JD Vance and Tim Walz Praised for Civil Debate

J.D. Vance and Tim Waltz are being praised for their civil vice presidential debate. The debate began and ended with a handshake. Although they were civil, there were some contentious moments. Inside Edition's Steven Fabian has more.

It's sad that having a civilized debate has become a surprise

[apphysicsenjoyer]

I'm particularly pleased that the debate was less about personal attacks and more about policy. It's nice to see how courteously these gentlemen treated each other!

[DaveysWonderfulWorld]

Props to JD, Vance and Tim Walz for this debate I haven’t seen a debate this civil and this respectful since the 2008 presidential debate between Barack Obama and John McCain props to them

[TomEason-iz]

This is what we need more of. Much respect to both of them. This was a refreshing change of pace and what the country needs. Well done gentleman.

Finally a much mature debate with actual output, doesnt matter if its heavily rehearsed but thats how adult works

[RoyFabian]

Those two seem like better candidates for president themselves than the current candidates.

Politicians acting polite and respectfully to one another is unsettling 😅

[jevaughn]

So the world is shocked by maturity and professionalism. That says the level of North America has fallen.

[BibleWisdom-BW]

I’m really glad the debate focused more on policy than personal attacks. It’s refreshing to see how respectfully these gentlemen treated each other!

[hurricanemeridian]

Respect for these two having an actual conversation

[jeffreyeminger]

This is what politics needs more of...we need more reaching across the aisle and unity

[calebbarlow]

Mannn why aren’t THESE our presidential choices

[u.npeacekeeperball]

I see nothing wrong with taking notes. It's much better than throwing insults.

Biggest losers from the debate were the moderators that did not follow their own rules!

[brendolbreadwar]

1:42 that clip is edited. You could CLEARLY hear them talking even when their mics where muted. I watched it live.

[karlmahlmann]

Vance appeared very Presidential. Walz seemed blustered and made lots of gaffes. He even called himself a "knucklehead."

[Averageamer]

This is the representation America needs and I’m glad to see others also think so

[APeaceofSoul]

I’m really happy the debate stuck to policy instead of personal jabs. It’s awesome to see them treat each other with respect!

[JackRex-gxil]

How about these guys be president and VP?!

[Fatman-gk]

I very much applaud the candidates for being civil with each other and agree that it was refreshing.
