New York Democrats reveled in Vice President Kamala Harris’ ability to put Republican former President Donald Trump on the defensive during their first, and likely only, presidential debate on Tuesday night.
Over the course of the roughly 90-minute debate, hosted by ABC News in Philadelphia, Harris successfully goaded Trump into going on angry, unhinged tangents instead of hitting her over President Biden’s record on the economy and immigration. Some of Trump’s worst moments saw him repeating false claims that newly arrived immigrants are eating people’s pets in Springfield, Ohio, and the debunked notion that some states allow for abortions after babies are born.
