Let’s Talk About the Debate!

Kamala Harris-Donald Trump Sept 10 presidential debatePlease join me in the Comments section below and share your thoughts on and reactions to the Harris-Trump debate on Tuesday, September 20, 2024 at 6 PM Pacific Time.

I’ll say a few words here, the day before the debate. And then, with interested readers, I’ll post further thoughts and observations in the Comments section below – before, during, and after the debate.

My Incoming Thoughts....

I believe Harris will do very well, given her track record both as an experienced debater and a former prosecutor. And Trump… will be Trump, as they say. It will be most interesting to see if his recent spate of increasingly wild and incoherent statements continues into the debate. I remember thinking Trump kept his cool pretty well in his June 27 debate with Biden. So we’ll see.

And I confess, I also thought going into that debate that Biden would do well. But, alas, it was clear a few minutes in that my optimism was misplaced. I love Joe and consider him to be the best president of my lifetime. But that night I realized the time had come to pass the torch.

So in this second presidential debate of the 2024 campaign, when it comes to speaking skill and cognitive sharpness, Kamala ain’t Joe… nor Trump for that matter. Advantage Harris.


It’s going to be interesting. Not to mention consequential. Let’s talk!

    Not the best start.. But I think she’s getting better, maybe less nervous 🤔

      Agree. She seemed nervous at first, but she seems to have found her footing. Great responses on abortion.

    Hope she, or a moderator, directly refutes his lie about who pays for tariffs.

    What’s wrong with using desert land for solar energy? 🤨 Does he have better plans for it?

    OK, I’m calling it. Trump is blowing up as so many predicted he would. And what I really look forward to is the post-debate commentary and fact-checking. The issues and his lies about them are in sharper focus than they’ve ever been.

    I would love to see a AI real time fact checker on the screen during debate. That would be golden.

      Interesting idea… though I’m not sure AI is up to the task. Makes a lot of mistakes. But I love the idea.

    Just struck me how different this debate would be going if it were Joe up there instead of Kamala. I mean, I love Biden, best president of my lifetime, as I’ve often said. But man, what a difference.

    Still floored that Trump doubled down on his Central Park 5 ad. Then again, I’m not surprised. What a debate.
