Saying stuff off-the-cuff is not the purpose of a debate. It’s to tell people positions that you already hold. Harris did this on several occasions here. She stated actual policy goals as well as personal positions on different topics. Trump just yelled about all the typical things and never once stated an actual reason he should be president. The best we got from him was “I have concepts of a plan.”

I agree it was infuriating, but Harris did some some things of substance, even if anyone paying attention would have already known it.

Will this actually matter though? I somewhat doubt it, but I’ll wait to see. I’m hoping it does, but we may be well beyond reason as a society.
