The first presidential debate was face-to-face between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris in a live News program. They discussed issues as the United States gears up for its elections. The debate also included their first handshake as they chatted, ending an eight-year no-handshake policy on camera.
Harris focused on her middle-class upbringing when talking about the economy and skewered Trump for prioritizing “billionaires and big corporations. ” Harris said, “Donald Trump has no plan for you. ” When asked about immigration, Trump attacked Biden’s record, and Harris retorted, “You’re going to get more of the same—lies and complaints. “
It progressively led to the discussion of abortion, with Harris responding that Trump would nevertheless make one should he be elected. Trump responded by saying, “She is lying. ” Throughout the debate, Harris encouraged people to go to Trump’s rallies, saying that many people leave because they get bored.
In this matter, Harris supported a two-state solution to the Middle East conflict between Israel and the Hamas organization. At the same time, Trump said the situation would have been different had he been president. This debate amply highlighted the differences that separated the two contenders in the upcoming election.
