The VP Debate was Kind of Demure, Very Mindful

 


That right there? Was the most contentious the VP debate practically became. Because JD Vance stewed that he got called on the one very Big Lie thing he contributed to, because he can't understand why it is terribly wrong, bad and hurtful, and why he really did need to be checked on that very particular thing. Because he can't accept that the death threats and the bomb threats and the disruption of a whole town's active life can be marked down to his propaganda. 

Is he naïve? Does he not get that there are real-world consequences that follow from such lies, and that people with a conscience would avoid them? 

This debate didn't clue me anymore in on who Vance is, but he does remind me, oleaginously, of those old margarine commercials--it's not nice to fool Mother Nature. 



Walz didn't bury him, but he won the debate on facts. He and Vance seemed to operate on a plan of mutually assured civility, where neither of them would break out of operating in midwestern nice mode. 

But Vance lied a lot. And some of his lies, like whether Trump lost the 2020 election, are very meaningful. 



Vance doesn't have a problem apparently, with Trump violating the peaceful transfer of power, and he would help him because hir priors seem to be that only a "strongman" can set the poor dumb society we live in straight. 

I know he thinks this because he's down with Trump's "protector" role for us poor dumb females over abortion. Republicans can earn our trust--


No, they can't. When I hear some man wants to be my protector, I wonder who protects me from HIM.  Trump is a molester, not a protector. The utter gall of anyone asking me to trust him, or Vance, who wants a complete abortion ban. 

This VP debate wasn't probably exceptionally consequential, but as for me, Walz understands the issues and Vance is happy to lie about them, which to me is the same as being an idiot. 

And just so we are clear, that Trump confused Iran and North Korea earlier today is kind of a bigger story. 



His brain is bad and he's trying to be president and has a whole team of people like Vance okay with this. And it should not be okay
