I don’t believe what Harris said but she did not crumble. Too much time talking about plans without actual plans.
I believe most of what Trump said but he was goaded into being angry. Too much time talking about cats.

Only caught a couple of parts – Trump was less disciplined than I hoped he would be, but not terrible. Harris was her usual chameleon self, lying with ease, and with an attitude. She is not likable. Wife texted a couple of times about things that Trump said, one of them (paraphrasing) being about waking up Biden and ordering the border closed. Of course, I should say that she likes Trump and knows that Harris is full of -it.
On to tomorrow.
Need to find out how to help with GOTV in my neighborhood.

Nah, if she really thought she won she would take the win and not risk a second debate, especially if it is on Fox.
The MSM is going to claim she won, but it seems like conservative media is making a good point about the moderators being partisan and that Trump was basically in a 3-1 fight.
Trump can come out ahead if the argument about the debate is whether it was fair. I think THAT will be the theme of talk radio tomorrow more than the actual debate.
In my view this debate will be old news by the weekend.

Walt – please stop harping on Trump’s lack of polished debate skills. He is not a professional politician. He was fine with being part of the game until the “professionals” on both sides f*cked things up so badly that he was able to run and win……AND THEN DID A GREAT JOB (but not perfect). He is simply not the articulate communicator that you want in this type of setting.
It would be great to see DeSantis or Cotton debate this Harris buffoon, but those 2 did not win the primaries and become nominee. Deal with reality.
And then vote in November.
