Vice President Harris’s campaign posted most of Tuesday’s debate on the social platform X, referring to it as a new ad.

“Our newest ad just dropped,” the campaign captioned its Wednesday video post.

After Harris’s closing statement in the debate hosted by ABC News, the video is cut off to omit Trump’s closing statement, and a photo of the vice president pops up featuring a voiceover in which she says “I approve this message.”

Harris was seen by many as having a good debate Tuesday night, a reversal of fortunes for Democrats compared to President Biden’s negatively-received performance in June. Sixty-three percent of registered voters in a CNN flash poll said the vice president performed better on the debate stage, while about 37 percent said the same about Trump.

The 37% sayin’ the same about trump, are those that would follow him to hell - literally. He could kill a kitten in front of them, they wouldn’t mind at all.

Very smart move. Killing the cat before a dirty illegal immigrant cannot. Super smart.

— because let’s be honest they aren’t worried about pets; it’s that illegal immigrants are involved it.

Which, let’s also be clear; they are not involved in any way.

I really wish she got to go after Trump… His ending statement/question was the absolute perfect opportunity to stress the importance of voting for more than just the president!

“Why haven’t you done all the things you say you want to yet?”

“People of the US: give me a Senate and House that will work with me and we can!”

It seemed like a mic drop for him but that’s only because people don’t understand all Republicans exist for is obstruction of democratic plans and to benefit the ownership class. Have a Republican lead House/Senate? You’ll get nothing meaningful.

I fully agree, but a fully democratically owned house and Senate under Obama was pretty damn disappointing.

That’s been the standard for a long time though, on both sides of the aisle.

But it’s the only reason we have the ACA. Which, while only ok, is so much better than not having the ACA.

Are you a person who doesn’t appreciate the significance of the ACA, or are you a person that doesn’t realize that the supermajority only lasted something like 11 weeks (during which they managed to barely get the ACA to happen)?

And he never corrected himself. Kind of strange, but I guess time is at a premium.

I noticed that she also called him “vice-president Trump” one time and didn’t catch it.

But as usual, it’s not a “both sides are the same” thing, when she slips up once and he does it 50 times.

Clearly she wasn’t referring to the office of Vice President, but was acknowledging that he was a president beset with numerous vices

Useless noncontributory observation of the day. In the article, why is the “a” in “Wallace” randomly bolded…?

It’s a trigger from a Deep State operative! It means they’re going to start doing forced gender reassignment surgery on gay frogs in prison.

In prison? I thought that it was happening in the basement of a pizza restaurant that doesn’t have a basement.

My guess would be the author originally typed “Wallece” and an editor corrected it but the bold slipped in?

I dunno, I’m just pulling that out of my ass.

Try opening it in a browser instead of the app, just tried it on my phone and it still opened right up. Aside from that look for the video of the debate, that’s literally all it is.
