Ohio Senator JD Vance has defended his upcoming debate against Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, despite recent comments from his running mate, former President Donald Trump. Trump expressed that it is 'too late' to debate Vice President Kamala Harris again since voting has already commenced.
When questioned about the potential negative impact of his debate with Walz on America, Vance emphasized that Trump had already participated in a debate and performed well. Vance highlighted that a significant number of undecided voters indicated their preference for Trump after watching his previous debates, suggesting that winning over the majority of undecided voters signifies debate success.
Vance attributed Harris' eagerness for a rematch to her perceived decline in popularity, stating that desperate campaigns resort to drastic measures. Despite Trump's reluctance to engage in a late October debate, Harris confirmed her participation in a second debate scheduled for October 23.
Regarding his debate preparation against Walz, Vance viewed it as an opportunity to showcase the Trump-Vance team's commitment to substance, a proud record, and a comprehensive plan for the future. He contrasted his approach of addressing Americans as citizens with Harris' alleged condescending tone towards voters.
Vance criticized Harris' recent interview on MSNBC, where he claimed she evaded questions about specific plans to address inflation by recounting personal anecdotes. He questioned the relevance of her childhood experiences to the pressing issue of inflation.
In conclusion, Vance expressed his intention to communicate policy proposals aimed at improving the lives of Americans to a national audience during the upcoming debate with Walz.
