JD Vance Vs Tim Walz: VP debate between JD Vance and Tim Walz: 10 things to know
[ad_1]
JD Vance and Tim Walz will debate Tuesday evening at CBS News
Donald Trump’s running mater JD Vance will debate Kamala Harris running mate Tim Walz on Tuesday in the vice presidential debate which does not matter much but this time a JD Vance versus Tim Walz will be spectacle for the fireworks that started as soon as their names were announced as the VP candidates. It will be a best selling author versus a teacher-turned Congressman — both having their military credentials.
Here are 10 things to know about the vice presidential debate
- How to watch: The debate will be hosted by CBS News at the CBS Broadcast Center in New York. Moderated by CBS Evening News anchor and managing editor Norah O’Donnell and chief foreign affairs correspondent Margaret Brennan, the debate will begin at 9 pm ET.
- Debate rules: Tim Walz will stand behind the podium on stage left, which is the right side on the screen. JD Vance’s podium will be in the opposite side. Tim Walz will be introduced first and there will be no opening statements.
- 90-minute debate with two breaks: The debate will last for 90 minutes with two breaks of four minutes each.
- No live audience: Like the presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, there will be no live audience in this debate too.
- Mics muted? In the presidential debate the mics of the non-speaking candidates were muted so that there is no interruption. In the
VP debate , mics will not be muted but CBS News reserves the right to mute the candidates’ microphones. - Mock debates: JD Vance’s debate braintrust includes his wife Usha Vance, three of his political aides and Trump senior adviser Jason Miller. Vance has been practicing mock debates with Rep. Tom Emmer (R-Minn.), who’s been studying Walz’s gubernatorial and congressional debates and doing opposition research on Vance, Axios reported.
- Walz’s debate brain trust: Walz’s debate practice team is largely made up of advisers to the national campaign, including the Harris campaign’s communication director, as the New York Times reported. His longtime aide and Minnesota chief of staff Chris Schmitter remains involved.
- Why Vance vs Tim Walz is so high-stake: JD Vance dominated the news cycle for all the wrong reasons ever since he was named by Donald Trump as the running mate. His past statements are goldmine for the opposition but Vance put his foot down and didn’t budge. He questioned Tim Walz’s ‘stolen valor’ when Tim Walz claimed he carried weapons in war while he never served in war.The debate has become very high-stake as this will be the last debate this season. Donald Trump declined to debate again with Kamala Harris. So this is the last chance for the Trump campaign to correct political fumbles, though many of them are credited to JD Vance.
- Who’s a better debater? JD and Tim Walz will be debating for the first time against each other but JD has debated in past and he loves debates. “JD Vance is aggressive and bold in his assertions. His pugnacity often leads to over-the top claims, but he is also careful to present more polite and thoughtful than the caricature of him portrayed by opponents,” NYT wrote about JD’s debate style
- Walz’s line would be…: A CNN report quoting people involved said Walz may try a line that originated when Harris was preparing for a vice presidential debate before Joe Biden dropped out: asking Vance what promises he made to Trump so the former president wouldn’t send an angry mob after him with a gallows, like Mike Pence experienced on January 6.
