reference news network reported on october 2according to a reuters report on october 1, the u.s. democratic vice presidential candidate waltz and the republican vice presidential candidate vance held a vice presidential candidate debate at the cbs studio center in new york on the 1st. during the debate, the two "unexpectedly "the ground" maintained its grace.
according to reports, the two campaign opponents adopted a "friendly" tone most of the time. the most heated exchange came toward the end of the debate: vance dodged a question about whether he would challenge this year's vote if republican presidential candidate trump loses.
in response to the question, walz attributed the incitement of the mob that attacked the u.s. capitol on january 6, 2021, to trump's false statements about voter fraud.
according to reports, in the last debate before the presidential election on november 5, both walz and vance tried to inflict a lasting blow to the other party. they bickered over the middle east crisis, immigration, taxes, abortion, climate change and the economy. but overall, the pair seemed intent on projecting a sense of "midwestern goodwill."
vance has repeatedly questioned why democratic presidential candidate harris has not done more to address inflation, immigration and economic issues during her tenure in the biden administration.
walz called trump an "unstable" leader. he also squarely disagreed with criticism leveled by vance on immigration, attacking trump for pressuring congressional republicans to abandon a bipartisan border security bill earlier this year.
according to reports, trump watched the debate on television. during the debate, he angrily posted on real social, a social platform he created, sometimes twice a minute. trump attacked the cbs live host and called walz "pathetic" and "low iq."
political analysts say vice presidential debates typically do not change the outcome of an election. (compiled/madan)
