Vance emphasized the importance of multiple debates for the\u200b public, referencing challenges\u200d made by former President Trump to Vice \u2062President Kamala Harris.\u200b Initially, there was skepticism from Vance&#8217;s \u2064campaign regarding debating, particularly as \u200ddiscussions emerged while \u200bthe Democratic candidate situation was still uncertain. The two candidates have been\u200c exchanging critical remarks since Walz was announced as Harris&#8217;s running mate.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Walz and Vance agree to Oct. 1 vice presidential debate<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1729148\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Democratic vice presidential nominee Gov. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/tim-walz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Tim Walz<\/a> (D-MN) and his Republican counterpart Sen. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/jd-vance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>J.D.

Vance (R-OH) have agreed to participate in a debate on October 1, which will be broadcast on CBS from New York City. Walz announced the agreement on X, stating, \u201cSee you on October 1, JD.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The following day, Vance echoed this sentiment by confirming his acceptance of CBS&#8217;s terms and expressed interest in having a second debate with Walz. He stated, \u201cThe American people deserve as many debates as possible; that\u2019s why President Trump has already challenged Kamala to three.\u201d He added that he not only accepts the CBS debate but also the CNN debate scheduled for September 18.<\/p>\n<p>Initially, Vance and Trump&#8217;s campaign were hesitant about negotiating a debate after Harris had accepted an invitation from CBS for a head-to-head matchup earlier in the summer before Trump announced his running mate. A spokesperson for Trump&#8217;s campaign mentioned last month during the Republican National Convention that finalizing general election debate details would be premature until Democrats officially select their nominee.<\/p>\n<p>Vance and Walz have exchanged criticisms since Harris named Walz as her running mate last week, particularly regarding comments about Walz&#8217;s extensive service in the National Guard. In response to attacks on his record of service at an event in Los Angeles this week, Walz asserted his pride in serving the country and emphasized respect for anyone who has worn military uniform.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Harris and Trump have agreed to hold their own debate on September 10 with ABC after public negotiations took place between them. Harris remarked last month at an Atlanta gathering that while Trump avoids debating her directly, he frequently comments about her: \u201cWell Donald, I hope you\u2019ll reconsider meeting me on stage because if you\u2019ve got something to say, say it to my face.\u201d In response during a press conference at Mar-a-Lago last week, Trump expressed eagerness for upcoming debates to clarify various issues<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2652,"featured_media":2324975,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/walz-vance-diptych.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[5894,15469,38158,27318,32076],"class_list":["post-2324974","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-politics","tag-vance","tag-vice-presidential-debate","tag-walz","tag-washington-examiner"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/walz-vance-diptych.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2324974","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2652"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2324974"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2324974\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2324975"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2324974"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2324974"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2324974"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
