Bruce Plante, PoliticalCartoons.com
The caricature shows J.D. Vance with furrowed brows and a large fly resting on his head. The insect's wings read debate and lies. The image was published shortly after the October 1, 2024, vice presidential debate between Vance and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. It references ongoing campaign exchanges between the Republican ticket of Donald Trump and Vance and the Democratic ticket of Kamala Harris and Walz.

Vance Sidesteps Direct Answer on Election Outcome
JD VANCE DEBATE QUESTIONS by Dave Whamond, politicalcartoons.com
The image shows a classroom scene with a teacher labeled Mr. Walz posing a high-stakes question about the 2020 presidential election winner to a student resembling JD Vance. The student sweats and responds with confusion rather than a clear answer. This setup reflects ongoing political debate over election certification and responses during the 2024 vice presidential contest. The cartoon highlights tensions from the prior election cycle and how candidates address questions about it. Publication occurred shortly before the October 2024 vice presidential debate between the two figures.
Vance and Walz depicted as tragedy and comedy masks before debate
RJ Matson, Portland, ME
The image presents two theater masks tied together with ribbons. The left mask, labeled Vance, shows a downturned expression. The right mask, labeled Walz, shows an upturned expression. This appears on October 1, 2024, the date of the vice presidential debate between JD Vance and Tim Walz. The visual ties the candidates to classic dramatic forms during the final weeks of the presidential campaign.
