@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin could only watch the parts without Vance: his footage is too cringe
@MishaVanMollusq @stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin I watched the Vance footage, still trying to uncurl from the tight ball I found myself in.
@stacey_campbell @MishaVanMollusq @stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
normally, I would have something to say about this, but I am really at a loss for words here. Yep, nothing. 
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin "I'm JD Vance, I'm running for vice president" "ok"
@annika @stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
It was soooo close to being a literal ‘Sir, this is a donut shop.’
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin While I relate heavily to the nuclear-powered awkwardness in a very ordinary and non-threatening public place while doing a painfully banal task, I also know that I am in no way suited for a political "face" role.
That was just a bad, bad pick by the (R). In the duel between Midwestern "everyman" figures, Walz actually presents as human, instead of an "Among Us" creepy couch-licking impostor saboteur.
@log @KamalaHarrisWin
Same! I couldn't match Walz's public relations skills if my life depended on it. But I'm not trying to be 2nd in line to the Presidency either!
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
Vance is just SO CRINGE it is painful to watch.
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
I didn’t know replicants ate donuts.

Welcome back to the Vice Presidential debate on CBS. I'm Norah O'Donnell.
Senator Vance, the next question is for you. You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?

"I didn’t know replicants ate donuts."
Clearly, he has no experience ordering donuts...
@mckra1g @stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
What did you really do to, er, I mean, with the cinnamon rolls?
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin What do you think Vance meant when he saw a black woman, and immediately asked "Is there anyone else in here?"
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
Of course he stopped at #Runza Where else would he eat in #Nebraska ?
It’s like stopping for a #Caseys pizza in Iowa, but edible. (I kid, my #Iowa friends.)
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin This almost makes me feel bad for JD... Almost.
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin back of Vance’s head showing the tell-tale signs of getting cozy with his beloved couch.
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
this is amazing
@stevenrosenthal This Vance footage isn't relatable awkward, it is scary awkward
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin "just whatever makes sense", talk about giving up on the most basic thing, and literally has *one* question, and no followup, nothing to create a relationship, that's almost sad
.
@tshirtman @stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin “How long have you been working here?” As if he’s trying to familiarize himself with the unfathomable habits of workers.
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
So good to see Vance the great communicator at work \s...
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
"Whatever makes sense."
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
Good grief, Vance is cringey. I think he was going to get "acquainted" with the cinnamon bubs...
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin
oh lord, just excruciating
an unpopular man with no social graces
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin I'm still cringing at the Vance one and I've seen it several times now
@stevenrosenthal One is a friendly citizen, the other is acting like he owns the place.
@stevenrosenthal @KamalaHarrisWin OMG. Doesn’t Vance know anything about humans or donuts? He’s so cringe. I can’t even imagine him trying to negotiate with foreign powers. “Uhhh. How long you been at war? What do you need to quit? I don’t know. Whatever makes sense.”
