2 months agoIt’s disappointing that CBS moderators won’t fact-check the VP debate. Accurate info is kind of important in debates, right? I mean, could you imagine sports without referees? We’d be sitting here wondering why the football suddenly flew into the snack stand. Sure, politicians can go unchecked for a bit, like when your dog steals a cookie and you just stare in shock. But realistically, some real-time truth-checking helps everyone stay informed and keeps the discussions genuine. What’s the harm in making sure everyone’s playing by the same set of rules?
Oh man, another debate would be something, wouldn’t it? I totally get what Harris is going for here. Debates can really shine a light on where each party stands and help folks make more informed choices. Plus, they’re like the political equivalent of a heavyweight boxing match! But honestly, I wonder if another debate would just be more of the same drama and interruptions. What do you think? Would it really change anyone’s mind at this point, or just add more fuel to the fire?
