I can't believe she introduced herself to Trump, Lol. Bro was shocked

[deutzen]

The whole "They're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats and the pets" must have caught Trump campaign team by surprise😂 I don't think that was on the script, Trump was a loose cannon in this debate!

[DAB]

The fact that it's a neck to neck race bewilders me, I thought americans are better than this.

I prefer presidents who aren't cult leaders.

13:33 Kamala's face before she called Trump, "former president" was hilarious. She looked like she wanted to call him a mfer. 😂

[wndgeneral]

Trump: "THeY'rE eaTinG tHe doGs."

Interviewer: "....So Harris, what's YOUR take on affordable healthca-?"

Trump: *"THeY'rE eaTinG ThE DOgs!"*

[michelles]

Since Trump refuses to pronounce Kamala's name correctly, it's fitting that she walked across the stage forced him to shake her hand and introduced herself by name. Boss move.

[KoMerdan]

If Trump really had Billions of Dollars then why couldn't he come up with the bond on his conviction?

[SpearStephens]

Harris can bait trump into sayin the most ridiculous things, all it took was for her to insult his rallies 🤣

[mscoyote]

Trump's comments that he had "concepts" for better Obamacare was laughable. 9 years after claiming he would have the BEST HEALTH CARE EVER.

[theWZZA]

The prosecutor vs. the felon played out like you'd expect.

[mutucurry]

“ you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it”
- President Trump

[Dragonhart]

I loved when she walked over introduced herself and shook his hand. He was on defense from that point on. It totally threw him off. He didn't know what to do after that.

[ArcticWolf-st]

notice how the moderators gave trump more speaking time and let him ramble and he still got destroyed

[andrewmark]

Kamala was very impressive. Not just because she rattled Trump. She also clearly articulated her policies and vision - something she has struggled with previously. She did exactly what she needed to.

[victoro]

Did she almost just call him a piece of shit?? 😂😂😂

[legitbeans]

He really said "have fun" 😂😂😂

[Marvellous]

Trump came over as completely unhinged! He got triggered over and over and was baited into ranting like a demented grandpa.

[justinmolsal]

The more he spoke, the bigger the hole he dug for himself
