Tim Walz and JD Vance in US vice-presidential debate | BBC News

Tim Walz and JD Vance have clashed on immigration, the economy, and the Capitol riot in the only US vice-presidential debate of the US election.

The debate between the vice-presidential candidates in New York was largely policy-focused and civil – but grew heated over the topic of abortion access.

Republican Vance attacked Kamala Harris for record migration at the US southern border, while Democrat Walz accused Vance of vilifying migrants.

[adamtimmins]

Waltz lost, come on bbc stop this biased nonsense👍

[FirstyPaul]

I was not sure about Vance but he was amazing tonight

[malekiram]

The BBC where unbiased true reporting goes to

[louisemann]

As always the BBC doesn't even try to hide its bias.

[danielschoeman]

How is the BBC still a news platform?!?!?!

[theastonvillaseal]

Definitely a win for Vance. Walz’ politics seemed vastly overwhelmed by what Vance was saying.

[stephne-wxjv]

Wow, Vance slayed that debate. Impressive.💪💯🎯

[xfloydiex]

I wish these two were the main candidates rather than the two clowns above them.

[grahamashe]

Can you guess which candidate the Malthusian BBC supports?

[LarryDeskPlant]

It's funny how a respectful debate is seen as unusual.

[shaunmacready]

Vance clearly won. He was far smoother and more articulate here. I loved the question about " walz in 1989 there was something not adding up with his rimeline and a discrepancy " he replied im from nebraska a town of 400 people. That instantly was a massive hit he nuked himself basically with that answer

[prayashsunwar]

In this 3 on 1 debate vance crushed walz

[fritzvillar]

even bbc can't cover up tim walz stupidity 😂

[lubanskigornik]

Waltz was looking and acting very nervous during the debate. Vance cool, collected and w point. Waltz looked like nervous 'pusher' when running out of 'juice'. The best indicator of who was right.

[JonathanSilverton-olkn]

The BBC desperately trying to make out that Walz came out on top.

[stephentucker]

Vance is a true statesman. Walz can’t tell the truth.

[PlanetOfTheAztecs]

Felon/ Robot. Vs. Prosecutor/Coach

[samfisher]

Trump is a genius, he has a young, smart, charismatic man by his side. They both represent different generations and know how to deal with different issues.
