I literally can not wait to see how everything turns out.

[priztucker]

This has the hype of a Heavyweight Boxing Match.

[macbaryum]

Kamala will stay focused on being unburdened by what was and what will be asked.

[jessesaldua]

They both could perform terribly but Fox News will say Trump did amazing and MSNBC will say Harris did well. So much bias.

This was essentially: “How VP Harris can win the debate”

Harris and Trump, a debate for the ages! 🍿

Please change the title to: Tips for Harris in her debate vs Trump

[paulwilson]

Harris may be good at asking other people questions, but in a debate she has to answer questions. I think she struggles with that.

Anyone who tried arguing with a 5 year old know you can't win.

To probably 80% or more of voters, it's not even going to matter. People see what they want to see, if they were going to vote Trump anyway, they will agree with everything he says even if it's a load of baloney. Same with Harris...

How Trump will win the debate

Kamala: "Do not come."
Trump: "I'm gonna come!"

[lindaknorr]

This sounds like instructions fot Kamala

[clammyjones]

I've been wanting them to mute mics for a long time. So glad they're starting to implement that!

[fisikurti]

This video is all about how Harris should beat Trump in a debate. So theres no general analysis on how the debate will proceed or what should we expect from both of them.

[Bakapooru]

Kamala is going to bait Trump into a rant.

[vincentchan]

With the elections around the corner, it seems like everyone I know is backing Trump! But honestly, I'm more worried about the economic storm brewing in our backyard. Rent prices are skyrocketing, wages are stagnant, and 'shrink-flation' is the icing on the cake. On a personal note, I'm looking to invest $100k in a non-retirement account, need guide on the best strategies to consider?

[JayDeeChannel]

All harris has to do is call trump WEIRD!!

[mrrandom]

Trump just has to say "Why haven't you done that before? or why don't you do that tomorrow?" and she's done.

[ajvonline]

"Her answers are going to be fine." bookmark that one 😂

[OHA_]

To be honest not a big disappointment debate except trump making himself a fool
