Sadly, J.D. Vance was calm and disciplined on the debate stage tonight, even as he advocated crazy, dangerous stuff -- like a national abortion ban, tax cuts for billionaires, and "better locks" on school doors instead of fewer guns in schools.
He even kept a straight face while saying Trump is the hero of Obamacare and implying Trump won the 2020 election.
Tonight’s debate is a reminder for all Democrats: Trump could win. Tonight’s debate is also a reminder that debates happening in races all across the nation will impact what voters think and which people get out to vote.
U.S. Senate and House candidates running in critical presidential battleground states are playing defense against misinformation and trying to go ON OFFENSE in their own debates, in ads, and at peoples' doors. If they don’t turn out the vote, Kamala Harris could fall short.
Tim Walz held his own – making the case that Kamala Harris will fight for working families while Trump helps billionaires. Walz advocated for farmers, unions, teachers, nurses, truck drivers, and everyday working families.
Kamala Harris has made major gains against Donald Trump on kitchen-table issues that are top of mind for swing voters – like lowering grocery prices and by cracking down on corporate price gouging – while Donald Trump gives billionaires tax breaks and tries to cut Social Security.
But this debate showed that Trump, Vance, and their fake economic populism remain a very real threat.
Right-wing interests that stand to win big from Trump’s plans to gut Social Security, cut billionaire taxes, and the rest will pour millions more into key battlegrounds to try to take down the Democratic ticket – and win the White House, Senate, and House.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
