The pair met Tuesday night for their first and only debate ahead of the election in November.
Former President Donald Trump feverishly posted on social media as his running mate, Ohio Senator JD Vance, faced off against Minnesota Governor and Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz for the first and only time in the 2024 election season.
Vance and Walz met in New York City Tuesday night and battled over the issues top of voters’ minds ahead of November, including the economy, immigration and escalations overseas. The 90-minute debate, which started at 9 p.m. ET, was hosted by CBS News and took place without a live audience.
Trump promised ahead of the debate to react live over his Truth Social account, a similar method he used during Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris’ keynote speech at the Democratic National Committee back in August.
The former president wasted no time on Tuesday, posting within the first few minutes of Walz answering the moderators’ first question regarding the conflict in the Middle East that the governor has “been indoctrinated with LIES, thinking he can override his own INCOMPETENCE.”
“He’s as nervous as you can get!” Trump added in the post.
