The single vice presidential debate of the 2020 election took place on Wednesday night. Vice President Mike Pence was cool, calm, and in complete command of the facts. Kamala Harris looked like an amateur.
Topics included response to the Coronavirus, the election, racial issues, the economy, foreign policy and more.
Pence defended the Trump administration’s policies. Harris was more interested in attacking than offering ideas, and refused to answer when asked if she and Biden would pack the Supreme Court.
Most people agree Pence won the night, including Trump.
From the New York Post:
Trump tweets Mike Pence ‘won big’ at VP debate
President Trump tweeted Wednesday night that Vice President Mike Pence was the clear winner at the vice presidential debate in Utah.
“Mike Pence WON BIG!” Trump wrote about his running mate following the forum with Democratic challenger Sen. Kamala Harris of California.
Harris and Pence clashed on the Trump administration’s COVID-19 pandemic performance, foreign policy and criminal justice reform during nearly two hours of debate.

Harris said the Republican ticket “forfeited their right to re-election” by mismanaging the pandemic, but Pence fired back pointing out that Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden opposed Trump’s January travel ban on China as “xenophobic” as the outbreak spread.
Pence then blasted Harris for saying she was unsure if she would take a COVID-19 vaccine because she distrusts Trump.
Here are some clips from the night:
