GOP Vice Presidential candidate Senator JD Vance has called for a genuine debate with his Democrat counterpart, Governor Tim Walz. This challenge was laid down during Vance’s recent appearance on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle,” where he revealed that CBS News had reached out with potential dates for the showdown. The network proposed September 17, September 24, October 1, and October 8 as options, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.
CBS News made its intentions clear on social media platform X, stating, “Today, CBS News invited both vice-presidential candidates to participate in a debate in New York City. We provided the campaigns with four dates as options: Sept. 17, Sept. 24, Oct. 1, and Oct. 8. We look forward to their responses and providing voters with an opportunity to hear directly from the vice-presidential candidates.”
Not one to shy away from a challenge, Walz quickly responded to the invitation on X, affirming, “See you on October 1, JD.”
See you on October 1, JD. https://t.co/ssi0FdseN9

However, Vance is not interested in just any debate. He’s adamant that the format must allow for a clear and unfiltered exchange of ideas, without the typical biases he associates with mainstream media setups. “We want to actually look at the debates, look at the moderators, talk about the rules a little bit,” Vance shared during his Fox News interview.
While Vance is likely to participate in the October 1 debate, he has one condition: it must be free from what he dismissively refers to as “fake news media garbage.” Vance insisted, “We’re going to do a real debate, and if CBS agrees to it, then certainly we’ll do it.”
The senator believes that multiple debates are crucial for the American people to see the stark differences between the two campaigns and understand the Republican vision for the nation’s future. He emphasized the need for public policies that prioritize securing the border, curbing the flow of dangerous drugs like fentanyl, and reducing the soaring costs of living.
“I think it’s important for the American people to actually see us discuss our views. If you look at the way that we’ve run this campaign, Donald Trump and I are giving every media interview. We’re talking to every audience that we can get in front of because our vision is so clear,” Vance stated confidently.
He added, “We don’t think that Americans who work hard and play by the rules should struggle to afford groceries. We don’t think our children should be killed by fentanyl, and we have a vision for how to implement public policies that are going to secure that border, cut down on the drugs, and bring the cost of everything from groceries to housing down to reasonable levels.”
