We’ll be has a track record of running and hiding when the rubber hit the road.

Vance will be in jail for this murder. LOL

Both sides claimed victory .

^^^ Scott Jennings on CNN is like kryptonite to all their leftist talking heads. Love that guy.

Not, uhhh, evil enough, I guess?

Don't agree with your debate opponent, on any topic or point, because, uhhh, the stupid people won't be able to distinguish between the candidates. Got it. It's a comic book.

Perhaps if Vance had punched Walz in the side of his head?

At VP debate a star is born and Trump is vindicated

The vice presidential debate on Tuesday night was staggeringly one-sided.

Sen. JD Vance was poised, calm, friendly, likable, and in control of the facts and himself.

By contrast, Gov. Tim Walz began the debate so nervous it was painful to watch. Then he made a series of mistakes which were cumulatively disqualifying. It was hard to believe he is on a national ticket.

Callista and I went to bed on Tuesday night convinced that Sen. Vance had won a substantial triumph. In that victory, he also vindicated President Donald J. Trump’s gamble in selecting a running mate so early in his career. At 40, with only two years in the U.S. Senate, Vance is only a few months older than Richard Nixon when President Dwight Eisenhower picked him to be the Republican vice presidential nominee in 1952. Nixon would remain a major part of the political scene for 42 years. That would give Sen. Vance a potential role in American government and politics until 2066.

When I got up on Wednesday morning, virtually all the commentaries validated the sense that the debate was something extraordinary.

This new reality was best summarized by Mark Halperin in the Wide World of News newsletter:

"1. One can pretend, as most of the Dominant Media does, that Tim Walz was not ‘clobbered’ by JD Vance, but, as honest Joe Klein (fully credentialed as second-to-none in contempt for Donald Trump and Vance) told the world, Walz was indeed clobbered, so badly that it ‘wasn’t as bad as Biden’s debilitated performance in June, but it was close.’ Remember: Biden’s performance] was so bad it ended his candidacy and career."

Pollster Frank Luntz tweeted that his focus group voted 12 to 2 that Vance had won.

Glenn Greenwald posted on X: "The most bizarre part of that debate was how Tim Walz repeatedly and flagrantly undercut Dems' core attack on Trump/Vance: that they're "weird," freakish dangers wildly out of the mainstream.

"Everything Walz said treated Vance as a totally normal, reasonable, likable colleague."

New York Times columnist Ross Douthat posted: "I would rate that the most successful Republican debate performance of this century, eclipsing Romney in the first debate with Obama in 2012."

Fox News senior political analyst Brit Hume had no regard for the performances of moderators Norah O'Donnell and Margaret Brennan, saying they were "obnoxious" and made the debate a three-on-one proposition against Vance.

These were just a few. The Trump-Vance campaign collected no fewer than 22 journalists and public figures who agreed that Vance trounced Walz.

Donald Trump Jr. was the third big winner in this debate. He had strongly backed Sen. Vance as a running mate and worked to get his father to pick him. That choice certainly seemed to work out brilliantly.

As Caitlin Doornbos in the NY Post wrote, Gov. Walz’s problems started at the beginning.

"Tim Walz got one chance to make a first impression at Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate, and blew it before his opponent, JD Vance, even got the chance to speak."

His nerves clearly kept him from meeting the challenge.

Finally, Gov. Walz said a couple of things that were just weird.

In a clear moment of confusion, he said he'd become "friends with school shooters." When asked why he had lied about being at Tiananmen Square during the 1989 suppression and killing of students demonstrating for democracy, Walz ultimately called himself a "knucklehead" for simply saying something that was false.

Being the "knucklehead candidate" is not a good way to campaign for the last five weeks before the election.

After last night, Sen. Vance is a huge national figure among Republicans and conservatives. He will have much more impact campaigning than he did before the debate.

After Tuesday night, Gov. Walz will be seen by most Americans as someone who is clearly not ready to be president or vice president.

Vice President Kamala Harris’s comment that she was exhausted and sleepless when she picked him will now look like a first step toward minimizing his role – and her ability to make decisions under pressure.

I'm finally getting to watch this...still just partway through it.

Vance is debating with the confidence of someone who is telling the truth. He also has the advantage of a sound platform, so all he has to do is explain it, not defend it. He comes across as agreeable, sympathetic, and logical.

Walz looks scared and flustered. His answer to the China question was a non-answer, and told the viewers that "he's a knucklehead" who gets "caught up in the rhetoric"...basically a liar.

In contrast, Vance owned his comments about Trump, accepted that he was wrong, and explained why his position changed.

And yes, the moderators are horrible.

What you are watching is someone who speaks with conviction that comes from the heart. You never have to think about what you are saying because it's your conviction, your truth, it remains the same. The contrast is a liar. Someone without real conviction, not speaking the truth in his heart because he has none. He is a liar and has told so many versions he's afraid to speak contradictions.

I'm going to get a little pedantic here, but I think it's important.

"Your truth." We need to stop saying this. It's just "the truth." A liar can absolutely believe what they're saying, in fact, the best liars do. Introducing qualifiers like "yours" and "my" to things that shouldn't be debatable like the truth serves nobody. The left use this phraseology to bolster and uplift the delusions of a host of people we can take one look at and see that they're living in an alternate reality - the language is being formed and changed around this with "your truth," living "their truth" and so forth. It's starting to creep into our own lexicon. We would do well to reject this. The truth, gentlemen, is not a subjective thing, and Vance spoke precisely with such conviction and poise because he was simply speaking the truth.

I know little about the National Guard but a fair amount about leadership and soldiers. I lost all respect for Timmy when his stolen valor and his failure to deploy shenanigans were exposed by formerly fellow soldiers.
This character thinks he's right and capable to be the co-pilot to the leader of the free world. Having an inflated opinion of yourself isn't all that rare, but this, this, this is a flaming, eats his own poop, shrieking moron who has the gravitas and command presence of a homeless dude you see eating fish heads out of a garbage can in a Seattle alley.

He said he was a knucklehead; no Timmy, a knucklehead can be fun at a party and oops, not you. You need to go away and not be seen or heard from again.

Yep. Someone who is constantly trying to backtrack to think about their lies and a lifetime of deceit to keep it going.

And the crooked media will not call him out for the most part.

I know Para warned about not thinking too far ahead but our country can be very prosperous for the next 12 years after suffering very badly these past 4 years. 4 years of President Trump followed by 8 years of President Vance sounds pretty damn good to me!

Vance has certainly started to position himself as the heir apparent.

The latest cope I’m seeing on leftist social media, LMAO!

“Trump will be angry that Vance upstaged him”

“Trump will punish Vance for looking and sounding better than him, this was a major mistake picking him”

These people are absolutely broken by Trump and I love it
