I'm happy that we have Harris/Walz vs the disaster that is Trump and JD and I know that Kamala and Walz will (verbally) kick ass, BUT people grade Trump on such a curve now. I worry that if Kamala or Walz stumble the tiniest way or don't completely live up to the "they're gonna wipe the floor with them!!" expectations in any way the media will do the most about it.

i think that’s a concern for kamala bc a) misogyny b) the thing about grading trump on a curve. but i think for the VP debate regardless of the media narrative walz is gonna come across well if he manages to be Not Obviously A Total Freak bc vance is so clearly a deranged loser who has lost the ability to understand what comes across as appealing to people who aren’t terminally online creeps

We saw that in the Biden and Trump debate. Yes Biden did awful. But Trump wasn’t coherent. But nobody cares.

If Trump can string two words together and not insult, I feel the media is going to call it a success.

At least with Walt/Vance debate, he’s not graded on a curve. But I think it’s going to be a harder debate.

and not insult

i don't think that's even necessary. as long as he doesn't call kamala a bitch or the n word on stage they'll say he did well. van jones will say it's the moment he became presidential. and the rest of us will be like "what the fuck are you nutjobs talking about? he sounded absolutely insane!"

No one wants to see this guy

Question: if you do a campaign rally, and less than 20 people show up, is it considered a campaign rally? Asking for JD Vance. 🤣😅😂 pic.twitter.com/9jkRlStB51

JD Vance was the pick when Trump was trouncing Biden in the polls. He was clearly the pick of ppl on Trump's team like Don Jr and Steve Bannon. And while the election seemed like it was going to be an easy win, they probably wasn't much motivation to push back on Vance as VP by the people on the campaign who have better political instincts and would probably have preferred someone like DeSantis.

Then Biden dropped out and Kamala is surging in the polls and Trump is stuck with the albatross that is JD Vance around his neck

lol
