Final (?) Debate thread before the election in 35 days.

Debate begins at 9 PM Eastern, 6 PM Pacific and runs 90 minutes.

Vice Presidential debates are always tricky since nobody has voted for Vice President in living memory.

Expect Vance to attack Walz on his military service.

Expect Walz to attack Vance on the whole “immigrants eating cats and dogs” thing.

Expect Vance to attack Walz on being an assistant coach, at best.

Expect Walz to roll out “Weird!” at least once.

CBS has announced the burden of fact checking will be on the candidates themselves.

    “Do you want to support Catholic hospitals to perform abortions against their will?” FUCKING YES.

        Agreed, but that’s a separate issue. There are Catholic hospitals and while those hospitals exist, they have to be forced to perform abortions if the woman’s life is at risk.

          Agreed. What else can they opt out of based on religion at that point? They could claim they don’t help Muslims due to religious beliefs. They could claim they won’t help women who don’t listen to their husbands.
