Why Tonight's Veep Debate Matters Uniquely

We’re told vice presidential debates don’t influence the outcome of presidential elections. Tonight’s should be an exception.

 

For one thing, additional assassins are reportedly hunting the top of the Republican ticket, making the readiness of Donald Trump’s running mate, J.D. Vance, to step up at any moment a matter of surpassing importance.

 

For another, this debate presents a unique opportunity to address an issue on which the two candidates differ profoundly. Democrat Tim Walz has a lifetime of extensive personal and professional connections to Communist China and rejects the idea that it’s an adversary. Senator Vance strongly disagrees.

 

A very timely webinar at 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time today will explore how Chinese Communists and their friends use three Maoist “magic weapons” – propaganda, lawfare and front groups – to shape our perceptions of, and responses to, the China threat. Join us at PresentDangerChina.org.
