Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are set to face off in their first and possibly only debate Tuesday night in Philadelphia. The high-pressure event will showcase their differing visions for the country following a tumultuous campaign summer. Harris aims to present a stronger Democratic case against Trump, while he plans to paint her as an out-of-touch liberal.
The debate comes as early ballots are set to be sent out, with Trump highlighting Harris’s past liberal positions and touting her presidency as a threat to national security and the economy. Harris, on the other hand, plans to argue that Trump is unfit and unstable, especially in light of his remarks and actions since losing the 2020 election.
The event will provide Americans with a detailed look at the campaign, which has seen dramatic changes with Biden’s exit, Trump surviving an assassination attempt, and both sides selecting their running mates. Harris, who has had limited public appearances in recent weeks, will face sustained questioning during the debate.
Trump’s team insists his approach won’t change facing a female opponent, while Harris is expected to focus on Trump’s inconsistencies on women’s issues and portray herself as a steadier leader. The vice president has been preparing for the debate in Pennsylvania and is ready to counter any lies or attacks from Trump during the event.
