PHILADELPHIA – Kamala Harris put Donald Trump on the defensive in a fiery televised debate Tuesday , getting under her rival’s skin as they battled for a breakthrough in an agonizingly close US presidential election.
Trump said afterwards the ABC News-hosted clash in Philadelphia was his “best debate” but snap polls and commentators said Harris had won, with her campaign quickly challenging him to a second debate in October. Trump repeatedly raised his voice as he hit back at the vice president on immigration and the economy, branding her a “Marxist” and blaming her for what he said were the failings of President Joe Biden’s administration.
Another jarring clash came as Trump doubled down on his unprecedented refusal to accept losing to Biden in the 2020 election, before trying to overturn the result. The rivals also clashed on foreign policy, with Harris telling Trump that Russian President Vladimir Putin would “eat you for lunch” when it came to the war in Ukraine and that world leaders were “laughing” at him.But Harris, who spent five days intensively preparing for the debate, repeatedly managed to needle Trump into finger-jabbing insults and meandering invective.
He ended up talking at length about a debunked conspiracy theory that Haitian immigrants have been eating local people’s pet cats and dogs in Ohio — before being corrected by the moderator that authorities have said this didn’t happen.The last presidential debate in June had resulted in a crushing victory for Trump, after Biden delivered a catastrophic performance that ended up dooming his reelection campaign.
