The ABC News debate began when the Democratic vice president unexpectedly approached the Republican former president to shake his hand, before they took to their lecterns in the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia
Former US President and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks to members of the press in the spin room following a presidential debate with US Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on September 10, 2024.
Harris, 59, responded by looking on in amusement, then clearly got under his skin, declaring that she represents a fresh start after the"mess" of the Trump presidency -- and saying:"We're not going back." One of their most jarring exchanges was on Trump's unprecedented refusal to accept losing to Biden in the 2020 election, before trying to overturn the result.
Harris said he was telling a"bunch of lies" and called his policies"insulting to the women of America."The last presidential debate in June doomed Biden's reelection campaign, after he delivered a catastrophic performance against Trump. Her five days of intensive preparation appeared to pay off against Trump, perhaps the most brutal public speaker in American politics.He has been convicted of falsifying business records to cover up an affair with an adult film star, found liable for sexual abuse, and faces trial on charges of trying to overturn the 2020 election.
