She made a forceful case at the debate that her boss never could.
The first debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris may well end up being the last debate between the two presidential hopefuls. In the aftermath of Tuesday’s 90-minute showdown, Trump himself suggested he was less than inclined to set up a rematch, which gives a pretty strong sense of how poorly he thinks it went for him.
For Harris, one thing was resoundingly clear: She is nothing like Joe Biden on the debate stage. She said as much herself, in a phrase that was clearly practiced, and carefully deployed, down the debate’s homestretch. In an exchange that was emblematic of the evening, Trump, attempting to bring the conversation back around to inflation, said, “She is Biden.” Harris sharply responded: “Clearly, I am not Joe Biden, and I am certainly not Donald Trump.
For Democrats, this simple fact was a giant relief. Harris proved herself to be a more than capable messenger for the Democratic Party and an unflappable sparring partner in the face-off with the contentious former president. Compared to Biden, the difference in style couldn’t have been more obvious. Harris was able to go on the offensive, attacking Trump on his record and his character. She was able to engage with and rebut his obvious falsehoods. She was—let’s just say it like it is—able to avoid looping, elliptical digressions, speak in short and complete sentences, and avoid major gaffes like misnaming and mistitling her running mate.
