Let me just say this, that debates are about performance and they are about policy. And why this debate was very important is that there are many Americans out there, not just moderate Republicans, there are base Democratic voters that are saying they want to and need to hear more.
I think it is very fair for people to want to criticize those base Democratic voters who say, Well, what more do you need? You can do that. But that is their lived reality, and so if you are trying to win their votes, you have to meet them where they are.
I am just kind of like, Well, if you agree so much with JD Vance, why should they vote for you?
There were so many niceties on that debate stage tonight. I fully believe that Governor Walz went out there tonight and did what was practiced in debate prep.
