Hot Hours in Philadelphia
The pulse of world politics is now beating in Philadelphia. The two rivals of the U.S. presidential election are facing each other for a debate hosted by ABC in this city. This city in the key state of Pennsylvania is hosting a multitude of journalists, experts, and politicians who have flocked to cover the news related to the debate. Trump has spent the last couple of days practicing, and Harris has also prepared for the debate with the help of her advisors. In the current situation and following the release of new polls, Harris’s campaign is facing fresh warnings. She is not sufficiently ahead of her rival in the credible averages of conducted polls and must navigate a tough path in the debate. Warnings from Harris’s supporting experts about the dangers of debating Trump have become serious in recent hours. Many experts are concerned about the repetition of some of her weaknesses in the 2020 preliminary election debates, while others are confident in her ability to stand against her rival due to her background as a prosecutor and her presence in courtrooms. On the other hand, Trump’s advisors have promised that Trump is well-prepared to highlight Harris’s liberal views and her association with Biden’s weaknesses. They have promised special surprises.
In her recent radio interview, Harris promised to expose Trump and stand up against him. Trump has long promised his supporters that Harris is weaker than Biden and that she will let herself get into trouble just like Biden. Harris has practiced intensely, and this might not be a positive point. Some believe that she has devoted herself too much to practice, and this excessive focus on the debate will cause her to be caught off guard by Trump’s surprises. On the other hand, the person who has trained her for the debate with Trump is a formidable figure, Philippe Reines, who was previously Hillary’s advisor and trained her for the debate with Trump in 2016. He has dedicated himself to the task this time. He has started gaining weight and has been living around Harris dressed in typical Trump attire and looking like him. Prominent Democratic political managers consider him a terrifying and committed figure who does not hold back and has certainly prepared Harris for the confrontation with Trump. Paul Begala, the famous Democratic political manager, has described him as one of the scariest political figures among Democrats, and many have used the term ruthless to describe him.
In the remaining hours until the debate, new polls indicate a close race between the two rivals. Harris is hoping to turn the tide of the election, a feat that election winners have repeatedly accomplished in recent decades.
