Yeah. We watched it for the comedy and it didn't disappoint.
McKee is not good at public speaking, and Ashley Transplant is a master at tap dancing around a question. She’s a female Trump that is gonna bleed this state dry by the time she’s done.
When was the last time she had to worry about paying bills?

Kalus went to the Lyle Lanley School of Political Salesmanship.
McKee saying he wouldn't lay out legal strategy for appealing the truck tolls ruling was silly, like they are going have a surprise moment in court where they spring some zinger out. We know thats not how that works, McKee was just clueless there
I’m taking bets on if she’s elected she’ll use her executive power to pay her cash grab Covid company and then never use it again claiming it’s not effective.
Anywhere I can watch this? New RI resident, I've done a decent amount of research into candidates but debates are something else.
I was honestly impressed with Ashley’s debate skills. Definitely shredded ol Danny.
Real solutions? Not many between the two of them.
Kalus had a mud hole stomped in her last night. She was rattled, frazzled, unprepared and crapped her pants. She was countered on just about everything and didn't know how to respond when countered. She was angry and bitter.
Side note. Gene V sucks and needs to be removed from television
Yeah our governor is a good ball
So you prefer bullshit? Not shocking seeing as you like Kalus.
They’re both awful. So sad that these two are our choices this year. This is why we need rank choice primaries. Literally any of the other Dems would have been better than McKee on the debate stage, and certainly in office. I’m still going to vote for him, because Ashley Kalus is an insincere opportunist riding the coattails of an insurrection for her own personal gain vs McKee who is just a bag of wind but at least he votes the right way on most things. (Not all things though!) this election is sad. RI can do way better. I hope everyone who complains about elections on Reddit gets involved volunteering for campaigns IRL
Wrong. When she's done, which will be Tuesday night, she'll head back to IL, or FL, or maybe whatever state she thinks she can buy an elected seat in when 2024 rolls around. She won't do anything to RI.

Long past time for that to happen. Let him stick to his Limbaugh-esque radio crap.
Have you ever seen this clown's posting history? He lives on bullshit...devours it like it's the last meal he'll ever have.
Agree 100%. I'm so tired of having to choose who I hate the least, rather than someone I actually support.
Agreed
No, and generally I don't bother. The stupid they post is generally enough for me.
Gotcha. It is amusing if you're looking to kill some time. Calling this guy stupid is an insult to stupid people.
That was our first thought when she spurted that line out. Laughable.
He's the worst.

Thank you!
He didn’t even try to hide he has a total boner for the GOP and was not neutral at all.
Every DEMOCRAT in the senate for to fire UNVACCINATED workers everywhere.
Remember that when you are voting next week.
What's your point? To point out that the Republicans didn't care about public health during a pandemic?
He's never been neutral. He thinks he's some huge celebrity when in reality he just has a massive ego.
no, to have enough common sense to not shut down the country over the common cold.
Please show us support for your claim that it was comparable to the common cold during the time period that things were shut down. And I’m not asking for “well I got it and I felt fine” because same here but you don’t see me mistaking anecdotal evidence for mathematically supported data. Sure, maybe now it seems to be comparable to a cold or pneumonia but you cannot support your claim for early on in the pandemic.
yes. Information is out there. hard to find under the suppressed "misinformation" that turns out now, to be true all along.
I thought Ashley came off better, she actually has some plans. But she really lost her cool when she was under the gun. I don’t know how well she would do under stress.
The vaccine did nothing to stop the spread or prevent people from getting COVID. We know this now, and the knee-jerk reaction to fire people for choosing not to get it wasn't the right answer.
Wait is RI getting a monorail???
And a not so subtle streak of bigotry.
It’s biggest strength was that it kept the infected from hospitalization and death. Overwhelming the health care system was always the biggest concern.
Go look at excess deaths over that period of time and let me know how you account for the additional 900k deaths.
when you get in a car accident, suicide, overdose, cancer, etc and its all classified as covid, that may be a reason. you should probably look deeper. also, during that period of time there were no reported flu deaths. explain that to me.
You know this is a Rhode Island sub and Rhode Island does not have a Milwaukee County right?
So I know we’ve seen reports of deaths where covid is listed when they die in the car accident, and that would make for an okay argument that the covid deaths are inflated. However, it does not explain the number of excess deaths over expected or the increase in deaths over the prior years. If the number or excess deaths were more in the ballpark of 50k (which is high end on flu deaths most years), then you could make the argument that it is no more deadly than the flu, but that number is near a million, and I think we can agree that that would require death rates for all other causes to be abnormally accelerated.
What’s his streak of bigotry about?
Previous poster asked for data to support my claim. I provided. Unfortunately we don’t have doctors in RI with enough backbone to speak out. Why??? Have you seen what they’ve been paid. It’s like shooting a gift horse in the mouth.
As a longtime resident thank you for taking the time to learn about your new state!
I've seen limited tv ads/interviews and she just always comes across temperamental. How does someone like that expect to be governor?
