MODERATORS
Walz has the receipts on improving the lives of the middle class.
Thank god, they actually muted!
Yeah, once Walz started talking after they let Vance say his whole point.
Too little too late lol
Why always do this crap, where they act like they're not going to let just babble at their leisure and then they just do it anyway.
Mics got cut. Nice.
Ouch on the Haitian call.
LOL! "Thank you, senator, for describing the legal process."
Mic cut
Moderators lost control
Yeah, but then they cut their mics. Which was hilarious.
They got it back. Mics got cut.
Vance talking over the moderators, now. That won't play well.
I wish this was true....
Vance is slick, but Walz is honest. I hope people can see the difference.
Oh nice! Walz mentioned Wall Street speculators driving up housing prices. Then he literally quoted the Bible.
Does Congress need to pass bills to help border patrol?
Vance: The president has to solve it by helping law enforcement.
JD, isn't that what the bill passing through Congress would do?
Springfield Ohio.
Please bring up cats and dogs. You know you want to. Fucking racist.
We're ~25 minutes in, and so far I would say this debate is close, but Walz is edging out Vance. He's not as polished, but he's coming across as more genuine, and he's directly answering.
There's also the fact the JD is lying.
Funnily enough, I think Vance had a savvy answer on climate change and Walz has dominated on immigration
You mean like the fucking bill Trump killed!? Ok i am done. I’ve seen enough
walz is owning this one. he is doing great and vance goes between evading and just lying. Hes better and more consistent with his lies which makes this no where near as entertaining as the presidential debate.
What the fuck does empowering the border agents mean? They are doing their jobs.
Walz just comes off as so goddamn nice. I wish I could meet him in person.
Walz just dropped the pet eating bomb back on JDs head.
Wtf is Vance talking about? So he’s going to continue separating families, got it.
He simply refused to answer.
Walz doing great going after Trump.
exactly . Trump wants issues to run on, not solutions. We just saw this as he tried to manipulate the senate to not fix things so he’d have the problem to rail against and run on. This is anti-American.
Walz nailed the immigration question. Vance is making up lies and using buzzwords.
And Vance is simply refusing to answer the question about child separation. He simply won't.
A winning comment by Walz here.
Walz directly quoting Trump's promises about the wall, including the "Mexico will pay for it."
folks folks folks
The borders aren’t open, you numpty twat. Just keep lying.
Do you live near the southern border? No one disagrees that there are serious difficulties with border enforcement and illegal immigration right now. They're debating what to do about it. I would honestly encourage you to follow more reporting on border issues. Like actual reportage, not commentary. It's rough.
I grew up in Phoenix, and we had a home in Puerto Penasco Mexico, so yeah. You don’t know me, so don’t assume I don’t know what I’m talking about. I don’t say things I can’t source, thanks.
yeah the problem here is vance says things that could be decent. if they were actually true. walz is doing great but how do you debate just made up crap.
vance is hilarious suggesting you get rid of the workers by deporting them. Obama showed you have to go after the employers which actually works.
Vance: "Build the wall."
Yeah, no... I don't think you understand how big the southern border is or what terrain it's on, pal.
Trump got the house republicans to turn against their own bipartisan immigration bill so he can run on the issue. Hammer that hard.
Another non answer. No plan
Good lord. Can he answer ONE FUCKING QUESTION? Just one.
Fentanol?
Vance completely avoided that subject
