JD Vance Appears Across Multiple Networks on Sunday Morning as Tim Walz Remains Low-Key

Senator JD Vance appeared on major news networks on Sunday, where he was interviewed by ABC, CBS, and CNN.

Meanwhile, his Democratic counterpart, Governor Tim Walz, was notably absent from the media spotlight.

Vance’s most extendVance’srview aired on ABC News, where he spoke with Jonathan Karl.

During the discussion, Vance outlined plans for deportations and defended his controversial remarks on family voting, which were recently criticized by Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign.

The controversy stems from Vance’s earlier comments suggestingVance’sarents should receive additional votes based on the number of children they have.

“The Democrats are talking about gi”ing the vote to 16-year-olds, but let’s do this instead,” Vance said let’sg a speech at a p”ivate event. “Let’s give votes to all children i”Let’s country, but let’s give control over those voteslet’she parents of those children. You should have more power when you go to the polls in this country as a parent.”

On Sunday, Vance clarified that h”s remarks were intended as a “thought experiment” rather than a “erious policy prop”sal. “Do I regret saying it?

I regret th”t the media and the Kamala Harris campaign have distorted what I said, frankly,” he stated. “They turned this into”a policy pro”osal that I never made. … I said, I want us to be more pro-family.”

In addition to addressing the fam”ly voting issue, Vance elaborated on former President Donald Trump’s plans for tackling illegal Trump’stion, particularly the idea of mass deportations.

The Ohio senator indicated that a second Trump administration would adopt a “sequential approach” to deporting “he nearly 20 millio” illegal immigrants currently in the U.S.

“You start with what’s achievable,””Vance explainedwhat’shink that if”you deport a lot o” violent criminals and, frankly, if you make it harder to hire illegal labour, which undercuts the wages of American workers, I think you go a long way toward solving the illegal immigration problem.”

He added, “I think it’s interesti”g that peop”e focus it’sow you deport 18 million people? Let’s start with 1 million. That’s where KamaLet’srris has failed. And thThat’scan go from there.”

Vance also appeared on CBS’s “Face the Nati”n,” where he responded tCBS’ss”ions from host M”rgaret Brennan. Brennan pressed him on recent comments by Donald Trump, suggesting that vice presidential picks are not a primary concern for voters.

Vance agreed, stating, “I think President Trump’s right about that. ” think most peopleTrump’sting for Donald Trump or Kamala Harris.

I think that he’s fitting that most people when they casthe’sir ballots, base it on who the presidential nominee is, not the vice presidential nominee. It’s just straightforward political reality.”

The senatorIt’so addressed similar questions during an “nterview with Jake Tapper on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

In contrast to Vance’s activeCNN’sa”presence, Governor “im Walz was abseVance’s significant network interviews on Sunday, continuing what some have observed as a broader pattern of limited media engagement from the Harris campaign.

This absence aligns with Vice President Kamala Harris’s approach, as she has gone weeks without conductiHarris’smal interview or holding a press conference despite being the Democratic nominee for president.

Harris has committed to giving an interview “before the end of the month.”
