Former President Donald Trump's debate performance against Vice President Kamala Harris has drawn sharp criticism, with former RNC Chair Michael Steele describing him as 'small,' 'withered,' and 'pissed.' Observers noted Trump's lack of preparation and inability to effectively counter Harris, who demonstrated a well-prepared and strategic approach throughout the debate. The debate highlighted key issues including abortion and democracy, where Harris accused Trump of being friendly with dictators, while Trump resorted to personal attacks and defensive rhetoric. Despite expectations of a strong showing, Trump appeared flustered and was overshadowed by Harris's assertiveness. The debate's dynamics could prove pivotal as both candidates vie for support in a tight election, especially given Trump's struggles with female voters. As the election approaches, the debate's outcome may significantly impact public perception and voter sentiment.
