Trump-Harris debate: Body language expert weighs in on high-stakes faceoff: ‘Fell into the trap’

Vice President Kamala Harris successfully baited former President Trump on several occasions at Tuesday’s ABC Presidential Debate, making him see red and knocking him off course, according to body language expert Susan Constantine.

Tuesday’s debate in Philadelphia was the first time Trump and Harris shared the debate stage, with commentators opining that it was a good night for Harris while Trump has had better performances.

That was, in part, due to how Harris sparked reactions from Trump, who became more frustrated and angry as the night wore on.

Constantine tells Fox News Digital that Harris knew Trump’s weak points, such as questioning crowd sizes at his rallies, and when she brought them up, he defiantly responded — to his detriment.

"He fell for every one of her games; they were all tactics," Constantine says. "So when she would poke the bear, he would growl back, and she would keep poking the bear and especially when it came to, of course, the crowds."

Harris said that people at Trump’s rallies often leave early out of exhaustion and boredom. Trump responded by saying that his rallies have record-breaking crowds, whereas Harris buses people to her rallies and pays them to be there.

"She knew every single one of his weak points, and he would defend it instead of answering the question and just staying on task. He was spending most of his time hitting her back with the ball and also defending himself, which was not a good approach," Constantine says.........................

Yes, I thought the same thing; Gabbard's prepping him did him no good.   In fact I think it may have hurt him.

Tulsi Gabbard: Kamala Harris Took ‘Acting Lessons’ with ‘Hollywood Advisors’ Before ABC Debate


 excerpt:

The Kabuki-worthy facial expressions modeled by Kamala Harris during Tuesday’s presidential debate had many viewers alternately perplexed and rolling in the aisles as the Democratic nominee sought to steal ABC News’ split screen from former President Donald Trump.

“She’s got Hollywood advisers, stages, the Hollywood lights in the hopes that her friends in ABC and propaganda media declare her the winner. And that may be enough to trick the voters to vote for her. But I don’t think American people are going to fall for this.”

Gabbard recently endorsed Trump and is serving as an advisor to his campaign.

During Tuesday’s debate, Kamala Harris tried on a series of exaggerated facial expressions whenever Trump was speaking. Her on-camera mugging provoked widespread ridicule on social media.

I tried, really...really tried to watch this debate in its entirety. I failed. 8888crybaby After about 45 minutes I decided to watch Everybody Loves Raymond reruns. The debate was making me sick.

Between the lying "fact checking" of Trump by the weasel moderators and Kamala's smirk (I understand Trump's annoyance, I wanted to slap her myself) and out right lies and skirting around answers I was pretty sure I was wasting my time.

What really made my blood pressure boil was Trump falling into the baiting. He should have known what was coming and prepared better. He's not a rookie. H$ll, I know nothing about debating and could have answered better and destroyed her. He let it get personal. Which he often does. Godfather quote, "It's not personal, it's business".  I was hoping that wouldn't happen, but it did.

That being said, although I'm not a AT...I will vote for him for 3 reasons. The border, energy and the Supreme Court.

The appropriate reaction to this rehearsed debate ambush was a bitch-slapping until Kammi's smirk was wiped clean off her face and neither moderator had the ability to speak.

Maybe next time the genius strategists and pundits on the Republican side will choose to hold tight to their fainting couches and let Trump be Trump.
