Supporters of Kamala Harris and Donald Trump turned out to watch the presidential debate at similar-sized events, but with different vibes.
People gather at the Angry Elephant to watch the first presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris Tuesday evening.We know you value our education reporting. We need your help in raising $20,000 to hire a reporter dedicated to covering higher education in San Antonio.On opposite sides of the city Tuesday night Republicans and Democrats were huddling to watch the first — and perhaps only — debate of the 2024 presidential election.
Unlike Democrats, who hosted numerous watch parties across the city, the GOP’s gathering was informal. Lane Avery, who attended with a friend and wore a white Make America Great Again hat, said he normally comes to the Angry Elephant to watch sports, but saw on their Instagram page that they were streaming the debate. At age 24, he said he’s excited to cast his first presidential election vote for Trump this November.
They cheered hard when Harris said Trump had been “fired by 81 million voters,” and appreciated her joke about him getting forgetful about the last election.
