(Win McNamee / Getty Images)That sound you heard at around 10:45 Eastern time on Tuesday night was a collective sigh of relief from Democrats across the country. Kamala Harris had debated Donald Trump, and, unlike Joe Biden, she had survived. Not just that—she was widely declared the winner, having successfully provoked Trump into a series of incoherent rants for most of the debate’s 90 minutes.
Experts love telling us that debates don’t matter that much—that they rarely shift the dynamics of a campaign. We know that the Biden-Trump debate was a hellish exception to that supposed rule. But what about the Harris-Trump debate? Did Harris turn this into a different kind of race? Will Trump’s meltdowns hurt his chances? Or are giddy Democrats tempting fate, 2016-style?
On this episode of See How They Run, we’re debating the debate. And standing at the lectern opposite mine is our national affairs correspondent Jeet Heer.
