Darvio Morrow —JD Vance
Ohio Senator JD Vance emerged as the victor in a refreshing debate that was heavy on substance and light on bombastic behavior. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz came across as likable but ill prepared to go up against a skilled debater. Vance was able to beat back the caricature of himself presented by the media, Democrats and his own earlier missteps. But most importantly, both candidates behaved like adults and gave the country a much needed break from vitriol. Both were willing to agree with each other at times and they gave each other the benefit of the doubt. Both were more substantive and presidential than the top of their respective tickets in the previous debate. Civility ruled the day tonight, and that's good for the entire country.
Bethany Mandel—JD Vance
JD Vance's performance at the Vice Presidential debate is exactly why he was chosen as Donald Trump's running mate. He is the wonky and shrewd version of the former President; able to cooly deploy arguments with facts, accompanied by just the right amount of emotion. Sophie Vershobow, a liberal writer fumed during the debate on X, "Trump says crazy things in a crazy way and Vance says crazy things in a normal way." Vance is an effective communicator for Trump's messages and speaks to normal Americans in their language, and his opposition finds that terrifying.
