It’s safe to assume we’re never going to see J.D. Vance on live television again, at least not until after the election is over.
The dude so thoroughly dominated the vice-presidential debate on Tuesday night that there’s no way cable news producers are going to book him again. He’d put them out of business.
If you didn’t watch the event on CBS, the affair was a set-up from the beginning. One of Trump’s greatest electoral weaknesses is among suburban women. Naturally, CBS cast two women note-card readers to “moderate” the debate for the explicit purpose of daring Vance into a conflict with either of them.
Vance never took the bait. He parried every onslaught. He even conceded agreements to Kamala Harris’s running-mate, Tim Walz, when it was warranted.
In short, the three Democrats ganging up on Vance didn’t get him. He got them. He beat them.
Donald Trump is the greatest salesman in the world. But his running-mate just sold Trump’s presidency and campaign for a second term — greater than the greatest salesman in the world.
Vance deftly explained that Walz is backing the person who is in the White House at this moment. Vance said that the promises they’re making should have been fulfilled in the past three years, but instead, Kamala has repeatedly done the opposite as vice president.
That includes her new and fake promises of bringing down crime, limiting immigration at the Southern border, reversing grocery prices, and on and on. Kamala seems to make up policy on the daily and pretend it’s fine, which is another way of intimating she’s never had any vision on the matters, to begin with.
The truth is that, during Tuesday’s debate, Walz revealed himself to be in over his head. He couldn’t remember the details of what had been crammed into his head by the campaign, which is, incidentally, the same problem Kamala has had during her entire tenure as vice president. Walz struggled to speak and gave no legitimate counterarguments to Vance’s case.
Vance exceeded expectations, but — unlike what the media said about Kamala in the last debate — this was real.
