About four weeks before the US presidential election, vice candidates Pence and Harris meet in a television duel. The main focus of the debate is likely to be the corona infection of US President Trump.

Dave Watson, from the US state of Iowa, was especially frustrated by the first television duel between US President Donald Trump and his challenger Joe Biden. The soy producer would like a discussion on factual issues: “What do health insurance candidates want to do? Our system is not perfect. How do they want to change it? There was nothing for that,” Watson said. “Social justice: this is something that needs to be addressed. But we don’t learn how to solve it.”
The possibility of a substantive debate appears to be significantly greater in the televised duel of the vice presidential candidates: current vice president Mike Pence and his rival Kamala Harris are in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Failed crown aid package
In the middle of the stage there will be a huge plexiglass panel. As additional protection against corona infections. After the president of the United States, Trump, had to admit last week that he was infected, this issue will also be the focus of the debate.
Trump declared that negotiations on Corona’s new aid package for families and businesses had failed last night. Vice President Pence is once again tasked with declaring the President.
Pence is having his second television duel
“We will not allow the Democrats in Washington to use an aid package to buy poorly run Democratic states,” Pence said. A new aid package must be based on what families and businesses need as a result of the Corona crisis.
The claim will be countered by US Senator Harris: she could ask about Pence’s responsibility in the current crisis. The vice president is the head of Corona’s crisis team in the White House.
The television duel is not a new situation for Pence, four years ago he faced Senator Tim Kaine. For Harris, on the other hand, it’s a much bigger stage than it was at the time of the US Democratic primary.
Another questionable duel between Biden and Trump
“This time, it’s about some knowledge, if not deep, of Joe Biden’s previous career, that of Mike Pence and Donald Trump,” Harris said. “And, of course, I have to defend my decisions.”
Harris and Pence only know each other once. For President Trump and his challenger Biden, on the other hand, the next television debate is planned for next week. The infected president has already agreed and therefore pressured Biden to act. Democrats only want to run when Trump has recovered.
