"Will you shut up, man?" US Politics October 2020

I was in the kitchen feeding the cat and mixing a drink but Pence continued to roll the moderator btw. Look forward to her givng a post-game interview, like Chris Wallace, saying she didn't expect it so couldn't possibly react.

"I couldn't catch the fly ball, nobody told me it was coming this way"

“I would never presume to know how amy coney barrett will vote.”

I feel like we need a charity single for this election just to cover therapy costs

it'll be...called....

oh shit

Pharcyde already did that

there she is

will it kill anybody to answer a question

Court packing is a tough one i guess

I think they want to leave it open

Pharcyde already did that

Mother got a pegleg with a kickstand

will it kill anybody to answer a question

― like, I’m eating an elephant head (katherine),

I think when confronted by serial lying like what Pence presents the emphasis should be on stringing him by the neck, especially when he's so bad this year at selling garbage.

did a fly just land on pence's head??

"With regard to the Breonna Taylor case, do you believe justice was served?"

Kamala: "No. Because she was beautiful, was training to be an EMT, and because George Floyd."
Mike: "Yes. Because I trust our justice system."

Actual lol at Pence’s “answer” to protecting people with pre-existing conditions: fear of late-term abortions and court packing.

is a fly on his head? lol xp

lol there's a fly on Pence's hairsprayed dome

xps :D

I don't know why he carried the fly
I hope he dies

C'mon, these useless moderators never actually moderate. It's a tradition!

Bless you fly

hey, this is a thread of peace, man

well flies are attracted to corpses, I guess

I stopped watching a while ago, but the highlight so far was my younger daughter saying "oh, so that's what Mike Pence looks like. Why does he look that way?"

Biden at the debate: the entirety of American policing has been corrupted, so I want to give them more money
Trump: Stand by, Proud Boys
Harris: we will create a database of the bad cops, for internal use by the cops.
Pence: me and Pres Trump will stand by anyone who puts on a gun to defend American streets

(also Harris on police reform: abolish private prisons, eradicate cash bail, decriminalise w33d and expunge convictions)

This shit put me right to sleep

holy fuck you're sleep posting

Harris has definitely cranked her energy down to Pence levels; I'm now thinking this is neutral as opposed to mildly positive.

god fuck imagine Warren on dis ting tho

Imagine how an amped up Kamala would play on the news tho.

^^^

frustrating to see them both play it cool, but here we are. fortunately Mike Pence's familiar has revealed itself.

Yes.

This debate has not, uh, edified. But the much-vaunted Pence smugness looked like illness; he's ruddy, red-eyed, and sluggish.

Harris is conscious of not looking like an Angry POC.

(which shouldn't excuse her fracking answer though)

why

just.

at least ken bone had a real question

don't think her cranking her energy down to Pence levels was a bad thing strategically

man, seriously, is Pence ill?

well, I doubt any of that helped Trump's poll numbers at all

xp I HOPE SO

Harris is conscious of not looking like an Angry POC.

Americans deserve candidates with energy levels that not only accurately reflect their own individual energy levels, but also reflect the collective energy level of the electorate. This is something that I feel quite strongly about, and something that I will continue to feel strongly about, as well.

let's ask the president for steroids

let's ask his son for coke

Took this in 1960-style; first half on the radio coming home, the rest on TV. Does make a difference, even absent any five o'clock shadow on Pence. Can't see that anything happened that will stick. Harris was mostly fine (better on TV, when you could see her reacting to Pence), Pence typically unctuous and just plain weird. I thought Harris's last answer was her best. The one time I thought she really missed was not coming back hard at Pence when he was going on about her politicizing vaccines. She couldn't have been clearer in her answer just before: she'd be first in line if the doctors okayed it, but she wouldn't go near one on Trump's say-so alone. She should've gone back to that, but she didn't.

XP He'd give us Borax.
