In one of the most memorable moments of the vice-presidential debate, Republican contender J.D Vance refused to admit that former President Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. 

He also minimized the events of January 6, 2021, when a pro-Trump crowd stormed the United States Capitol to try to halt the ceremonial certification of the results. The Ohio senator also declined to decide whether to dispute the verdict of the 2024 election, even if all state leaders certified the votes as valid.

Minnesota Democratic Gov. Tim Walz, Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign mate, voiced frustration and surprise. He stated that such denialism had to cease since it was “tearing our country apart.”

J.D Vance initially avoided the topic by claiming he was “focused on the future” and lambasted Harris, whom he later said was the true “threat to democracy” after accusing her of censorship.

Walz called such remarks “troubling” and expressed alarm about Trump’s recent threats to imprison political opponents, as well as his efforts to cast doubt on this year’s election results.

In a change from the night’s cordial tone, both parties engaged in a contentious back-and-forth about the matter. Vance attempted to portray election denialism as a problem for both parties. He further compared Trump’s activities to Hillary Clinton’s concerns about the 2016 election (but only after she conceded).

Trump pushed falsehoods about the 2020 election being “rigged” and “stolen” by Democrats in the months before January 6. At the Ellipse, he repeated his heated rhetoric, declaring, “If you don’t fight like hell, you won’t have a country anymore.”
