2 things can be true at the same time- trump/vance have proven they are a threat to democracy and yes they are indeed both really weird

[PurpleRain]

It’s great to finally see trump and MAGA on the defensive.
VP Harris and her surrogates have done a terrific job taking the political fight to them.

[macspectral]

Tell you friends and family he's really weird. MAGA is irritated.

[Freptboy]

Trump you are now the oldest candidate running for president.

[karolyndurrenmatt]

Trump uses words against people that really apply to him. Now, that's wierd.

[dannmarceau]

Weird isn't the correct adjective; bizarre is more fitting.

[peacenow]

Failure in Chief should talk, he's failed at everything, absolutely everything, even squandering ALL of his inherited and stolen from his niece and nephew's part of the grandpa's family fortune...

Don't waste your vote on a criminal

[PassiveAgressive]

I can’t believe that this is third election cycle we have to put up with Trump’s WEIRDNESS

[steelguitarunionhall]

Many people are saying that JD Vance has been paying hush money payments to a Lazyboy Recliner

[Jo-ocsc]

Trump can’t replace JD Vance, because that would be un-democratic.

[jloiben]

Donald and Vance are weird. Weirdness resonates a lot more than the existential threat they represent. They can be, and are, both

[Dragoninja]

When Trump starts calling you names, that is an Indicator that Trump is SCAREED OF YOU

[nw]

I kind of love this, because Harris is effectively laughing at Trump, and he's got to know that. I'll bet it's driving him up the wall, and he's only going to get weirder and creepier in response.

[matthewwilson]

How about playing the tape of trump telling his voters he doesnt really care about them, just their votes!?!?!

[stringblues]

Kamala on 🔥🔥🔥🔥 wow what a difference so exciting. I hope JD keeps sayin stupid things and old man trump keeps loosing.

[johndowner]

Hannibal Lector, sharks, electricution, windmills, showers. Weird 😅😂

[jdantigua]

Finally, all DEMS are on key. Great that the word is WEIRD that identifies clearly the Party of tRump😂🎉

[privatecom]

Vance and Trump are bunch of weirdos. 😅😂😅

[jerryleeelvisberryrichard]

Offense clap clap offense! The guy is a traitor. That’s beyond enough to vote against him.
