Walz should compliment Vance on being smarter than trump.

It forces Vance to either accept the compliment and enrage Trump or debase himself further.

I DISAVOW America-last traitor JD VANCE. Smart men, smarter than all the men on TV, they come up to me and say "Don, you're Penn State Educated, so smart". I only picked JD to fire him. Sad!

It's actually kind of amusing to imagine him screaming, "You're fired!" at his VP running partner.

Realistically, he could just answer along the lines of "Trump has set a really high bar, so I'm honored to be compared to him".

But what if JD uses a tactical “no u?” Walz will then face the same conundrum.
