Glenn Beck calls out Mike Pence for denying Donald Trump's comments at debate: 'Wow, really?!?!?!'
October 5, 2016
Conservative talk-show host Glenn Beck on Tuesday night leveled criticism against Republican vice-presidential nominee Mike Pence for denying comments Donald Trump has made in the past year.
"Wow, really?!?!?" Beck rhetorically asked on Facebook. "You WON tonight. You really did well keeping your cool but ... really? Trump hasn't said any of those things?"
Beck continued: "Come on ... you and everyone know he said ALL of those things. You claim they are the insult kings? Please. I am so disappointed in you."
The conservative media mogul, one of the leading members of the Never Trump movement, said he had "always thought" the Indiana governor was "honorable."
"There are better and acceptable answers, but you chose to simply lie," Beck wrote. "We are living in a fact free world and it is sad when a man like Mike Pence falls so low."
Hillary Clinton's campaign also highlighted Pence's refusal at the debate to acknowledge Trump's some of comments when confronted with them by his Democratic counterpart, Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia. The campaign released a video showing Pence's denials followed immediately by video of Trump making the comments in question.
Beck also criticized Kaine for his debate performance, homing in on his "constant interruptions" of the moderator and Pence.
"With all due respect: SHUT UP!" Beck wrote, comparing the Democratic vice-presidential nominee to "one of those little yappy dogs."
A CNN/ORC instant poll found Pence to be the debate winner over Kaine. Forty-eight percent of the 472 registered voters surveyed said Pence emerged as the winner versus 42% who thought the Democratic vice-presidential nominee won the political showdown.
Tuesday night's political duel in Virginia was the only scheduled vice-presidential debate of 2016.

We Are Begging the Hillary Clinton Campaign: Stop It With These Terrible, Terrible One-Liners

Early in the Sept. 26 presidential debate, Hillary Clinton rolled out what seemed to be a rehearsed line about Donald Trump’s economic plan, calling it “Trumped-up trickle down economics.” She delivered the phrase with the pleased demeanor of someone who believes they are laying down a devastating burn, then repeated it later. Fact-check: It wasn’t a devastating burn. It was a zero out of 10 on the burn scale.
Tuesday night at the vice presidential debate, Tim Kaine also tried some zingers, and they were also bad. You can see them above. The first:
Mike Pence: But there’s a reason why people question the trustworthiness of Hillary Clinton and that’s because they’re paying attention. The reality is when she was secretary of state, senator, she had the Clinton Foundation accepting contributions from foreign governments—
Tim Kaine: You are Donald Trump’s apprentice!
Woooooooooooof. The second:
Kaine: On the economy, there’s a fundamental choice for the American electorate. Do you want a you’re hired president in Hillary Clinton or a you’re fired president in Donald Trump? I don’t think that’s such a hard choice.
Ugh.
Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine need to Pokémon Go Fire Whoever Thinks It’s a Good Idea to Use Time Preparing for Debates by Coming Up With These Lines, Which Are Terrible.

If we go back to the polling data back in 2008, 2008 Democratic Presidential Nomination, the first primary debate is when Obama establishes himself as a real force as opposed to being just that black guy:
and his campaigning didn't let up
Throw in her stance against gay marriage, her total fuckup with Libya (to note as of today: Obama DOJ drops charges against alleged broker of Libyan weapons ), the email wipe (check out some of the Wikileaks docs), etc. and you wonder how in the world is she qualified to be president? Is it any wonder why the Clintons got Trump to throw the election?
If Trump wanted to win, Hillary is not difficult to take down.

I didn't realize a professional politician could come across as more unlikeable than Hillary Clinton but Kaine gave it a real shot.
