After weeks of frantically trying to get them changed so they can get more positive for her, the Harris campaign eventually agreed to the discussion rules this week. On this issue, things have n’t been going very well for her. As we’ve previously reported, Kamala’s debate prep has n’t been going great, and things really went sideways for her when the campaign was forced to accept the debate rules.  ,

You are well aware that the main concern was whether there would be exist microphones throughout the discussion. The Harris campaign decided they wanted live microphones so Kamala could have another” I’m speaking” moment and play the weak woman victim card after telling Trump they would n’t renegotiate the terms of the discussions that had already been agreed upon with the Biden campaign.
Apparently the campaign’s entire debate strategy hinged on there being live microphones, and now that there wo n’t be ( assuming ABC News does n’t change the rules mid-debate ), the Harris campaign is scrambling to change their entire debate strategy.
According to Politico, Kamala Harris planned to criticize Donald Trump, fact-check, and instantly question him while he was speaking during their conversation the following week. Campaign authorities said Harris advisers are scrambling to update their playbook then that rules have been finalized to quiet candidates when their opponents speak.
In the same way that she confronted some of Trump’s Supreme Court nominees and Cabinet members during Senate hearings, Harris and her crew, who were housed in Pittsburgh for a multi-day conversation camp, demanded unmuted microphones so that the vice president may move on her judicial background.
Instead, four Harris plan officials argued that she will be “handcuffed” by the rules, which were negotiated by President Joe Biden’s staff earlier this summer.
” Trump’s worst instances in the conversations are when he gets upset and snaps”, said an aide to Harris in her 2020 presidential plan, granted secrecy to converse freely. ” And they have neutered that”.

Some Democrats are discreetly ignoring the Harris party’s issues as usual political moving and managing expectations ahead of Tuesday’s Philadelphia discussion, according to Politico. However, others point out that the law change and her limited exposure to countrywide general election debates and interviews since becoming the party’s nomination was, however, affect her conversation performance.

” She could get thrown off by]the muted mics ], so putting]their frustration ] about the mics out there, they’re preparing for that possibility”, one national Democratic strategist told Politico. Or they have a set piece ready to go where Harris could say,” For those who ca n’t hear it, Donald Trump is trying to yell over me,” Harris said. How many of you have had conversations with other people?
According to a person with knowledge of the Harris campaign’s philosophy, some of her assistants are frustrated that the evil president will inherit the conversation rules that were agreed to when Biden was the candidate. They do so because they believe she is a better thinker than Biden, whose stage scandal in June finally resulted in his withdrawal from the competition.
” It was a bad set of rules for someone who needed to be protected, who always should’ve been on the conversation phase”, the national Democratic strategist added. ” And now they’re stuck with it”.

The funny thing about this is that at first, the Harris campaign resisted renegotiating the terms of the debate, forcing Trump to adhere to the terms that were agreed with the Biden campaign because they did n’t want to be enticed into a Fox News debate.
Physically, I’m still waiting for her to back out of the conversation.
