Howard University alumnae say they can't wait to watch fellow alumna and Democratic vice-presidential nominee Kamala Harris in Wednesday's high-stakes debate against Vice President Mike Pence

WASHINGTON - Wednesday’s vice presidential debate has taken on an outsized and perhaps unprecedented significance, with questions about President Donald Trump’s health now looming over the U.S. election less than a month away.

Pence needs to show the public he is ready to step in as president if the situation requires, while also defending the Trump administration’s handling of a 7-month-old health crisis that has killed more than 210,000 Americans. “This debate is different,” said Christopher Devine, an expert on the vice presidency at the University of Dayton. “Some people may be worrying about Mike Pence and how he may perform if called upon. And there are questions about Joe Biden’s ability to stay healthy.”Reflecting concerns over keeping both running mates virus-free, a plexiglass barrier will separate them at the debate venue on the campus of the University of Utah.

Masks were also mandatory at the first presidential debate on Sept. 29, but some people, including members of Trump’s family, removed them. Pence will be charged with trying to slow the Biden-Harris momentum, something Trump was unable to do in his unruly debate in Cleveland. A Biden campaign official told Reuters the campaign was prepared for Pence to launch attacks on Harris suggesting she is to the left of the mainstream of the Democratic Party.

Her advantage: She’s not getting her talking points from the White House.

U mean like what tulsi did to her?

I think they are in for a surprise. Steady Pence is no rookie with a ton of experience.

Can't see that happening since Kamala Harris has Indian blood in her. Pence looked way too bland for her taste buds. 😂😂😂😂

My ass, Pence ripped Kaine a new asshole during their debates and Harris didn't even get a dinner and a movie when Tulsi fucked her on live cable television. [Insert Kamala sucking like her way to the top here]

He will pull out just before with a fake case of covid. Guarantee it!

Do you think most of america forgot how she debates? Making wild accusations like she did against Biden only to later excuse it away saying 'it was a debate' when pressed by Stephen Colbert

Cant wait for Pence to ask her if she still thinks Biden is racist.

She is a component woman. It shouldn't be difficult to wipe the floor with Pence. As long as she anticipates his republican antics of diversion and lies.

She’s a man-eater. Eaten many men before him.

KamalaHarris can you please get him to make a commitment, on live TV, that as head of the Covid Task Force and the VP, that they will be 100% transparent and honest about Covid in the WH, past, present, and future. If he cannot and will try dancing around it, keep pressing him!!

Oh she’s got this! 💫

Mike Pence is the man, Heels up Harris don't have a chance

Ohhhh yeah KamalaHarris

Nobody gives a fuck. And people who do give a fuck would kept kept aside no matter who wins!

.... ontday aiseray xpectationseay 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Has he figured out how to lure her into range of his breath weapon yet?

I can already imagine their debate will be like this; She will hit him with the handling of pandemic and then he will hit her back with economy, socialized health care and far left agenda.

It “reels”. That is not objective reporting. It is opinion.

👸🏻How is she going to debate with mask on, the debate must go on!

Why did she call on people to donate money to bail out rioters?

Why did she call on people to donate money to bail out rioters?

Put on your gown, your gloves, your mask and your face shield. This VP debate is going to be a blood bath. PenceIsAFreak VPDebate

Surprised mother will let him be alone on stage with a woman

Trump is not affected He is just elusive

CIVIL WAR WILL BE YEAR 2024 ...

Pence is 'leading' the Coronavirus Task Force.🙄More like a Task Farce.

It’s the flu, on with the debates! VoteRedToSaveAmerica

He’s barely spoken in the last 3-4 years. Pretty cool that we’ll get to hear him try and defend his whole hiding behind Trump approach 🤞🏽

Ist die Howard University Scientology Frei? Scientology ist der Feind der Menschheit! Meiner Meinung nach, steckt die Sekte auch hinter 9/11! Bill and Hillary Clinton are Scientologists! Bush, Obama.... Die wahren Demokraten 😁

College graduate 😂😂

He'd better wear a diaper because she's gonna make him shit his pants!

Well if shana says it Then no one cares

That's not proper English, just so people are aware. An apostrophe and the letter 's' indicate a contraction for 'she is,' which has been omitted in this case therefore removing the verb and rendering the phrase incoherent.

Did she get high and listen to Tupac with Kamel also?

We should ask TulsiGabbard her thoughts.

Be ready for what's coming! Obey God!

Haha crazy democrats

Is it true that Pence wants to sit? 😂😂

Biden wants to see young women when they dcace as 4 YO kids. This Biden guy is confused and wrong for America. Why the Great nation America needs a 78 YO man that talks like a confused man? What other nations will think about America having a cofused Biden as a president?

Now looming? Really? Trump looks fine to me.

Funny that when Hillary Clinton was visibly unwell (coughing fits, falling down, weird twitchy spasms) it was a 'conspiracy theory.' Now, Trump is visibly healthy, and the conspiracy theories abound from the other side.

Man Pence is going to get slaughtered. Only thing is he will not do as bad as Trump

And trump just handed the economic vote right to the dems so long they can address it to appeal to the general masses..and dems are good at being “for the people”. Looking forward to this one!

Trump has saved USA from more severe situation And he has been able to save economy too. Fake media becoming desperate Why? Because they see Trump sure win.

I can’t wait.....Kamala is gonna make Pence call her Mommy by the time it’s over. And mother’s going to be pissed

I’ll bet they can’t wait, wanting see her beat the white guy. It’s all racist.

They didn't have any higher chairs for them?

OllyOllyInFree You mean HeelsUpHarris standing instead of kneeling, bent over or laying butt naked on a desk?
