Did Trump Lose the Debate?

In fact, it wasn’t even a debate. Just as the previous Trump-Biden debates were designed as an event to remove Biden, these were designed as an opportunity to say that “the race is now finally tilting in Harris’ favor.” It was a well-prepared dressing-down for Trump.

The ABC News moderators constantly gave their fact-checking remarks, playing along with Harris and pointing out inaccuracies and “fakes” from Trump. Kamala Harris was well prepared for the debate, and the format itself helped her speak in a memorized and coherent manner.

Well, Trump was Trump, and not only is he a bad debater, in this format he looked irritated and unfocused. And yet, Kamala’s campaign made one big mistake, which followed from the entire media logic of the fight against Trump. Harris tried to do what the liberal media constantly repeated: she laughed at her opponent.

Maybe it was well-intended, but it looked… As annoyingly unpleasant as a woman who despises a man can look in a public conversation, that’s what Kamala looked like. And since the political struggle in the US has long since moved into the emotional realm (with hatred being the main one), this behavior worked against Kamala.

There is no doubt that now the liberal media will trumpet Harris’s victory and Trump’s almost complete “destruction” in the debates — that’s how it was intended. But there are still almost two months until the election, and a lot will happen (even if nothing happens, it will be an event), and these debates will not noticeably affect the outcome of the election, just as the election will not resolve the political situation in the US. Such civil conflicts simply cannot be resolved at the polls.

If liberals believe that Donald Trump has been humiliated, well, they may be right. But this humiliation is another step towards civil war.
