Former President Donald Trump and current Vice President Kamala Harris face off on Tuesday for their pivotal and likely only debate of the election campaign.
The United States and the international community look forward to the first meeting between the two candidates bee American presidential election A television debate will begin on November 5 9:00 PM on TuesdaySeptember 10 (03:00 on September 11 in Euskal Herria).
Donald Trump And Kamala Harris They will face off at the ABC network’s studios in Philadelphia, where they will star in what will likely be the only debate of the election campaign. The previous confrontation between Democrats and Republicans –between Trump and Biden, June 27– will go down in history for hastening the withdrawal of the candidacy of the current Democratic president.
The polls are very close and both leaders will use their best weapons to win the vote of the undecided.
The size
The debate will last 90 minutesin which there will be two commercial breaks.
The moderators They will be the anchors of the ABC News network, David Muir and Linsey Davis and there will be no live audience.
There will be no opening statements initially. During the other candidate’s interventions, the microphones will be turned off to avoid interruptions, with only the moderators being able to ask questions.
The candidates will have two minutes to respond to references, with the current party in power, the Democrats, having the right to respond first. They will also have one minute for rebuttals or clarifications, with no opportunity to ask each other questions. The farewell speech will be opened by Trump.
It is prohibited to use any type of element or props. Trump and Harris will stand at a lectern and will only be able to carry a pen, a notebook or a notepad and a bottle of water.
First live confrontation
Although they have had infamous confrontations in the media, such as when Trump wondered if Kamala was blackBesides calling her “evil and stupid,” it’s the first time they’ve met in a debate.
She has described him more than once as a “criminal” and “a danger in every way” and they will undoubtedly meet again at Tuesday night’s meeting, but it remains to be seen whether the language will be more restrained or not.
Trump has more experience than Harris in the television format. The current vice president has faced a political rival only once (she faced Mike Pence, Trump’s vice president in the 2020 election) and recently starred in his first interview on CNN.
The most controversial topics: war, immigration and abortion
The Israeli offensive against Gaza, the war in Ukraine and the resources allocated by the US, immigration, the wall with Mexico and abortion rights are expected to be some of the mainstays of both candidates’ speeches.
Trump never tires of repeating to Biden that “the wars are back,” while Kamala recalls Trump repeating and repeating that Mexico would pay for the wall between the two countries and that it didn’t. Moreover, after being former President Trump found guilty of 34 chargesHarris has brought up her past as a prosecutor on more than one occasion, recalling that she “prosecuted a lot of criminals like Trump.”
Abortion rights are another issue they face. While Trump boasted during his time as his role in overturning Roe v. Wade (federal abortion protections) Harris said the former president “poses a threat to reproductive freedom,” something she will defend for all Americans.
