Four meters away and with a Plexiglass window to separate them, Republican and Democrat running mates Mike Pence and Kamala Harris, opposed each other during their only televised debate, less than a month from the US presidential election.
Management of the Covid-19 epidemic, access to the vaccine, vision of tax policy or even tax fraud by Donald Trump, the two candidates answered each other during a firm and courteous debate.
More discreet than Donald Trump, Mike Pence is the disciplined running mate of the Republican camp. Defender of traditional family values, anti-abortion, anti-marriage for all … for four years, he was a vice-president without slippages or provocations.
For his part, the former prosecutor Kamal Harris is the youth and “diversity” asset of candidate Joe Biden. Brilliant, pugnacious and dynamic, she could be the first female vice-president.
