Reed Galen：特朗普及其追随者从不承认错误，只会不断加深谎言。他们利用谎言和煽动恐惧来转移注意力，并试图吓唬白人选民。这种策略在过去有效，现在仍然在使用。许多特朗普支持者只从单一信息来源获取信息，这使得他们难以被说服。尽管特朗普的所作所为，仍然有一半的美国人支持他，这令人难以置信。为了赢得选举，民主党必须明确表示他们希望获胜，并且不应该投票给特朗普。积极的竞选情绪对民主党选民的投票率至关重要。民主党选民的投票意愿与其对候选人的好感度密切相关。选民更关注价值观和胜负，而不是具体的政策问题。哈里斯竞选团队正在有效地运用针对特朗普的策略。特朗普需要关注，无论这种关注是正面还是负面。
Abby Tracy：面对特朗普的明显谎言，即使事实核查也难以反驳，因为其支持者对媒体的信任度低。特朗普多年来一直在制造对媒体的不信任和不和谐，这使得反驳他的谎言变得非常困难。当特朗普感到处于劣势时，他会加倍使用阴谋论和谎言。特朗普的政治策略一直是利用谎言和煽动恐惧来制造分裂。许多自称"未决定"的选民实际上已经暗自决定了他们的投票意向。泰勒·斯威夫特的背书更有可能影响年轻选民的投票率，而不是改变他们的政治立场。持续关注特朗普的言行，可以洞察其竞选策略和心态变化。
