Author J.D. Vance and U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan took to the debate stage for the first time ahead of the November 8th election.
RELATED: Fetterman and Dr. Oz troll over social media, ducking out on debates
"Hillbilly Elegy" author J.D. Vance and U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan faced off in the first debate of the general election hosted by Cleveland's FOX 8 News. Ryan and Vance are running to replace retiring GOP Sen. Rob Portman in the Nov. 8 election.
The candidates accused each other of being responsible for job losses and putting party loyalty ahead of voters’ needs. Vance said Ryan had supported policies that led to a 10-year-old girl in Ohio being raped. Ryan said Vance had started a “fake nonprofit” to help people overcome addiction issues.
The two also accused each other of being beholden to their party, with Ryan echoing a comment from former President Donald Trump in calling Vance an “a— kisser” and Vance saying Ryan’s 100% voting record with President Joe Biden means he’s not the reasonable moderate he says he is.

Don’t need more cops when the ones we have are horribly trained and corrected
@over easy lmao both police and firemen also abuse their positions and authority. I don’t want to contribute to my community and I shouldn’t be forced to. Police are only worried about making the govt money. I got in a wreck with someone and I had liability. The cop cited the other person and made them pay a fine to the state. Did they make them pay for my totaled car? No. They said it’s up to me to collect. So why give the other guy a citation for wrecking my car, but don’t make him pay for my car? Crooked a.f.
@Terry Bolea There is people that do bad jobs in every profession. Before you can trash all people of that profession, you should evaluate yourself in comparison.
I fully understand why you don’t want to do that.
@over easy compare myself to what? Police? Most are kids who got picked on in high school who want to feel powerful or they’re ex military and probably shouldn’t be in high stress situations because of PTSD. So by comparison Im happy I’m not them
Many of our politicians are in in for their own power, money, and financial gain, therefore they are not serving the people. Take away all the perks, take away the play for pay. Hold them accountable to the same laws and standards we are required to, then we can see how much they really care for their fellow humans.
Would be only but a handful left.
@Calvin R. Johnson Jr. It’s Megatron!
@Dakota the plumber nope this Calvin played defense on offense. And I was a fan of the Autobots lmao
@Calvin R. Johnson Jr. dang. Had hopes! Lol Nice one with the “Autobot” joke!
@Dakota the plumber welcome have a good one
Qualified immunity should go . neither of them have learned anything.
Ok groomer
As always, say what people want to hear, and do the exact opposite. Nothing new here.
More good , and better paid cops please 🙏😻
Get rid of qualified immunity.
How about more college educated cops with degrees in criminology and an actual understanding of the laws they try to enforce…before they even get into boot camp
Police do not attend BootCamp.
That takes too much time for them.
Public service was once about serving the public now it’s about serving oneself.
How about going and serving the pibluv then, and not complaining on the Internet couch quarterback.
@James Sanchez …TDS.. rent free. Now cope karen.
@Dakota the plumber ok Karen, first of all you worship that guy!!
So yeah, someone has them living in there head rent free as you say.
Now go away sheep.
Come repeat after everyone like a nice little sheep.
“Let’s go braaaahhhhdon”
@James Sanchez I’ve got just 2 words for you…
End of quote. Repeat the line.
@Dakota the plumber so you’re showing me what a clown you are ok Ken.
Laters 🐑
“Let’s go braaaahhhhdon”
Nice little sheep.
Laters kiddo.
Anybody that likes Pelosi isn’t getting my vote 💯💪
She does not go far enough make Kevin McCarthy Speaker of the House and he will show America what corruption really is
Why?
It’s pitiful when the country is in such turmoil economically, domestically and nationally and all you got to defend is shading innocent blood with abortion.
I’m from Ohio and neither of them seemed prolife enough to me, how about *no abortion* period
Are the Democrats paying you to say that?
Because that would piss off 80% of Women Voters
It doesn’t matter how gerrymanded a district is no Republican would win in that environment
@James Ricker Well I’m a woman and honestly I’m from Ohio and Yes I’m this prolife, and a lot of the people I know are this prolife as well
Pro life? No such position. You have pro choice and antiabortion. Anyone who supports the death penalty is not pro life. Anyone who uses leather products Is nothing pro life, anyone who is pro gun is not pro life.
Just have the courage to admit it’s anti abortion. It not about the fetus it’s about control and trying it to put women out of the work force. It’s about men dominating women
Get rid of qualified immunity and cops will think twice before putting their jobs and careers in jeopardy!! OVERNIGHT we’ll have a better system for law enforcement!! 💯
“Let me start off with 2 words: Made in America.”
-Joe Biden, the guy Ryan supports.
Trump thought airports existed in the Revolutionary War, the guy JD Vance supports.
@Chad Boswell Um can I get a link to that?
Hi
End of quote. Repeat the line.
Let the people vote on it. It’s almost guaranteed most do not want a total abortion ban.
The fact that this issue was left to the states is great achievement. Now the people can have a voice.
Add it to the vote for placing it as an amendment on the constitution.
Any Democrat calling for more-cops, needs to lose.
One Of The Most Repulsive & Insidious News Clips, I Have EVER Seeen, Was A News Conference Of A Police Officer Who Was Talking On His Cell Phone, On A None Business Call, That Went Through A Stop Sign, And Killed The Only Two Children Of A Local Vice Principal, Shaking Hands & That Cop Walking Away Free Without Even A Ticket✝️✝️✝️
🗡️
We should NOT have different abortion laws in California than Ohio. Two men debating abortion is the height of arrogance. Neither should be up there. Either one would PAY FOR an abortion for his 12 year old daughter who had just been raped. Women are the only ones who should decide whether to end a pregnancy. It is no business of the government or organized religion. Laws against abortion are in essence codifying religion into the law. I believe that is against the First Amendment. These people dearly love the Second Amendment, but seem to have trouble with the FIRST.
@Alex Wyatt I completely agree that when it comes to abortion, the individual should make that decision. And, because, in reality, whether one chooses to abort an ‘unwanted’ child or not, it is based on her morals! Some would never, myself included! Some may not be as emotionally affected by one such act! Making it political, and encouraging ‘commitment’ to one side or another just shoves morality to the side! The ‘issue’ of abortion should never have been a topic of such political significance!! Just the opinion of one who is not a politician!🤷🏼♀️
@John Cena You get an “F” for reading comprehension. Another user claimed that abortion was a moral issue. I replied to _them_ that morality is an individual belief, so by their own logic abortion should be left up to the individual.
I’ve never asserted that _I_ believe abortion is a moral issue.
@Patty Miller How are you pro-choice while simultaneously referring to abortion as “murder”?
@Alex Wyatt What I was saying is that you asserted that if abortion is seen as a moral issue that the decision should automatically be left up to the woman. I am saying that’s not true.
I knew Tim Ryan was gonna walk away with a W but I didn’t know he’d walk away with JD Vance’s balls
0:14 how about Federal Standards on guns and weed ya two faced Janus
Good job Ryan!!!
CLEAR, CONCISE and HONEST.
Waffleman Vance? He needs to just cult harder, I guess.😂🤣
There’s so many people being killed, why? Because their being told that life has no value! All this ragging about pro choice has declared to all that life has no meaning. If a babies life is meaningless we all are. I am the way, truth and life, no one comes to the father except thru me. John 14:6 Repent & believe in Jesus, he loves you and can change your heart.
