Why when Walz mentioned VP Harris, ABC showed a picture of her looking regal and presidential, and when Vance mentioned President Trump they didn’t show any pictures of him ?

Tim Walz could have been mumbling and stuttering the whole time and ABC would have still said he won.

It was polite and civil debate and i think the American people come on top.

You know your team lost when CNN turns off the comments mid debate on their stream lol.

Vance ran circles around Walz, my favorite part was when JD fact checked the both moderators mentioning the CBP 1 app and how this administration is fast tracking illegals into the country

[just_janen_]

That was the best debate I've ever watched they were both very polite and still were able to make their points

[Cam-witp]

i think by the end, walz wanted to be vances running mate😂

JD did better what a polite guy. Current administration had just made everything unaffordable for my family.

JD Vance put on an absolute MASTER CLASS in debating! TRUMP/VANCE 2024

JD Vance ‘comfortable and confident’ while debating ‘bumbling’ Walz

[Sbxallday]

Walz scribbling on the paper was funny 😂😂😂

This was a good professional educated debate for both parties. ❤❤ They express their views in a political professional way, answered most of the questions by the monitors and the big key point is-•They both respect each other even while discussing/disagree on who ever was answering the monitor’s questions. A clap 👏 👏 on both politicians for a great vice presidential professional debate 🇺🇸 🎉 🔔

If you’re red or blue you think your guy won.. if you were unbiased abs open JD Vance absolutely decimated Walz

[jeffgriscoa]

JD was hitting grand slams easy off of Walz and the activist moderators. JD won without a doubt.

[MoorishAlliance]

am I not an American, so no horse in the race. Conclusions:
Good debate way better than the bickering between Trump and Harris
Both has good talking points, a couple of misleading statements..
Overall, JD Vance was a better speaker and more accustomed to the debate format. 60% Vance 40% waltz

Vance called out the moderators was great. Leveled the playing field. Vance won by a lot but great debate

[Miss_Loving]

JD Vance did an incredible job last night!! 😊👍

[GaryHindmarch]

As a neutral I safely say JD Vance won the debate by a landslide

[MrGgabber]

Walz is a goofball. How does anyone take him seriously?

[glennknauer]

The moderators again were biased and lying.
