Nov 2023 Mod notice:
There may be other, more specific, threads about some aspects of US politics, but this one tends to act as a hub for all sorts of related news and information, so it's usually one of the busiest OTC threads.
If you're new to OTC, it's worth reading the Introduction to On-Topic Conversations
and the On-Topic Conversations debate guidelines
before posting here.
Rumor-based, fear-mongering and/or inflammatory statements that damage the quality of the thread will be thumped. Off-topic posts will also be thumped. Repeat offenders may be suspended.
If time spent moderating this thread remains a distraction from moderation of the wiki itself, the thread will need to be locked. We want to avoid that, so please follow the forum rules
when posting here.
In line with the general forum rules, 'gravedancing' is prohibited here. If you're celebrating someone's death or hoping that they die, your post will get thumped. This rule applies regardless of what the person you're discussing has said or done.

@Beary: Community policing very broadly means law enforcement works to build strong relationships with the community on and off the beat to establish a level of trust and rapport, using community support systems as a tool to reduce the likelihood of crimes happening and reduce misunderstandings between the police and citizens.

I hope the topic of LGBT rights comes up - that might be something that Kaine can really hammer Pence on.
Oh God! Natural light!Kaine is basically just making the point of what Trump has said time and time again, however he's also coming across as aggressive. It comes down to if Kaine's aggression does more damage than Trump's record does.
“And the Bunny nails it!” ~ Gabrael “If the UN can get through a day without everyone strangling everyone else so can we.” ~ Cyran@No Name: That's funny, because one of my favorite descriptions of Pence was that he looked like he was about to introduce legislation to outlaw the X-Men.
Oh God! Natural light!

Unfortunately, I do think Pence is coming off better here.
