I keep hearing how Vance did so well in in the debate? [View all]

How could this be possible? He lied, he didn’t answer any questions with substance, he was arrogant and condescending. He talked down to the moderators and Walz.

To me that is not winning anything, but the attention of one man. He is a groomed mouthpiece. There were issues that weren’t addressed & I would have liked him to answer. One was “childless cat woman” or statement about Trump years ago? He was not a person I could trust if he were to be next in line for the role as president, period! As the pundits said “he was slick” and to me “slick” is another term for “asshole”.

Walz has the temperament to take the role if need to be! He’s relatively quick thinking and he’s the type to get things done just like Kamala.

Vance is a weasel who has no idea what he’s doing! Period!
