Minnesota Governor Tim Walz saw a significant bump in polling after Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate in New York, surpassing Ohio Senator JD Vance in postdebate momentum.
The showdown saw the two candidates largely focus on differences, with Vance repeatedly hitting Vice President Kamala Harris on border security, while Walz lambasted former President Donald Trump on abortion rights. Newsweek has contacted the Vance and Walz campaigns for comment via email.

I’m convinced trump never thought past optics and didn’t look at anything besides headshots.
It’s 100% the guyliner
When Trump picked Vance he was still running against Biden and was assumed to win easily. Campaign optics weren’t part of the equation.
Am I the only person who noticed that JD didn’t have overdone eyeliner during last night’s debate? Like the campaign maybe sprung for a competent makeup artist this time?
