Vance and Walz Square Off in Civil Vice Presidential Debate
(Learfield News/New York City, NY) — The vice presidential debate between Governor Tim Walz and Senator J. D. Vance in New York hosted by CBS wasn’t more politics than policy as some analysts predicted.
They clashed over issues including abortion, climate change, child care, inflation, immigration and the January 6th insurrection, but were civil and respectful of each other.
Democrats are blasting Republican VP candidate Vance for refusing to answer whether he accepts the results of former President Donald Trump’s loss in the 2020 election.
Walz called himself a “knucklehead at times” for his misleading claim about being in Hong Kong during turbulence surrounding the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.
Both candidates spent a lot of time criticizing the top of the other presidential ticket – Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Trump.
