Left-wing media figures and outlets panned Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s debate performance against Sen. JD Vance following the CBS-moderated event Tuesday evening, giving Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate low marks across the board.
CNN’s Abby Phillips, Dana Bash, and Jake Tapper, notably, were all critical of Walz, with each of them alternately opining that he appeared to either lack debate prep or had far too much of it and was not quick enough on his feet to counter Vance’s many jabs at Harris.
