Send us a textAre vice-presidential debates really about fiery exchanges, or is there a deeper, strategic game at play? In this episode of the Keystone Reckoning Podcast, we dive into the recent face-off between JD Vance and Tim Walz, where Coach Walz ran the ultimate trick play—choosing calm and civility over aggression. We unpack how Walz’s calculated performance forced Vance to fumble a key question about Trump’s 2020 election loss. Drawing parallels to historic debate moments like Bentsen vs. Quayle, we break down how Walz’s approach wasn’t just smart, but a potential game-changer, resonating with undecided voters looking for leadership over bluster.But the real kicker? The play didn’t stop there. The very next day, Special Counsel Jack Smith released a bombshell court filing, reinforcing Walz’s debate strategy by spotlighting Trump’s role in the January 6th insurrection. We’ll break down how the Harris-Walz campaign timed this maneuver perfectly, amplifying the stakes and driving media coverage. By keeping the focus on democracy and using strategic restraint, the Democrats may have set the stage to capture voters’ attention in a way that could reshape the 2024 election.Learn more about the Keystone Reckoning Project at www.keystonereckoning.com Support the showCheck out our previous episodes and subscribe to the podcast at https://keystonereckoning.buzzsprout.com/.Follow the Keystone Reckoning Project on social media:FacebookTwitterInstagramYouTubeLinkedInQuestions?
