If you’re supporting the Democratic nominee for President, you have a very good chance of finding your people Tuesday night.
The Kamala Harris campaign for President is hosting at least 1,300 parties nationally to watch the debate, as the Vice President takes on Donald Trump in what looks to be their only faceoff of the campaign.
“With less than 60 days until Election Day, Team Harris-Walz is turning energy into action,” a spokesperson said.
“This debate is yet another moment our campaign is using to engage voters and volunteers for the fight ahead. This will be an incredibly close race. That’s why we are relentlessly mobilizing volunteers across the battlegrounds to activate their friends, families, and neighbors around the clear choice between Vice President Harris’ vision for the future and Donald Trump’s plans to drag us back.”
The campaign has parties across the 50 states, and Harris’ running mate Tim Walz and the potential Second Lady will be at events in Arizona and Wisconsin, respectively.
Meanwhile, a prominent Florida Republican was among the Trump surrogates on a call Monday previewing the debate.
“She’s been wrapped in bubble wrap since securing the nomination,” said U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz on the press call, referring to the Vice President’s very light interview schedule in recent weeks.
The 90-minute debate in Philadelphia will be moderated by “World News Tonight” anchor David Muir and ABC News Live “Prime” anchor Linsey Davis. No audience will be on hand. The broadcast starts at 9 p.m.
Polling shows a tight race between Harris and Trump, even in Florida. When “leaners” are factored in, an Emerson College survey of Florida shows a 51% to 48% lead for the Republican, who has carried the state previously in 2016 and 2020.
Trump led 48% to 43% in a Redfield and Wilton survey conducted Aug. 25-28.
These polls are slightly more favorable for Trump than the FiveThirtyEight average, which shows the former President with a 4.7-point lead.
Some other polls are closer: The Public Policy Polling survey of the state, conducted Aug. 21-22 for the Clean and Prosperous Energy PAC, shows Trump leading 51% to 47% overall in a two-person race
A Florida Chamber of Commerce/Cherry Communications poll released last week shows Trump ahead 52% to 45%, in a more Republican leaning survey.
Neither Harris nor Walz have campaigned in the state, but surrogates including Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chair Jaime Harrison, former DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and Florida Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried were in the state this week making their case for the ticket.

Again will the ABC activist moderators go tough on both candidates? Everyone knows those two libs will go after Trump. Will they do the same for Kammy?

If you mean by calling out a mentally senile old man who will rant and rave fake facts and stats, I hope they do call that out 🙂

Biggest question: Can Trump keep from meandering around the stage like a goon? (We can assume he won’t be able to keep his mind from wandering though perhaps Matt Gaetz has given him some tips on keeping focus.)

He didn’t move when he debated Slo Joe. The same rules are in place but by all means continue with your fantasy. Personally I’m looking forward to Kammy’s word salad. It will be a hoot.

word salad hahahahaha
“Well, I would do that. And we’re sitting down – you know, I was somebody – we had – Sen. Marco Rubio and my daughter Ivanka were so impactful on that issue. It’s a very important issue.But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about, that – because, look, child care is child care. It’s – couldn’t – you know, it’s something – you have to have it. In this country, you have to have it. But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to, but they’ll get used to it very quickly – and it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us but they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Because I have to say with child care – I want to stay with child care – but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about, including growth, but growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just – that I just told you about.”
HAHAHAHAHAHA

It’s so great so see his loving wife out there on the campaign trail supporting him like the dems have…ohhhhh wait, she sorta hopes he loses and goes to jail so she can cash out. Once a illegal foreign sex escort, always, I guess. Americans will vote him out again and then the courts will handle him. Get ready for angry Trump tonight, the walls are closing in and he knows it.

A prosecutor knows how to take down a convicted felon, usually a guarantee. I just hope he doesn’t collapse on the stage after all that afternoon coke and McDonalds burgers to get him in debate prep mode. LOL

The reason there’s no mention of the other side is there’s no other side to gather. Except for Alexa is stupid and Elvira Spitts and here you are. Thanks for letting us crash your party and stomp on your red hat. Idiots
