Vance twists Trump’s history on ObamaCare, claims he ‘saved’ the law
Vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) falsely claimed during Tuesday's debate that former President Trump “saved” the Affordable Care Act, the latest attempt by Vance and Trump to rewrite the GOP presidential nominee’s record.
Trump "actually implemented some of these regulations when he was president of the United States," Vance said during the vice presidential debate against Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D).
"And I think you can make a really good argument ...
Who was the JD Vance voters saw at the debate?
Well that was ... unexpected. The first question is, was JD Vance kidnaped or did he voluntarily agree to swap places with his body double? The inoffensive, agreeable, occasionally empathetic GOP VP hopeful that showed up for the debate is not the JD Vance that ran for the Senate, turned up for podcasts or goes out and campaigns for Donald Trump. Vance is intelligent and articulate. His trademark is adapting his convictions and his personality to...

Walz-Vance debate: Health care issues in the crossfire
Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will face off in the first vice presidential debate on Tuesday.
Health care has featured prominently in the campaign so far, and the debate could be a key opportunity for each side to press the other on their plans – and to attack the records of the candidates at the top of the opposing tickets.
Vance has thrust ObamaCare back into the national conversation with his explanation of former President Trump’s “...

Harris blasts Trump’s ‘concepts of a plan’ for health care in run-up to VP debate
One day before Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.) and Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) face off in the vice presidential debate, the Harris-Walz campaign has released a more than 40-page long report attacking the Trump-Vance health care plan, which the campaign says will “eliminate health insurance and raise costs for tens of millions of Americans.”
“After nearly a decade of endlessly promising to reveal his health care plan, Donald Trump claims he only has ‘concepts of a plan.’ The truth is he d...
Cruz and Scott, both McConnell critics, get cold shoulder amid tough races
The Senate Leadership Fund (SLF), a big-dollar fundraising group affiliated with Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.), isn’t helping two of McConnell’s biggest critics in the Senate GOP conference — Sens. Ted Cruz (Texas) and Rick Scott (Fla.).
This has prompted grumbling from conservatives who say McConnell has too much power over Senate Republican fundraising and point out that Cruz, in particular, a longtime McConnell critic, will be heavily outspent by h...
Voters need a second presidential debate that looks very different than the first
In every presidential election year since 1976, the main contenders have had at least two debates; in many years, there have been three.
However, we might only get one between the two nominees in 2024, now that former President Donald Trump has announced he will not debate President Kamala Harris again, claiming the original ABC debate was “rigged” against him.
That’s not good enough. If this is indeed the most important election o...
