They're both hideous, racist ghouls, but Walz really shit the bed to my understanding (though the majority of AmeriKKKans may or may not care). That "wehrmacht Walz" post elsewhere on Hexbear comes to mind...
Overall I just hope they both die.
I imagine they probably did- I didn't watch the debate (and won't for any such politicians nowadays, listening to modern Hitlers and Goebbels debate for over an hour sounds like hell). The sheer level of mask-off-derangement from the "expansion of Isntreal" comments by Walz, even having looked it up to see the context, was worse than expected, to such a point Vance (predictably racist/etc as it has sounded like he was in the debate) genuinely may as well have sounded like a "puppy" in comparison like the comic in the post shows (though the artist definitely has all the wrong motivations).
Walz felt less polished and made more mistakes but I think Vance lost the debate with 1-2 really bad responses.
Could anything Vance said have topped this? https://hexbear.net/post/3602472?scrollToComments=false
(I'm aware MSM is trying to paint it as a "verbal slip/mistake"- but when you read the context it makes absolutely no sense for it to have been anything but deliberate)
Not morally, but the "You agreed not to fact check" was probably a bigger blunder to the American people than supporting per-emptive genocide.
Could there be anything more American, than being called out for spouting total BS though? Bald eagles probably wept at the sight.
