Stage is set for 1st (and maybe only) Trump, Harris debate

all around the site of the debate security fencing and yes posters promoting kamla Harris over here and Donald Trump up there indeed at a bustling Food Market in downtown Philadelphia politics is front of mind one day ahead of the big Harris Trump debate say Harris backers she's a badass I'm I'm and she's smart as a whip so I I mean maybe I shouldn't say this in advance I'm not really worried about it and as for Trump supporters if you were talking to Donald Trump right now about Tuesday what would you say to him keep cool don't lose your temper cuz they're going to go for that tens of millions will be watching what will likely be the only time the two will face each other in person before votes are cast in a country divided with the contest neck and neck debates matter in close elections Kathleen Hall Jameson a long-standing Observer of presidential debates underlines the stakes in this one are super high for both but Stakes higher for Harris because there's more capacity for her to be defined by Trump and to Define herself than there is for Trump to do either for himself the Harris team now with a new anti-trump ad using clips from Trump's former Inner Circle now those people have a warning for America Trump is not fit to be president again Chief among them former vice president Mike Pence now no fan of his old boss it should come as is no surprise that I will not be endorsing Donald Trump this year I'm kamla Harris and I approve this message Trump meanwhile now posting a torrent of anti-h Harris memes on his truth social site back at the food market some who will be watching make clear what they're actually hoping for what do you want to see from either of the candidates coherence I just so much of this has been babbling nonsense I'd like to see coherent ideas and whether that happens Adrien depends on the two candidates and Paul you know there's been such a huge focus on the rules of this debate can you remind us where things have landed yeah lots of them uh no opening statements straight to questions two minutes per answer 2 minutes per rebuttal each candidate will have with them on stage strictly a pen some paper and some water no prompts controversially candidates who are not on camera will have their microphones turned off the Harris team had one of them kept on in case Donald Trump tried to shout over KLA Harris they figured he'd look bad the Trump team argued the opposite that the microphones should be kept off when not on camera and the Trump team won them's the rules all right Paul Hunter in Philadelphia tonight thanks Paul
