[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She would be in a better position if she  had an earlier debate scheduled.

Kennedy and Trump is all you’ll hear about until a debate.[/quote]

Debate is in two weeks. And Kennedy positive buzz will last as long as JD Vance’s did. Because “a worm at my brain and I put a dead bear in Central Park” is weirder than even couch humping.  Incels understand couch humping. No one understands brain worms and putting dead animals in public parks. [/quote]

You actually think most Americans listen to this shit? They care about policy, what is Kamala’s policy?

Anyone
Anyone[/quote]

Many Americans care about debate performance.   It is a good stress test for the candidates.  Last one had both candidates struggling.   One withdrew and one is going to try to debate again and struggle against Harris [/quote]

Hilary Clinton won her debates again Trump. So did Kerry vs. Bush. Even Obama lost his first debate to Romney. Debates matter a lot less than people think. They only matter if they're a total disaster and when the candidate already is facing questions about age as Biden was.[/quote]

Democrats: Trump is shaking in his lifts thinking about debating Biden! He is so terrified he won’t show up! The orange coward will never debate Biden!

Also democrats: meh. debate, schemate. Who cares about policy/debates, anyway. 🐝🎤💃🏽[/quote]

Who keeps trying to wriggle out or change the terms of the upcoming debate? It ain't Harris.[/quote]

Change/wriggle out? Trump proposed more debates, which Harris refused to do.

Now dems are saying debates don’t even matter.[/quote]

Debates can matter a lot (see Biden v Trump 2024 and JFK v Nixon).  But also, the consensus debate winner doesn’t always win the election. See the examples above.

I think this debate matters because of the co pressed time frame, and hope to see at least one more in October.  Preferably moderated by the AP/NPR. With real time fact checking (by the AP) and mic cuts for over time. I think Harris wins them in a landslide.

BUT, I won’t get comfortable and say she’s won the election when she trounces Trump. The electorate has the memory of a gnat and lots of other factors are also important.

I know MAGA hates nuance. But reality is— debates matter. But they are only part of winning the Presidency.

TBH, policy matters much less since 2016. Trump is about noise and chaos and drowns out more boring substantive discussion. Trump is 100% running on vibes. Just angry negative ones. Until you neutralize that, your policy gets lost in the chaos. [/quote]
