A good debate is where both sides have some points to try and establish evidence for. That's a rarity in today's political election cycles. Here, Harris just had to show who was the adult in the room and maybe get some talking points out to anyone who hadn't heard them yet. It could have been a town hall or campaign rally with a screaming toddler in the background, same effect.

Trump: incoherent rambling about immigrants stealing then eating pets and Democrat governors aborting newborns

Kamala: "He lost the election, and he's clearly having a hard time processing that."

I doubt he will be participating in another one. He will stick to his "old man yells at cloud" gig until November.

Controversial but I was surprised at how well trump did for himself.

He managed to dial down the lies and rhetoric from “how stupid does he think the audience is” to “obviously bullshit”.

Well done to Harris of course, in particular for calling his playbook tactics out at the start, then repeatedly calling out the lies and dog whistling each time - the way to beat a manipulating bully is to shine a light on their behaviour plainly in public and she nailed it.

Bonus points to Harris as well for laughing at him whilst maintaining class.

I don't know that Trump gained any voters last night, but I think he lost some.

And this coming from a noted (and respected) conservative think tank. It really says a lot.

Ya' think?
