NextImg:In Key Debate Moment, Tim Walz Pressed JD Vance On Trump Losing 2020 Election
LOADINGERROR LOADING

Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) went head-to-head Tuesday in the only vice presidential debate scheduled ahead of Election Day.

The running mates of former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris kept things fairly civil, rarely talking over or interrupting one another at the event on CBS, which was moderated by Norah O’Donnell and Margaret Brennan.

The two regularly pointed out when they agreed with one another, but also tried to highlight the stark differences in their running mates’ platforms, touching on topics like immigration, abortion, climate change, housing and inflation. Things heated up as the two discussed the Jan. 6 insurrection and the results of the 2020 election, which Trump lost.

Each addressed some of their own controversies as well. Vance explained his decision to run alongside a man he once claimed could be “America’s Hitler,” and Walz addressed his past claim that he was in Hong Kong during the deadly Tiananmen Square protests, which is not true.

In Key Debate Moment, Tim Walz Pressed JD Vance On Trump Losing 2020 Election

In what may end up being the defining moment of the vice presidential debate, Walz directly asked Vance whether he agreed Trump lost the 2020 election.

"[Trump] is still saying he didn't lose the election," Walz said, before turning to face Vance. "Did he lose the 2020 election?"
"Tim, I'm focused on the future," Vance responded. "Did Kamala Harris censor Americans from speaking their mind on the 2020 COVID situation?"
"That is a damning non-answer," Walz responded.
