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

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.

Didn't think Susan Page was very good in cutting Pence off.

insane shit is gonna happen in about 12 hours and no one's gonna remember a thing from this

a thing from what?

Should have said Will you shut up, man?

:)

this is kinda funny though

Pitch in $5 to help this campaign fly. https://t.co/CqHAId0j8t pic.twitter.com/NbkPl0a8HV

just heard that Biden staff sent out a pic that's just him with a flyswatter

Now I'm wondering if the reason Harris is not making an issue of Pence talking all over her time is to further alienate the GOP from women voters.

lol xp

(xpost) Good point. It's like they gave that a test run in the first debate and found it worked really well.

And the fly
On your head
And the fly
Means you’re dead
In your hair
In your hair
It is crawling

In your hair
In your ha-a-air
