I'm not getting it, because it's a shitty analogy.

A more apt analogy would be if MIZZOU accused KU of academic fraud, KU investigated and found nothing, the NCAA investigated and found nothing, and two independent firms that MIZZOU hired also found nothing.

Then your analogy would be less shitty.

Why is trying to get someone ( someone who is a candidate to be VP ) to admit that Trump lost the 2020 election a WokeGotcha question?
It seems to me it is an extremely important question tied to our Democracy.
Because it is a thinly-veiled ploy to shift the focus to that issue - one that is emotionally-charged and volatile - and away from the subject matter at hand. They know Tampon Tim can't win on substance, so they're going to get people riled up about the 2020 election.
Did you watch the debate?
Walz talked plenty of substance. He addressed the questions directly. He provided examples.
( also your nickname for him just demeans you even more )

And the focus SHOULD be on that issue! Certainly enough for a 5 minute segment!

It's how our election process works - it's the core process of choosing our leader.
If I was interviewing a candidate to be a cartographer and I asked him if the world was flat and he wouldn't answer, well, we have an issue. Acknowledging the world being spherical isn't THE single most important thing of being a cartographer but it's pretty damn important.
This last part.

Except you KNOW the candidate knows the earth is spherical, and that he’s lying to you to curry favor from his boss who makes money off selling “WARNING: EDGE OF THE WORLD” signs.

Knowingly lying is SO much worse than merely being wrong.

Not when the narcissist in question is the only fit candidate who is running. I refuse to accept the premise that we elect an unqualified dimwit neo-socialist just because the other candidate is an a-hole.
Why not? It seems to be exactly what you're doing. You're perfectly fine declaring Trump to be a "fit candidate" despite the fact that he is an ignorant racist, rapist, scumbag who is only supported by other world leaders who are also scumbags because you don't like the other candidate.
Sometimes you need an a-hole on your side to make sure things come out the right way. We've established that Giggles has nothing to offer. It's not difficult math.

You ought to know, based on our exchange regarding Jason Bean last year, that when I'm wrong, I admit it.

Explain the analogy then.
UNC investigated, yes, but they found wrongdoing.
Faculty was punished/fired. Reforms were made.

"It was a wrongdoing that could have and should have been stopped much earlier," said Chancellor Carol Folt.

True.
And, Christ almighty, throwing a hissy fit over NOT being allowed to lie should be entirely disqualifying.

We knew Vance lied about brown people in Springfield for personal gain.

We knew that he knew he was lying about brown people in Springfield all along. We knew that he even admitted to lying about brown people in Springfield for personal gain. We knew that he has such disdain for our laws that he declared himself the arbiter of what degree of "legal" the brown people in Springfield are or are not.

What we did not know, until last night, is that he feels entitled to lie for personal gain. That he is offended by the mere possibility of being gently nudged in the direction of the truth.

He is a snowflake's snowflake.

And while he might have the cognitive ability to be a President, he doesn't have the character or the temperament to be trusted to watch your cactus over a long weekend.

The funny part about all of this is that, if you guys had any confidence in your candidate, you’d be full of mirth and merriment.

Your oUtRAgE belies a sense that we’re headed back to better times for Americans rather than the Potemkin village Brandon and Giggles erected over the last 3 1/2 years and that you won’t get away with stealing this election.

Get on board, get out of the way, or get run over. It’s all the same to me.

That you bundle all of Trump's issues up into just "being a necessary a-hole" tells me a lot about you so thank you that glimpse into what we're really dealing with when we interact with you.

I don’t really care much about how the sausage is made. I just want it to taste good and be on my plate.

It’s why they keep trying to kill him. I’m also waiting for the Internet to go down nationwide - oh, right about November 5th.

Ah, the infamous "they" despite the actual facts about who "they" have been. And JFC, "the internet to go down nationwide"? Do you not understand how the internet works?

It’s also revisionist history in the extreme to pre-suppose that bad actors would be D-aligned.
