Trending searches: who is winning the debate so far
kamla Harris may have been the so-called winner as far as the pundits are concerned but she still didn't address the issues that Americans really care about for example the economy I we didn't hear anything about the economy barely I mean the first question she got was on the economy and she completely strayed she was quite nervous did you notice that I did dry mouth and the whole thing take some water comma calm down she was very nervous you could hear it in her voice you could see it in her expressions and in her body language and she completely ignored the question that the moderators gave her and so Americans are left saying well who is this lady is she really capable of solving my challenges and the short answer ladies and gentlemen is no this did not help kamla Harris in terms of outlining any kind of policy not that she has any to the American people and this was reflected immediately thereafter in a CNN politic look at the economy here uh who would you who would better handle the economy is what we ask going into the debate before the debate 37% said Harris 53% Trump after the debate again margin of error stuff here but numerically she lost a little ground 35% said so after the debate that she would better handle the economy 55% said Trump and we know that is one of his strongest suits across the polling in this election and he seemed to hang on to that piece in this debate tonight according to our poll of debate Watchers and yeah he did he did because Americans know just exactly how bad it is how bad it is I mean my gosh you look at inflation you look at grocery prices nothing that we saw on stage last night actually addressed any of those key issues they didn't talk about any policy for some reason the moderators at ABC News are quite incapable of that and we know kamla obviously isn't after all kamla didn't you have any policy on her website she threw a few things up actually yesterday right ahead of the debate this was classic so she copied and pasted from Joe Biden's policy page literally copied and pasted to the point where the source code could actually be viewed on Google so that became the headline she literally copied and past it I mean you want to talk more in the same just copy and paste well Nate silver who's a big deal pollster he's out with a warning he's out saying hey hang on don't count your tickets before they hatch because you know I'm looking at these polls and she really hasn't picked up the kind of bounce that you would have thought say coming out of the DNC she's still polling very very weakly with men specifically white middle-aged men in places like Pennsylvania that kind of really matter and so consequently he's saying you know she didn't come off with perhaps the sophistication policy wise that the American people were really craving so he writes in his silver bulletin by the way he used to work for ABC ABC acquired 538 and this is an article that was in Newsweek paraphrasing saying um that you know he's still giving Trump a better than 60% chance of defeating Harris or rather he had before the debate and he wrote in silver bulletin just after the debate that there was quote a strong consensus that Harris won the night before cautioning that pundits might be getting a little carried away about the debate's impact quote it would be surprising if this had any impact on the scale of the Biden Trump debate for instance Silva wrote Harris got the debate she wanted if she isn't able to move the needle in the poles at least a little bit maybe that means the country just isn't buying what she's selling and I would say you know what that's spot on no no one's buying what kamla Harris is selling and you have only to go to some of the network focus groups that came out immediately there after before we do that take a look here these are the swing states where hey guess what imagine this the economy actually matters because the economy really stinks in places like Wisconsin Michigan Pennsylvania Nevada Georgia North Carolina and Arizona and look at how tight it is you think that she did anything to actually improve her standing on where she is on the economy the short answer is no
