Vance will try to get under Walz's skin by making personal attacks against Kamala--DEI, Willie Brown, etc. Walz's natural response will be to defend her. Don't get distracted, Tim.

Lol people like him a lot ? Isnt he the most unpopular VP pick in years ?

[Don-OLDandJDareWEIRD]

TL;DW Walz is wholesome and Vance is weird

[Kestrophedrone]

Is Jake Tapper Interviewing for Fox lol. What was that?

[nathanjamesbaker]

Everything you need to know: JD Vance is weird.

Off course it’s about popularity…. Why else would people vote for Trump ? For his seriousness and knowledge of policies ? Give me a break!

Emmer HATES Walz, and that emotion, and his inability to control it, could easily have impacted any attempt at objective training - Buttigieg is FAR more professional and far less emotional, so his training would probably be the same. It will be interesting to see if Walz bites on Vance's antagonism, like Trump did for Kamala, or he remains calm, cool, and collected -but direct and accurate!

[vivianhughes]

Sorry Jake you're wrong. JD does not come off as polished. He comes off as plastic, as in fake.

[brucehauge]

Walz 18 years in the congress and as govenor up against a clown with not even 2 years as a senator and half the time he wasn't there to vote. Walz has never lost an election he's 8 and 0.

[TheRayalight]

I couldn't even finish watching this.. CNN is trying so hard to be Fox it's not even funny.

[michelleanderson]

Jake doesn’t even try to hide his bias against the Democrats.

[cpaul]

Nice work, there, CNN - free advertising Trump's "fact check, " but don't mention the CBS one being conducted live in a chat as well. SMH. I seriously can't even watch you guys amateur hour, or flat out slanted -to-prove-you're-not-slanted. Both suck.

[AMays-mtgc]

I appreciate what Shermichael is saying about readiness. But tell me again what the media has said about the knowledge of the former President regarding domestic & foreign affairs.

[Partinaire]

that Jake Tapper segment...wtf was that biased bullshit

[godfr]

Erin Burnett is very intentionally ignorant. JD Vance has worked in politics for just over a year. Obama was in Illinois State Senate for like 2 terms before essentially serving a full term in US SENATE. Stop interrupting people, to show you want to be open to Trumpers.

"We've been to the border ... we've been to the border ..."
"YOU haven't been to the border."
"I also haven't been to Europe. I don't see your point

[JohnnyJones-icwv]

Walz is going to bring up pet eating immigrants, and then Vance is going to destroy him with those ICE stats. Vance is going to start naming victims.

[myaslime]

Watched Vance's numerous press briefings. But couldn't see any of Walz's press talk answering questions.

[Bakes-zc]

Did Minneapolis burn down? Hell, send that rebuild team to NC!

[myaslime]

Jake tapper, Vance is confident and did many many press briefings answering tough questions for the American people. Why don't you cover that?
