Harris Dominates First Debate Against Trump

Vice President Kamala Harris dominated the recent presidential debate against former President Donald Trump, with multiple media outlets and public reactions deeming her the clear winner. European and American media highlighted her aggressive stance, with Harris accusing Trump of being manipulated by Putin and endangering European security. Polymarket bettors reflected a surge in Harris' election odds, with 94% believing she won the debate. Late-night hosts and public figures like Michelle Obama and Barack Obama praised her performance, emphasizing her readiness for the presidency. Independent polls showed Harris as the more presidential candidate, though the debate did little to shift overall voter support. Even traditionally pro-Trump outlets like Fox News acknowledged Trump's poor performance and Harris' success.
