In last night's debate with the unhinged and angry Malignant Loser, Vice President Harris did what she needed to do and more to advance her campaign, and voters agreed. CNN's post-debate flash poll had Harris winning the debate 63% to 37%. It was even more pronounced than that, considering that 37% is the hard core cult. She had him on the ropes, almost toying with his growing temper as he flubbed responses on women's reproductive rights, immigration ("dogs and cats are being eaten"), and the January 6 insurrection ("it was Pelosi's fault"). Notably, the ABC News moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis stopped to call the Malignant Loser out on several blatant lies, unlike the sad performance of Jake Tapper and Dana Bash during the Biden-Trump debate.
The Malignant Loser was successfully baited by the calm and composed Harris, who smiled and shook her head at his jumbled, dishonest answers. From CNN:
"The vice president had prepared extensively for their debate, and peppered nearly every answer with a comment designed to enrage the former president. She told Trump that world leaders were laughing at him, and military leaders called him a 'disgrace.' She called Trump 'weak' and 'wrong.' She said Trump was fired by 81 million voters – the number that voted for President Joe Biden in 2020.
'Clearly, he’s having a very difficult time processing that,' she said.
Trump was often out of control. He loudly and repeatedly insisted that a whole host of falsehoods were true. The former president repeated lies about widespread fraud in the 2020 election. He parroted a conspiracy theory about immigrants eating pets, and lied about Democrats supporting abortions after babies are born – which is murder, and illegal everywhere." (our emphasis)
It was a bad night for the Malignant Loser, who was in his deranged rally form for most of the debate, while Harris looked confident and nailed him point-by-point. It was also a bad night for his wallet, as his Trump Media scam lost 15% in pre-market trading. The Malignant Loser owns more than 50% of the company's increasingly worthless stock. Sad!

My hubby and I laughed, cheered and fist-bumped because we knew Trump couldn't resist the Haitian pet-eaters! Faced with a strong opponent willing to call him out on weakness, Trump proved she was right. When a strong candidate is paired with skilled moderators, we get actual substance. The only downside with debate moderation was whoever had power over the mute buttons. Several times, when Trump was not asked a question and was not in official rebuttal time, he started angry tirades and his mic was turned back on! This gave him 5 more minutes of speaking time than Harris! The extra time didn't help Trump at all, but...still! 🤬
Cleora -- yes, not employing the mute button on the buffoon stuck in my craw, too. But, as you suggest, it didn't help (and probably hurt) him.
