I have no idea, do you?

In 2003.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

I am telling you the truth is that she is going to gut Trump on the debate stage

Why would you think that when her debate performances have been so awful?

They cannot be taken seriously.

Frank Bruni is quite the accomplished journalist. That facts is indisputable. In his article he puts forth an opinion based on facts before him, rather than an opinion we often see -- of a partisan opinion in search of facts to back up the opinion. I like his thoughts on this, because it gets into Trump's on again/off again shoutings of whether or not he'll debate Harris, when, why, how, if...

Trump Should Be Scared — Very Scared — of Debating Kamala Harris​

It’s easy to find examples of Vice President Kamala Harris answering questions in a vacuous, speciously thoughtful manner that borders on caricature, and it’s easy to conclude from that oratorical oatmeal that she has delayed a one-on-one sit-down with a serious journalist because she’s not nimble in unscripted situations or fluent in the necessary facts. Those are the Republican talking points, anyway.

But that assessment ignores her performance in a 2020 debate with the vice president at that time, Mike Pence. Remember it? A high-stakes encounter as risky as any interview with any network heavyweight, she did fine. Better than fine, in fact. Several post-debate surveys of viewers, including one published by 538 and another by CNN, found that Harris won it. Granted, Pence was contending with a fly’s decision to claim a time-share on his head, but still. He had been on the national political stage longer than she had, and she wasn’t buggy in the least.

Which is why Donald Trump’s recent complaints about and threats to back out of the planned ABC News debate on Sept. 10 make total sense. He should be hesitant. In fact, he should be scared.

Here's Frank in an interview (Frank Bruni — The Age of Grievance) where among other things, MTG was discussed:

Greene called ‘bleach blonde bad-built butch body’ in House screaming match where ‘drinking was involved’​

Both Republicans and Democrats said on Friday drinking was taking place​

She is going to tear Trump apart!

 

[EvilCat Breath]

She is going to tear Trump apart!

She will do the same fantastic job that she did last time she was in a debate.

 

[LeroyDumonde]

I don't remember her doing well against Pence. I remember Pence being mind numbingly dull. This may have fooled Democrats into thinking that she had done well.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Harris is going to make Trump wish that he were a real man.

 

[scruffy]

Journalism is a dishonorable profession.

 

[Billo_Really]

She will do the same fantastic job that she did last time she was in a debate.

I'll wager she gets him so pissed off, he walks off the set!
