I still think that Donald Trump failed miserably in the recent debate. His focus was too narrow and he repeated (valid) issues regarding immigration etc. when he could have noted numerous other flaws in his opponent’s policies. While I agree with him regarding the fraudulent activity in the 2020 election (plenty of evidence of manipulations), independents don’t want to hear about it.
After listening to numerous appraisals of the debate performances, I’m a little less pessimistic about the ultimate result.
Everyone knows the high stakes in this election. Trump’s supporters “want their country back” from socialist/globalist ideologues and Harris supporters either want the ability to drive their “revolution” to its conclusion or they’re clueless as to what the issues actually are and think something as simple as, “she’s a black woman” suffices for leadership standing.
A debate in this election should be directed at independents — those who could go either way and just need to be made aware of where the Democomms are taking the country. Harris’ bromides about “looking to the future” would hold little weight before a barrage of skillful rhetorical attack.
Immediately after the debate, the confident Harris staff was so impressed with her performance that they expressed the desire for another debate (something they initially cowered in fear over). That may be a tragic error on Harris’ part.
While Trump thought he did well, he does listen to his supporters and his family. No doubt he will be made aware of the finer points of the interaction and could get back to a leaner approach if there should be a second round.
In some ways, this debate was like the so-called “Hollywood Access” tape that everyone thought would finish him. In the end, it ended up being just another almost comical chapter in the never-ending roller coaster of Trump failures and successes.
Millions still want their constitutional republic back. A flawed debate performance isn’t going to matter all that much when the future of free society is at stake.
