I am very concerned about what I have learned about @VP Mike Pence's debate preparations.
It's an incomplete view, no doubt, but also a worrying one, given the stakes.
There are a few hours left, so read this thread and RT if you want someone on VP's team to see this.

@KamalaHarris excels at set pieces like her attack on @JoeBiden last year ("that little girl was me").
She is 100% certain to attack Pence on COVID.
"You were in charge of the coronavirus task force. But you couldn't even protect the president."
Pence better be ready.

What's @VP's answer on coronavirus? It can't just be the usual about ventilators & vaccines.
It has to start with the fact that @realDonaldTrump is getting better, and note that Biden's proposals have copied Trump's plans with one crucial exception: Trump values freedom.

Biden, Harris, and most Democratic governors want to shut down the economy indefinitely. They have also closed churches, trampling America's religious freedom. Meanwhile, they forced nursing homes to accept coronavirus cases without testing, condemning seniors to death.

The response on coronavirus has to be aggressive. It's not a small part of the debate. The media have their articles written already; they will just fill in Harris's quotes and ignore the rest of the debate. Pence has to surprise by coming out strong -- civil, but strong.

I am told that Pence is planning to attack "hypocrisy" in Harris's record. Nobody (except pundits) cares about "hypocrisy." Too abstract. Talk about her support for ending cash bail and releasing violent criminals. Talk about her persecution of journalist @daviddaleiden.

Scott Walker was Pence's debate prep coach, and apparently there were a few others. I don't know if any were black women. That worries me. @VP will not be debating an old white guy. The unwritten rules are different. He has to attack more in sorrow than in anger. Will he?

The weakest point for Harris -- for all Democrats, including Biden and Senate candidates like Mark Kelly -- is that they don't want to answer key questions: will they pack the courts? end the filibuster? bail out the blue states?
Pence has to ask if the moderator won't.

Trump let Biden get away with his usual hoaxes ( https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/09/30/pollak-six-hoaxes-trump-failed-to-debunk-in-the-first-debate/). Pence can't let Harris do the same, or attack his Christianity. He needs to step back and say: "Before I answer that, let me debunk a vicious lie that my opponent and Joe Biden have been spreading."

This is too important to lose. Trump trails in the polls and the country faces socialist revolution in November. Cheap shots about Tupac ( https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2020/09/26/kamala-harris-says-deceased-rapper-tupac-is-the-best-rapper-alive/) etc. won't cut it.
Voters have to walk away thinking Harris isn't ready to be president. That's the task.
