One sided fact checking is called propaganda 😊

[RJ-ds]

Vance is impressive, articulate and brilliant.Democrats gaslighting is ridiculously insane.

[advocate]

Walz was a joke. Looked like a rabbit in headlights most of the time and - of course - his frequent lying destroys his credibility. British pov.

[randygault]

The CBS moderation was just as bad as the ABC moderation. The "fact checking" was almost entirely against Trump-Vance. The questions were almost entirely designed to cover territory favorable to Democrats.

Where you might be confused is that the moderators, both middle aged white women, seemed to despise both white male candidates. I think that's genuine loathing and resentment. The sneering. The smugness. That talking down. It gave the impression of being even-handed, emotionally, which partially hides what they actually did.

Why was he the VP pick?
B.O. “who’s dumber than me”
Biden “who’s dumber than me”
Kamala “who’s dumber than me”

Robby must have loved being on here and talking to an intelligent and sane lady instead of a condescending and rude female child like he has to put up with on Rising. Bring back Robby more. He and Emily make a great pair. This was awesome.

Walz is shaking his head 'no' after Vance says 'let the voters decide'. To me, that is telling.

[johnbuckner]

Glad Vance left Margaret flat on the highway after she "fact checked" him.

Soooo tired of ministry of truth, and their smug control of the narrative. 🤮

[WinstonSmithGPT]

Literally every outlet is admitting Vance wiped the floor with him.

[theglanconer]

Robby is 100% right; the MSM/Democrats are beyond help

[randygault]

Vance's answer on abortion should have been that the Constitution makes clear that abortion was never a federal issue, and decision is now in the hands of the States where it belongs, and in every single one of those States, woman are the voting majority. Women are not a monolith. And we have known for decades that more women support limits on abortion than men do. There is no abortion limitation useless women want it. The women of Minnesota made one choice. Those in Texas made another. That is America. It's not my call. It's not Trump's call, and it's not Harris"s call.

[ryandeffley]

Trump has done two debates going against Biden and then Harris. Also back in August he offered two other debates 9/4 FOX and 9/25 NBC to Kamala and she declined both.

Yet no one in the media is calling her out for passing on those and they're not admitting to obvious bias with ABC or CBS. So I don't blame Trump to be honest.

[spencer]

Every time JD Vance said "we need to do better" = super credible and humble approach. Bravo.

[dougmoore]

I noticed the one sided fact checking also too. JD made sense to me, Walz sounds like nonsense to me.

[dalecash]

Walz answer to the Tiananmen square revealed that he went to China to learn how to govern. Let that sink in...

[pweb]

Disagree with Robby. This debate DID matter. It showed many things. How presidential JD is, and would be a moderating influence on DT- important for the undecideds . it showed that the Main stream media have been lying about JD and how weird he is.. The Trump team is looking more and more formidable, and the kamala team, more and more flighty and inconsistent

[PinkDesertEagle]

Im sick of the bias and one-sided fact-checking too

[cheechalker]

Who chose Tim Walz?
I’m sorry but he is the epitome of ‘weird.’

[drdnaut]

Robbie apparently has never heard of the abraham accords? Trumps track record in the Middle East is beyond any other presidents in modern history.

[Oudeis]

As an isolated incident, Walz' "misstatement" about his witnessing the Tiananmen protests would be minor; but his three other known exaggerations or distortions establish a pattern of needless lying for negligible political gain. It shows a habitual predisposition for lying that seriously taints his credibility in more serious matters.

For example, he stubbornly denied that he helped enact legislation that removed protections for babies who survived botched abortions. Most political "lies" are subjectively so, hanging on context, wording, qualifications, etc. What gets politicians blasted are objectively false lies, i.e., lies that are false on their face from the facts.
