If victory in a debate is measured by the ability of one of the candidates to put the opponent on the defensive and change their contribution, Harris wins. He is a few hundred ahead of his rival, especially in a race for the White House that will be decided by a few thousand votes. The vice president, realizing that he has more at stake than the former president, sets out to challenge his enemy. He achieved this as soon as the debate began, when he crossed the stage to greet and shake hands with a surprised Donald Trump.
Harris is a dangerous candidate, allergic to interviews. He did not specify his policies and in areas such as the economy he lived with anxiety and indifference. In this discussion, perhaps the last one before November 5, it remains to be seen whether Harris’s political behavior will be defined by the enemy with his attacks (dangerous Communists) or will he step to get the Presidential aura that he needs to convince the voters. You get it halfway. Harris takes on the role of a ruthless prosecutor who confronts a cultured criminal. To the man who, on his way to the White House, changed election promises with all kinds of judicial problems.
“Immigrants are the neighbor’s pets”, the ‘beat’ of the argument
Harris has listened to his running mate, Tim Walz, who a few weeks ago described Trump and JD Vance as strange people ( weird ). In one of the biggest moments of the debate, Trump said that the Haitian immigrants from Springfield (Ohio) are the pets of the neighbors (a hoax that spread throughout the networks and that the moderators of the debate remembered as false). Harris responded in the best way possible, with a smile. Actually, Trump looks like a strange person.
It’s a strange situation, which shows how amazing Trump is. In the June debate with Biden, with the Democrat against the canvas, the Republican released a sentence that seemed like a stone and ended the little honor that the rival had left: “I don’t know what he said, but I think He He doesn’t know maybe.” Trump was as cute then as he was a fool yesterday. The sentence about the Haitians would not have confused his followers. But it may make those who are not determined to think that maybe Trump is weird.
The Democratic candidate angered Trump when he said few people attended his rallies and those who left were tired and impatient. He was convincing when talking about Republican opposition on abortion. A man who has legal issues in which women are visibly damaged cannot be the one defending their reproductive rights. He was strong in his defense of democracy and in pointing out the high number of former government officials who had abandoned him because of his behavior.
Harris is not sure about the economy. Trump defended his tariff policy in the debate, and when Harris called him this would make American consumption more expensive, Trump reminded him that Biden has maintained his principles in this area.
The debate will not diminish support for Trump. As Elon Musk explained in X, Kamala Harris may be brilliant, but we can’t handle four more years of the same politics and Trump is a great person. However, it could bring the doubts of undecided voters that Harris needs seriously. The candidate has a changing voting base and needs to be fed with views like yesterday’s. The debate was a shot of power for the advocate. Harris resisted the blow and, against all odds, survived the campaign.
