The REAL story of the presidential debate

Today on Rachel and the Republic, Rachel Parker is joined by Detroit radio host Justin Barclay to break down the 2024 presidential debate between Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.

Parker and Barclay analyze the best and worst moments of the night, including the moderators repeated attempt to rebuff Trump while leaving Harris alone.

Barclay explains why he thinks the debate won’t swing moderate voters one way or the other, and says the American public did not find the answers they were looking for due to poor moderating. Finally, Barclay details the latest in discussions about whether there will be a second presidential debate.

I am not a Trump supporter, I thought he was an unpleasant clown before he was elected . But I gradually became aware of the anti Trump propaganda in all press and media . The dishonesty and unfairness of the American media made me realise that I wasn’t going to get a true or accurate picture from those sources.

I hear she was wearing a microphone earring…..thus fed information…can you confirm?

[susanstewart]

This show was full of valuable insights. Thanks Rachel and Justin.

Who was Trump debating, the moderators or Harris?

People need to peruse the work of Thomas Sowell based in logic, facts and statistics.

Nice insight into the Debate thank you.

My work colleague saw Asian lady grab pigeons park and snap neck put them in bag take home. So easy for me to believe they are taking ducks to eat at home. It’s very possible. Certain cultures eat animals we aren’t used to.

The whole ridiculous system is unravelling and because of everything that has happened over the last 8yrs, especially the last 4-1/2yrs..things are not going to end well for any of us. Make amends.

[themittonmethod]

there is also a rumour that Harris was wearing an earpiece, coming out of the US.. I don't support EITHER of them, and as a Canadian, my vote could not count anyhow... cheers!

I can't wait for the debate between Trudeau and Poilievre we know Trudeau dont and wont answer questions

[blessedl]

Isn't that actually familiar here too? How many unanswered questions do we also have? Also emotional/victim play? I think a lot of people are craving detailed actual plans to get the west on a positive track.

Rachel....I didn’t know you were at the shooting...that's intense.

This should really be the last moderated debate between two opposing candidates ever. The moderators were terrible, but the format stinks anyway. They should all be Lincoln-Douglas style debates in future. Candidate A speaks for x minutes, then Candidate B speaks for 2x minutes then Candidate A concludes with x minutes. There should be an even number of debates so that the candidates can change their speaking order, and each candidate gets to make the closing statement the same number of times. If Trump and Harris had agreed to two debates to begin with, it would have been easy for them to follow this format.

Did you notice the speakers in the ear rings. She need help

[akashaofthenile]

it reminded me of the hunger games, those moderators played the must haves!

[rand]

Started to watch it live and gave up in anger how un-debate ABC held the gathering., I have since tried three times and can't get through it.

[lorij]

I was on American podcasts during the debate, credible ones and part of the deal was notes and a speaker in her ear

[johnsmith]

its easy Trump lies all the time what was hard to watch was all the extra time the mods were giving him

[kenbjorklund]

I believe David Menzies is going to Springfield to check out what migrants are dining on
