During the recent debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump, Harris faced no fact-checks from moderators while Trump was called out five times for inaccuracies. Supporters of Harris expressed enthusiasm, stating she effectively challenged Trump, contrasting with Biden's previous debate performance. However, some Trump supporters felt he performed better on policy details, claiming Harris lacked elaboration on her plans. A column by Politico's Jonathan Martin suggested that a Trump loss could benefit the Republican Party by forcing a reevaluation away from Trumpism, a view that has polarized opinions within the party. Additionally, criticism of Harris's media strategy emerged, with claims that her avoidance of tough questions could jeopardize her campaign, especially against Trump. Harris's upcoming debate could be crucial as she navigates the pressures of direct questioning and seeks to improve her standing in the polls.
