You can't reference eating someone for dinner and omit one of the best attacks of the whole night.

"Why don’t you tell the 800,000 Polish Americans right here in Pennsylvania how quickly you would give up for the sake of favor and what you think is a friendship with what is known to be a dictator, who would eat you for lunch."

Fuck yeah. Kamala was all of us that night. The pity and scorn that she injected into that line was just simply perfect.

Damn. I skipped the debate because I cannot stand to see that bloviating orange corpse speak for longer than 3 seconds without having the urge to vomit violently...

I know Kamala obviously won based on all of the articles, but hadn't read specific quotes like this until now. She cooked him. This is the Democratic party we have needed and lacked for the past 15+ years.

Her “what women want” evisceration ranked, I believe, at least, as a tie to that one. I think I saw blood after that.

I apologize for not having a quote, because it was fucking art

The quote is good, her delivery with pure hatred, distain, and outright contempt is what drove it home.

It was good to see a Democrat finally be passionate and condescending to that fat fuck on a national stage.

Out of all the memery, I missed this until I read the transcript and it’s my absolute favourite.

She had so many good lines, clearly well prepped and practiced, and deployed flawlessly at just the right time.

And the way she looked at him, pointed at him, and the tone she used on him...we aren't talking about this enough yet: she made the supposed strongman look so dopey and small. Like a cuck.

Seems like she just wrote the playbook on how to deal with these fascist, wannabe strongmen losers.

I love Michelle Obama, but goddamn did that one quote of "...we go high" unwittingly derail the ability of the Democratic party to handle these clowns the only way that works.

👆 Trump in the "spin room" afterwards.

She also used the old "look straight at the camera to engage with the viewer" strategy very well. She chose the right times to do that, with the right messages. And she didn't over-use that technique, so it didn't get diluted.

This comment put me over the top. I will watch the debate. That fat fucking gobshite makes me so angry, I can't stand to hear his voice. I'd watch that one PA rally again, though.

In case someone else missed it, "give up" refers to the war in Ukraine, and how after Trump pulls out, Putin would invade Poland next.
