    POLL AFTER US PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE: HARRIS – 63%; TRUMP – 37%

    .POLL AFTER US PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE: HARRIS – 63%; TRUMP – 37% The inaugural presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump transformed into a fiery confrontation lasting over 90 minutes.The evening began with a handshake from Harris, which swiftly gave way to intense arguments.According to a CNN and SSRS poll conducted after the debate, 63% of viewers thought Harris was the winner, while 37% favored Trump.However, the poll has a margin of error of +/- 5.3%.Before the debate, CNN’s poll showed respondents were evenly split 50%-50% on the anticipated winner.In June, their instant poll had 33% of debate watchers believing Biden won and 67% supporting Trump.Harris sharply criticised Trump, advocating for a “new generation of leadership” and taking aim at his previous policies and remarks.Trump countered with robust critiques, targeting Harris on various fronts including Afghanistan and immigration.He also drew parallels between Harris and President Joe Biden, highlighting his dissatisfaction with their administration’s handling of key issues.The debate showcased a clear divide between the two candidates, setting the stage for a contentious election season.ABC reports that with Election Day just eight weeks away, the debate came at a pivotal moment as polls reveal a tight race between the candidates.A majority of debate viewers believe Harris won.During the debate, Harris put Trump on the defensive early on, accusing him of relying on a “tired playbook” of lies and name-calling.She also criticised his rallies and was the first to mention his multiple indictments.Trump, on the other hand, sought to link Harris to President Joe Biden, criticizing their economic record and repeatedly asserting, “She is Biden.”The debate did not address Harris’ gender but did touch on her race.Trump reiterated false claims about her racial identity but claimed he was “not concerned.”Both candidates engaged in sharp exchanges, with notable jabs such as:Trump: “Wait a minute, I’m talking now, if you don’t mind, please. Does that sound familiar?”Harris: “Donald Trump was fired by 81 million people.”Harris: “He talks about fictional characters like Hannibal Lecter.”Following the debate, Harris’ campaign quickly called for a second debate.An email from her campaign stated, “Under the bright lights, the American people got to see the choice they will face this fall at the ballot box: between moving forward with Kamala Harris or going backward with Trump.That’s what they saw tonight and what they should see at a second debate in October.Vice President Harris is ready for a second debate. Is Donald Trump?”In response to the call for another debate, Trump told ABC News’ Katherine Faulders that Harris requested a second debate because she “lost tonight, very badly.”

    US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION: HARRIS RATTLES ‘ANGRY’ TRUMP IN DEBATE

    US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION: HARRIS RATTLES ‘ANGRY’ TRUMP IN DEBATEFormer President Donald Trump found out Tuesday night that he’s got a much tougher rival on his hands now.Vice President Kamala Harris, who took the Democratic presidential nomination when President Joe Biden stepped aside after a catastrophic debate performance in June, delivered aggressive attacks and coherent rebuttals. And she baited Trump, who, in one particularly agitated moment, bristled at her attempt to interrupt him — with some allies saying after the debate that he had lost control at a key moment.“Wait a minute,” he scolded, his annoyance clear in his tone and expression. “I’m talking now. You don’t mind? … Does that sound familiar?”On Fox News, Laura Ingraham said Harris “moved the points a little bit on betting markets.” Three Republican sources — a political operative, a Trump ally and a donor — described Trump as coming off as “angry” as Harris pushed his buttons and got him going off on tangents after questions about some of his key policy areas.Another Trump fundraiser said Trump’s frustration hurt his ability to execute on his own plans and the points he wanted to make — but hoped that voters would feel similar rage.“Trump is so angry he can’t clearly get his message across,” the Trump fundraiser said. “She’s cool, calm and able to provoke him. I was stressing hearing it.” But, the fundraiser noted, American voters “are stressed and angry. Maybe they very well identify with Trump’s anger.”Trump has made his supporters white-knuckle through bad debate nights before, when he narrowly won the 2016 election and when he narrowly lost the 2020 election. But Trump, who was heartened in the past week by some more favorable public polling than he has seen recently, missed an opportunity to lock in his good personal vibes.After Tuesday’s matchup, he approached reporters to criticize the ABC News moderators and call the night a win. He declined to answer questions about committing to a second debate, which Harris’ campaign challenged him to do in a statement earlier in the night.“The polls are very good. I felt very good about it,” he said.In a debate that featured serious clashes over the economy, abortion and immigration — as well as a rare Harris discourse on racism and Trump’s repeating an unfounded meme claiming that immigrants are eating pets in Ohio — Trump tried to re-create the conditions of June’s matchup with Biden.He spoke about Biden almost as frequently as he addressed Harris, pursuing a strategy that his campaign previewed before Tuesday’s clash: an effort to prevent Harris from getting separation from the administration she has served in and from voters’ unhappiness with the direction of the country.“We’re playing with World War III and we have a president that we don’t even know if he is — where is our president? We don’t even know if he’s a president. They threw him out of a campaign like a dog,” Trump said. “We have a president who doesn’t even know he’s alive.”Harris, eager to portray herself as different from both Trump and Biden, reminded him that Biden won’t be on the ballot.“You’re not running against Joe Biden. You’re running against me,” Harris said early on. “Clearly I am not Joe Biden, and I am certainly not Donald Trump,” she said later. “What I do offer is a new generation of leadership for our country.”Harris pledged to ease pocketbook concerns for middle-class voters, touting plans to expand subsidies for first-time homebuyers, parents and small businesses. But she dodged a question right off the bat about whether the nation is better off economically than it was when Biden won the 2020 election.Trump said Harris has had 3½ years to make the changes she promises to make and argued…
