[NilDreams]

The moderators didn’t follow their own rules.

[VividJayz]

The cats and dogs thing is hilarious because there is bdycam footage of a dude eating a cat. The eating of the animals definitely happened, whether the mayor wanta to admit it or not

[rlic]

Na, the real question is. Did ABC follow the presidential debate rules?

[yankee]

It's as if she was reading from a script.😂 ABC really over did themselves with this staged stuntshow.

[suestrouts]

Why have the rules if you don't follow !

[Ragu]

SHE GOT WHAT SHE WANT, SHE SHOULD DO ANOTHER DEBATE AND THIS TIME, FOX, IF SHE REALLY IS SINCERE.

[jw-mrxz]

She knew the questions, she answered to quick, and gave half answers, she is so phoney

[anthonynguyen]

This was disappointing. She def had the answers. You could also tell the moderators were also biased. I hoped for an actual fair debate after watching the first one, where CNN actually seemed neutral. Whatever the case, I just hope the economy improves. Stay classy America

[LaishramHkMkclips]

Nope: heading need to change did the interviewer follow the rules of asking equally on both side. For as far as i can see they are taking sides to Harris all the time. Seems like 3 🆚 1

[stubarnum]

Yes, let's turn the page from this current administration. She has had 4 years the country is a mess.

[squidkid]

The moderators were the ones that didn’t stick to the rules

[barbstegner]

Kamala Harris why are you avoiding the issues 🤔 😕 😒???

[TravlinMoneyMan]

That boy was going a record 3 insults per 30 seconds @ 6 lies per minute😂

[mikametcalf]

Going by past record. His presidency went well. Her vice presidency was atrocious.

[beibeiwang]

Moderators did not follow the rules. This is a 1:3 debate. Moderators And Kamala three people together against Trump.

[lawrencedieck]

ABC SHOULD CHANGE TO THE CARTOON NETWORK. IT WAS Trump against 3 people

[billkallas]

All that Trump did was Rant and he even answer one question??

[Keithfromheath]

Moderators were biased big time and never fact-checked Harris.

[rubyromaine]

I personally believe she was given the questions or at least the topics ahead of time. Her answers were too coordinated and crafted. Plus the “moderators” never fact checked her. It was 3 against 1.

[echomike-]

Kamala talks a talk Trump walks the Walk 🚶‍♂️
