Heading into the ABC debate, Kamala Harris’ team were desperate to have unmuted mics throughout so she could catch Trump with her new tactic of “Excuse me, I’m talking now,” if he tried to interject. However, it was Trump who reversed the play and used it on Harris in a master move.
Here’s the moment.
Trump: "Wait a minute, I'm talking now, if you don't mind, please – does that sound familiar? ? " pic.twitter.com/FpQ9hAKdom

The look on her face as she realises how this played out is priceless.
He just slapped Kamala's boss babe moment right out of her hand. She's so done.

It’s over for that strategy now.
He beat her to it.

If she was planning to use that line, she can't use it now… it just won't hit the same since he said it first.
Strategy ?
Mic drop moment for Trump

Many pointed out that while this moment was MAGA gold, the debate was more of a stalemate. Harris succeeded in that she didn’t completely fold and collapse like a house of cards.
She was capable of repeating without notes what she’d been briefed to say, and it has to be said, like it or not, Trump probably shouldn’t have yelled “They’re eating dogs!” when discussing illegal immigration, when there are so many more serious and impactful repercussions of the open border to focus on.
“In Springfield, they’re eating the dogs, the people that came in, they’re eating the cats, they’re eating the pets of the people that live there.”

He probably should’ve left it here:

Trump called out Harris’ Marxist past.
WOW.

Trump just SMOKED Kamala Harris LIVE on debate stage.
Debate over.
“It would be the end of our country. She’s a Marxist…” pic.twitter.com/5tyzNX36mp
He also pointed out that she hasn’t outlined any economic plan and has adopted Biden’s plan, which is “like Run, Spot, Run.”
KAMALA: "Donald Trump actually has no plan for you."

TRUMP: "That's just a soundbite. They gave her that to say." pic.twitter.com/nwlPpLLqVH
There were several moments when the debate moderators ‘fact checked’ Trump, but didn’t do the same to Harris, leading to accusations of bias.

After the debate Trump seemed unhappy about the bias, stating that he doesn’t see why he should do another debate because of it.
NOW – President Trump responds to Harris Campaign wanting a second debate; “That’s because she lost. She wants it because she lost——If you won the debate I sort of think maybe I shouldn’t do it. Why should I do another debate?”pic.twitter.com/CAapi2sd3N

“Maybe if it was on a fair network I would do that,” Trump stated.
The likes of MSNBC were ecstatic with Harris’ debate performance, saying it “may very well be the best televised debate performance ever.”

As we highlighted yesterday, this was their playbook. They lowered expectations.
The hard truth is, it wasn’t a great performance by Trump, and therefore Harris managed to stay afloat.

Kamala was never actually elected to any office. Commies install people they can control. Joe’s brain died unexpectedly so the had to slide the next seat warmer in line by law.
Nobody knows who’s running the country.
BTW the Trump economy was the best since Reagan. Ask any business if you can find one not filing for chapter 11 since the Biden/Harris install. The only policy this clown show has is welfare. All communist nations have failed over the last century.
It was pretty much what I thought, a 3 on 1 fight.
Don OLD lost plain and simple.proved he is a moron.
You’re not alone, ALL mental midget morons feel the same. Back in Realityland, Trump crushed the lowlife, filthy, skank-ho. FACT.
Two corrupt compulsive LIARS!
Two “israelis” that hate us Humans
but LOVE power!
The only “choice” here is
do you want the country that used
to be America to die of Syphilis or of Cancer!?
Choose now, White Cowards, and then
you can go back to that delicious Kosher butt
you were munching!
