Reagan was terrible in the first debate in 1984.
HW was terrible in his debates in 1992.
Kerry smoked W in the first debate in 2004.
Romney smoked Obama in the first debate in 2012.
Trump was terrible in the first debate in 2020.
Biden died at the first debate in 2024.

Incumbent Presidents always struggle in their first debate. Their opponent has a better performance because the opponent has been debating through the primaries and are fresh from that practice. Trump didn't do primary debates but his debate against Biden in June was a good warm up for tomorrow night. The incumbent struggles because they have to knock off debate rust from not debating since 4 years ago.

Kamala will struggle because she hasn't debated since the 2020 cycle. She also hasn't done anything over that time to stay sharp and fresh like press conferences or interviews.

This hasn't been talked about at all but you'll see it happen tomorrow night.

She debated Pence in 2020 correct? She wasn’t very good at it though.

Oh yeah, point still stands. The incumbent hasn't debated since the previous election cycle.

Perhaps OP. Perhaps given a level playing field. The MSM/Pravda will do all they can to help Harris. Our current media, esp the big 3 networks are DNC shills now.

Start off the debate by saying your heart is with the folks of Louisiana.

Im sure they’re engineering her approach to get in several strong black woman clapbacks. That they can piece together into a reel for the low IQ yass queens to watch repeatedly on tiktok

Kamala will struggle because she is limited. Her best hope is that Trump bails her out by acting abrasive. Also, having the questions up front is an advantage for her.

Reports are she’s been preparing to try to get under Trumps skin and provoke him, rather than preparing with facts for the debate. I predict that she’s gonna lose bigly, but the MSM will say she clearly won.

Lmao keep dreaming. She’s gonna embarrass Trump. Trump is a horrible debater. All he does is insult and talk over his opponents. He’s never been good at explaining his policies.

I expect a good 2pt poll bump post debate.

No, she’ll struggle because she’s a lousy orator and isn’t capable of thinking on the fly.

How much do you expect reporting from those particular outlets to move the needle with those whom it matters most, at this point in time?
