As Trump’s campaign noticed after Tuesday’s vice president debate: “JD Vance wiped the floor with Tim Walz.” The Senator from Ohio not only won praise from many right -wing commentators, but even liberal media admitted that he did very well. For example, Jonathan Karl from ABC said that Tim Walz turned out to be “uncertain” and apparently did not spend much time on the national stage, while Vance “was very smooth.” Politico admitted that “JD Vance is doing well today.” Abby Phillip from CNN noticed that Walz seemed unprepared for Showdown, while Vance successfully landed “a few blows”. Meanwhile, Dana Bash from the network noticed that the democrats were “not delighted.” And we could go on.

Early consensus of my focus group:
VP candidates are better than their runners. #Vpdebate– Frank Luntz (@frankluntza) October 2, 2024
• “They debate about politics – did Christmas come early? It makes me so happy! “
• “I learned more during the first 15 minutes than the whole campaign before.”

Other focus groups came to similar conclusions, and the swing State focus group in Washington Post even gives Vance Higher grades than Walz about climate change.
