They should have run a more normal candidate.

If convicted felons are not allowed to vote, then they shouldn't be allowed to run for the Presidency.

Kamala Harris should bring a full can of Lysol and spray it at Pence whenever he starts talking.

Since the Lincoln Project comes up quite a bit in this thread . . .

Steve Schmidt and Rick Wilson, Republican operatives/pit bulls and founders of the Lincoln Project, are responsible for the scathe. Schmidt tweeted a screed today (link posted in TIO) which was fun. Look at the first founder though.

Just watched the VP debate. Wow, what a 'normal', civilized event!

I thought Harris' most difficult moment was the avoidance of the 'court packing issue', and Pence's weakest moment was his complete avoidance of the 'pre-existing conditions' explanation - he didn't give one. Overall, it was 'almost' like two normal people having a debate - what a shock!

I didn't see it moving the needle much.

Sorry, I'm not following this! I just looked in TIO, and don't see anything relevant - which thread? I did a google for 'steve schmidt' and 'twitter' but not finding anything obvious (but I don't follow Twitter so not sure how to find it).

If you didn't know better, you'd almost think the VP debate was the presidential candidates debate, and the Trump and Biden debate was an SNL skit the way Trump behaved.

They should have an instant fact checker machine that activates a buzzer as soon as a participant screws up.

A buzzer? How about an electrified anal prong?
