Dan Mitchinson: US correspondent recaps the JD Vance - Tim Walz vice-presidential debate
Manage episode 443088709 series 2098282
Over in the US, both vice presidential candidates just had their first and only debate ahead of the November election.
Democrat Tim Walz and Republican JD Vance clashed over hot-button issues including the Middle East crisis, immigration, taxes, and climate change - to name a few.
US correspondent Dan Mitchinson says this debate felt more civilised than the Trump-Harris clash from September - but Vance delivered the better performance.
"Vance was obviously much more polished, Walz came off as a little more nervous, especially off the top - but he has said before that he doesn't like speaking in front of crowds and gets a little nervous and flustered. But I'll tell you this - both seemed more respectful of one another than Trump and Harris did."
