Report: Kamala Harris to Prioritize Attacks on Trump Rather than ‘Substance’ During Debate
Breitbart ^ | 09/02/2024 | Nick Gilbertson

Posted on 09/02/2024 11:22:45 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Vice President Kamala Harris will apparently favor attacks on former President Donald Trump rather than “substance” at the September 10 ABC News presidential debate, according to a report.

NBC News reported late Thursday on Harris’s plan, which centers around trying to agitate Trump:

A source told NBC News that while Harris’ team is preparing to talk about a variety of topics, the campaign very much views the optics of the debate as critically important. To that end, the source said, Harris and her team are focusing on homing in on how to needle Trump to rattle him.

In that sense, the source said, it’s going to be less about substance and more about showcasing Harris as a woman who isn’t scared and isn’t going to cower and who is standing up to Trump and holding him accountable.

The linked article contains a portion of article from NBC News (no longer fake news?) , which references only a “report “ and a “source “. Have standards been lowered?

Very smart plan on her part, since she is wrong on all the real issues.

Except she’s only going to succeed in confirming that she’s nasty.

She has no choice. She has no substance, whatsoever.

Dilley just said all that on his show, and he’s the most hard core pro-Trump guy around. He said Trump will win the election and they will install her anyway. I put nothing past this bunch.

ABC will help with the Dem’s strategy. Their questions for Trump will be….. It has been reported that… …. Followed by a lie or false accusation. …. How do you explain ?

Questions for Kamala will be in the form… how does it feel to be the first woman of color to be the presidential nominee?

Trump needs to be prepared for the question… How does it feel to be the first presidential nominee to be a convicted felon? I hate the propaganda press.

Trump doesn’t look like he’s worried about Harris.
He shouldn’t be be worried:

In 2020 Biden had 100x the name recognition as Harris does now. In 2016 Hillary had 100x the brainpower as Harris will ever have.

After she loses in November, the rhetoric from the democrat camp will be.... misogyny & racism caused the loss....not that the party bigwigs selected a dope.

When someone calls you a rapist you uave to respond. I can see this coming. She will focus on him being s convicted Felon and liable for “Rape”. Trump’s instinct will 100% be to defend himself but if he can diciplin himself for 2hrs to, by and large, ignore the attacks this could be the absolute best thing for Trump. Prepare yourself to say, all of this is what happens when you weaponize the DOJ against your political opponent and the immediately pivot to, but that doesn’t close the border, that doesn’t lower cost. Prosecutors dont generally concern themselves with inflation and I can see this one is no different. Etc. Just stay on issues and she’s done!

My exact thought!

To co-opt a phrase from “Serpent Head,” James Carville... “It’s the policies, Stupid!”

I hope and pray “45” exploits the failed policies!

Kangaroo district attorney.

Kangaroo court and judge and jury.

Evil Lawfare—and the American people know that it can happen to them if they vote for Democrats.

They only attack me because I am in the way of them attacking you.

Easy peasy.

this is where Tulsi Gabbard comes in. I’d bet she’ll be putting him through several sessions of how to respond to namecalling. Tulsi should have him primed to stay cool no matter what the insult is.

I wish that you were on Trump’s debate prep team. JD Vance is an expert at this kind of pivoting after an attack question. Perhaps Trump can learn from watching him.

This is either true or a 100% fake out.

Trump needs to figure out how to not appear condescending to her, yet let her hang herself and wait for the campaign to selectively edit the video to make her look foolish in ads.

Policy, policy, policy.

And a total Reagan demeanor. Let the movie critics make the comparisons.

This will fall flat.

Democrats will love the attacks because it’s all about emotions.

Trump’s legions will scoff at it, all about feelings, no substance.

Independents want to know what her plans for the economy and border are, and they’ll be very disappointed.

This is assuming that there will be a debate.

I think she’s going to chicken out, and hide until election day.

Democrats will rely on the massive army of legal teams they’ve assembled to stop Trump’s victory.

The danger is what the rogue nations will do knowing that Trump will resume office.

He’s been talking about World War 3 a lot at his rallies, and there are so many hot spots that could flash into open war.

And Joe Biden is at the beach all the time now.

What to do ……

Harris and her team make this too easy.

That’s smart.

If Trump has a weakness it’s vanity/narcissism.

To beat him in a debate, getting under his skin is a good strategy.
