Regardless of how well Harris does or how poorly Trump does, Trump and Maga will use the debate for publicity for Trump. We should all know by now that Trump will lie, and Maga will lie about Harris.

Even if she bests him in the debate, Trump will say something(s) outrageous that will be reported nonstop for days. Any thing Harris says will not be reported and will soon be forgotten by the news.

There is no benefit for Harris if she debates Trump.

Fox and abc are not equivalent. Fox and msnbc are. FlyingPiggy Aug 2024 #10

abc likely would get a bigger audience than a cable network nt msongs Aug 2024 #11

Maybe. But a lot of people have to pay for basic stations too. It's not that readily available. FlyingPiggy Aug 2024 #12
