TRUMP vs KALAMITY HARRIS & ABC

A skilled debater who had command of the facts like Ted Cruz, Ron DeSantis or the late William F. Buckley or Christopher Hitchens would have eviscerated Kalamity Harris on Tuesday night regardless of the left-wing bias of ABC's David Muir and Linsey Davis. We cannot take refuge in blaming them for DT’s obvious lack of preparation. 

To paraphrase Bill Maher, you could count on one hand the number of times Kalamity actually answered a question unless that hand had no fingers. Nevertheless, DT torpedoed himself. He was not properly prepared and had his own word-salad moments. He resorted to platitudes, boasts without much detail and the shouting style that characterized his first debate with Basement Biden in 2020 which ended in disaster.

Kalamity got under DT’s skin and skillfully provoked him. Take note Donald: "You will never reach your destination if you stop and throw stones at every dog that barks", Winston Churchill once observed.

Unless DT is willing to get some help from skilled debaters, study the details of possible attacks and understand his opponent’s strategy and tactics he should avoid the debate stage.

On another matter, he should not have debated Biden in June but left it to much later in the campaign when it would have been almost impossible to replace Biden whose poll numbers were swiftly sinking assuring his inevitable defeat.

Now, the Democrats are busy trying to rehabilitate someone who was their party’s laughingstock until Biden imploded during his debate with DT in June. 

Turning a sow’s ear into a silk purse is a formidable task even for Democrats, but there is no need for DT’s lack of preparation to make it easy for them. He must do better. Remember, vote for Trump. If he ruins the country at least it won't be on purpose!
