This was completely one sided in favor of Kaine. Like, it's not even close.

He looked terrible at the beginning, but he looks like he's dominating right now. It's like the caffeine buzz wore off.

 

[DOWN]

Pence: "Lives are precious"

Kaine: "Mexican and minority lives?"

Pence: "Hang on now"

basically

 

[Slayven]

Pence just wants it to end now

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness..as long as you do what I say, woman!

 

[LifEndz]

Why don't you trust women to make that decision?

Damn. Just murdered him.

 

[Alcander]

Lol pence. "heh. yeah thats true"

 

[FIREKNIGHT2029]

I'm gonna whip out my Mexican thing after this debate xD

 

[broncobuster]

Love it every time Kaine says Pence can't defend Trump.

 

[Ithil]

Pence has been bombing for this last few minutes.

 

[Mass Effect]

Pence ruined himself dragging out that abortion argument. Should have just dropped it.

 

[Pastry]

Can someone summarize the Bible quote exchange?

Pence got on his knees and then Kaine slapped him with that Mexican thing.

 

[Bonen no Max'd]

Wait why is it a sixty-four thousand dollar question? Why that number?

 

[TheFatOne]

Everyone getting caught in "interruptions" acting like Pence has said anything of substance that wasn't a straight up lie

Not only that, but they are pretending like Pence just sat there and never interrupted. He didn't early, but that change about 25 minutes in.

 

[JJDubz]

Who the fuck helped Pence prepare that didn't expect him to have to defend the outlandish shit that Trump has said?

 

[rekameohs]

64,000 dollar question.

Sick reference, bro. Your references are out of control.

 

[Owzers]

Deplorables closing imminent

 

[Murder. She Wrote]

Shame Kaine didn't bring up LGBT issues, such an easy attack against Pence

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Kaine started shaky

But goddamn if he didn't reel it in and fucking slay Pence.

 

[dysonEA]

Kaine is killing it. He really has got Pence not even able to offer a basic defense of Trump

*rolls eyes* Because he keeps cutting him off before he can offer that defense.

 

[King Tubby]

On perception/temperament, I think Pence wins. On actual substance of argument, Kaine destroyed him. I wonder which will win out.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

Kaine being interrupting in the beginning is old news now. He straight up demolished Pence.

 

[rSpooky]

Kaine is not bringing Pence down on his governor history because it is ALL ABOUT TRUMP!..

This is why!

 

[Ferrio]

Wait why is it a sixty-four thousand dollar question? Why that number?

Famous gameshow.

 

[Version 3.0]

"He said many of them are good people."

He said "some" you fucking prick.

No, it was "some, I assume", as if he'd never actually heard of one, but maybe one exists somewhere....maybe.

 

[manakel]

Saying that Kaine is absolutely killing it and winning this debate is nothing more than confirmation bias. Are you serious? I loathe the thought of a Trump/Pence presidency but interrupting and screaming about taxes all night is winning a debate now?

They both were trash tonight.

[B-Dubs]

Who the fuck helped Pence prepare that didn't expect him to have to defend the outlandish shit that Trump has said?

How do you defend that shit?

 

[Kthulhu]

He looked terrible at the beginning, but he looks like he's dominating right now. It's like the caffeine buzz wore off.

He started out with a stone medal and now he's getting pure platinums.

From the fullness of the heart, the mouth speaks.

Matthew 12:34

 

[yukianderson]

He keep hitting him with the jab of you can't defend Trump, taxes, Russia. All the debate the job was hit hard. Non stop.

 

[Envelope]

"he's not a polished politician"

and

"why don't you trust women to make that choice for themselves"

just sunk pence so hard

damn

 

[psychotron]

Who the fuck helped Pence prepare that didn't expect him to have to defend the outlandish shit that Trump has said?

No preparation on the planet could help you defend that shit.

 

[WedgeX]

We can *hmrmrmrmrmrmrgmhmhmhhmhmh* America's place in the world

 

[Aaronrules380]

*rolls eyes* Because he keeps cutting him off before he can offer that defense.

Pence has had ample time to defend Trump on a number of issues and instead deflected or dodged the questions

 

[RedNalgene]

Wait why is it a sixty-four thousand dollar question? Why that number?

It's from a game show.

 

[Hours Left]

*rolls eyes* Because he keeps cutting him off before he can offer that defense.

Pence has nothing.

 

[Tom Nook Sawyer]

*rolls eyes* Because he keeps cutting him off before he can offer that defense.

Have you not heard him blabbering on for entire monologues? He's had plenty of opportunities

 

[rtcn63]

Who the fuck helped Pence prepare that didn't expect him to have to defend the outlandish shit that Trump has said?

They should've just given him a piece of white paper

 

[Nairume]

Who the fuck helped Pence prepare that didn't expect him to have to defend the outlandish shit that Trump has said?

The fake fortune tellers that also worked on the GOP website.

There's no way to defend the shit Trump says. That's the problem. It's better to deflect.

 

[Genryu]

*rolls eyes* Because he keeps cutting him off before he can offer that defense.

Even if he didn't cut him off, he wouldn't have a defense for it and would just change the subject.

 

[Rayis]

Kaine started rocky but then did amazingly well to the point that Pence had no words.

 

[jfkgoblue]

Abortion topic is useless, it's pretty much split down the middle for pro-life vs pro-choice and neither side will change their minds on the issue. Pence needed to establish very clearly he was pro life to help with evangelicals who cannot stand Trump.

 

[Socreges]

Why wasn't climate change one of the questions?

 

[wachie]

I think Pence won this one handedly. The interruptions super killed Kaine, I don't know what he was thinking, he was able to hold himself together when it was his actual turn to talk but his interjections made him look Trump-like and that's awful when you're supposed to be the "reasonable" ticket.

The good news is that this is the only VP debate and VP debates don't matter. And Trump's already proven he's physically incapable of staying on topic during the presidential debates so even if he's able to pull up his pants a bit during the next two Clinton should still pull ahead.

It's hilarious reading these posts saying that Kaine lost due to interruptions, that's not how it's won or lost. These people have literally no clue if they think that's the end all.

 

[Xamtheking]

CHRIST

 

[alternade]

You guys I think the reason the lbgt issue didn't come up is so that Kaine didn't have to defend her LTTP record on gay marriage.

 

[Alucrid]

if i didn't care about any important issues, simply voting for hillary clinton to lessen the chance of me hearing the word "hoosier" for the next 8 years would be worth it

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

*rolls eyes* Because he keeps cutting him off before he can offer that defense.

Oh please. He's had tons of chances, then changes the subject. The only attempt he made landed like a wet fart: "He's not a polished politician."

Give me a fucking break.
