WASHINGTON (AP) — The first and only vice presidential debate between Ohio Senator JD Vance and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz featured an often orderly, policy-focused and even civil dialogue between the two men seeking to serve as the next president’s second in command.
One of the sharpest comments came from a debate moderator.
JD Vance is a bigger danger to democracy than Donald Trump. Vance makes clear his dislike of cats, women and immigrants, but his terrible ideas on those topics are the tip of the iceberg.
On September 30, Rachel Maddow put a spotlight JD Vance's anti-democratic views. The man who is the GOP candidate for vice president has some very disturbing and radical views on how to lead our country.
The 90 minute debate begins at 9 pm Eastern and will have two four-minute commercial breaks.
Via CBS News:
There will be no audience — a measure also implemented during the two previous presidential debates.
There will be no opening statements.
Unlike the presidential debates, a candidate's microphone will not be muted when their opponent is speaking, but CBS News reserves the right to turn off the microphones.
Vance won a virtual coin toss on Thursday, opting to go second with his closing statement.
