Debate Analysis: ABC's Malpractice, Trump's Unprepared Whiff, and Harris' Achilles Heel
Guy Benson


In Tuesday's first -- and possibly only -- presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, the 45th president squandered numerous opportunities to press a compelling case against his opponent.  She was plainly well-prepared; he seemed to have prepared very little -- a self-inflicted disadvantage that was especially problematic for him because at times he seemed to be debating three people in that hall, including both moderators.  They absolutely stacked the deck against him with the questions and topics.  They followed-up multiple times with him, but did not do the same when she dodged the few passably pointed questions that were directed at her.  On issue after issue after issue after issue after issue, she pivoted away from the questions she was asked without answering them.  The hosts fact-checked Trump in real time on several occasions, but did not do so with Harris, even when she was flat-out denying realities about her record.  Just a few examples I caught along the way:

If, and only if, Trump will be a bit more prepared, he can take a second bite and just demolish her.

Lots of silliness in the last one that's out of the way now, and in some ways to be expected. Time to go in now and methodically crush her.

I think Trump was told in no uncertain terms NOT TO GO FOR HER JUGULAR in the first debate.  It was clearly apparent he stood there biting his tongue.

If he does another debate, I expect him to eat her lunch and have her thank him in the process.  She is a total valley girl bimbo.
