of the time. He is every bit as bad as Kamala policy wise.

You can tell Walz bombed because Drudge has little mention of the debate.

“”I don’t agree with JD Vance on quite a bit,””

Well, she sure doesn’t have command of the English language..

How about “don’t agree with JD Vance on much”...

Too funny. All he needed was a bow tie to complete the image.

‘”Vance’s performance was even noted by Democrats, including Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D). “You know, JD Vance was a better debater than Donald Trump,” she told Jimmy Kimmel ‘

The MSM is actively trying to bait Trump into turning on JDV.

Walz was rambling and emotional because that’s who Democrats really are in a nutshell. Conservatives, on the other hand, are factual and thoughtful.

Vote for Trump/Vance, the thoughtful, factual candidates.

I’m surprised there’s not more “It’s just the VP debate so it really doesn’t matter anyway” spin from the lib media.
