As the upcoming presidential election draws near, the anticipation for the debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris is mounting. Scheduled for September 10 and to be hosted by ABC, this debate will serve as a crucial moment for both candidates to present their platforms and engage with voters.
Following the conclusion of the Democratic National Convention, Harris has shifted her focus towards preparing for the debate. She recently held her first formal debate training session at Howard University, her alma mater, where she is working closely with Philippe Reines, a seasoned political aide who previously worked with Hillary Clinton. Reines is taking on the role of Trump in the debate preparation sessions.
On the other hand, Trump has been adopting a less formal approach to debate preparation, engaging in policy discussions with his close aides, advisers, and allies in between campaign events and golf outings. Notably, he has sought assistance from Tulsi Gabbard, a former Democratic presidential candidate and one of Harris' past rivals.
With both candidates gearing up for what is expected to be a high-stakes debate, the public is eager to see how they will articulate their visions for the country and respond to pressing issues facing the nation. The debate is poised to be a pivotal moment in the election cycle, offering voters a chance to evaluate the candidates' positions and leadership styles.
