Whether you’re for him or against him, Donald Trump has been the main draw of this presidential campaign. As many pundits predicted, the first presidential debate was the most-watched debate in history, and even a week later, everyone is still buzzing about Trump’s performance and Hillary’s seeming victory.

The two will face off once again this coming Sunday, but before that, the running mates of the two candidates—Gov. Mike Pence and Sen. Tim Kaine—will meet in Virginia for the first (and only) vice presidential debate at 9PM ET tonight.
