VALSHE starts now.

0:10.0

Good morning. It's Sunday, September the 29th, 37 days until Election Day.

0:14.2

In just two days, Minnesota Governor Tim Walls and Ohio Senator J.D. Vance will take the stage in New York City for the first and likely only

0:21.7

vice presidential debate of this cycle. Tuesday's matchup will be the first time that the two men

0:26.8

will meet each other in person and it will offer them both a chance to reintroduce themselves

0:31.6

to the country. Since joining their respective campaigns, Walls and Vance's paths have diverged.

Hungary's authoritarian Prime Minister Victor Orban as, quote, one of the toughest, smartest people.

1:45.7

Now, on the economic front, he's been fixated on one particular thing, tariffs.

1:52.3

The word tariff properly used is a beautiful word.
