Chapters

This chapter discusses the upcoming debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. It explores the potential impact of the debate on the election, the strategies each candidate might employ, and the importance of showmanship in this particular matchup. The discussion also touches upon the significance of Harris's role as a woman of color in this context and the stark contrast she presents to Trump.
  • The Harris-Trump debate is expected to be a pivotal moment in the 2024 election.
  • Showmanship and personal attacks are likely to play a significant role, rather than substantive policy discussions.
  • Harris's background as a prosecutor and her quick wit are seen as potential advantages.
  • Trump's focus on image and branding could be a vulnerability.
  • The debate will be broadcast on a major network, potentially reaching a much wider audience than the first debate.
