He suggested that the Democratic Party is running a campaign based solely on &#8220;vibes,&#8221; which he believes will not resonate with most voters. Vance criticized Harris for her promises made at rallies to tackle inflation &#8220;on Day One,&#8221; stating, \u201cWell, Day One was 3 1\/2 years ago.\u201d He argued that her policies contributed to the current inflation crisis and expressed confidence that Americans are wise enough not to fall for such claims. Vance also highlighted his and Trump\u2019s active engagement with the media and public events, lamenting that the Harris-Walz campaign avoids addressing these groups. He emphasized their commitment to ensuring hardworking Americans can afford basic necessities like groceries and proposed solutions for reducing drug-related issues and lowering living costs. Both Walz and Vance have agreed to debate on CBS News on October 1, with Vance also proposing a CNN debate on September 18. During his interview, he advocated for multiple debates so voters can hear both vice presidential candidates&#8217; perspectives directly.
