'Disaster': Ex-GOP strategist believes Trump in for 'very bad night' if he debates Harris
A former GOP strategist believes Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is approaching an upcoming debate with Kamala Harris in such a way that it'll be a "disaster for him."Stuart Stevens told CNN panelists Monday night on "NewsNight" that not only is Trump's head in the wrong place — "his ca...
His strategy will be
-
Throw word salad at every question
-
declare his policies are the best that anyone has ever seen in the history.
-
call “Camila” a Marxist, communist, socialist, bird brain, nasty woman, and a total disaster. All these words mean the same to him and his base.
-
regardless how bad he does, declare himself a winner at the debate. Whine and fundraise for the rest of the campaign.
111Classic pigeon playing chess strategy.
56The hilarious part is Kamala will do her best to refute those claims. The best strategy is to say "no you", but she won't do that and will fall into his traps. If she calls him a rapist and a felon and a loser with small crowd sizes to his face, than that's a different story.
-50Yeah, cause y'all have been doing just a bang up job calling her moves ahead of time, huh.

The same could be said of Trump debating a seasoned Junior High Debate Club member.
52Like a well done steak seasoned with ketchup?
12Smeared across a wall in rage.

He's going to use the same tactic and drown his opponent with do many lies and fake bullshit that they'll spend most of the time trying to prove him wrong instead of taking about their platform.
43The gish gallop is remarkably effective- if you’re audience is a bunch of unserious, uncritical imbeciles.
Unfortunately, that’s basically the republican base;
58It's really pathetic how many of them lack any critical thinking skills. They're so enfranchised by the whole thing that they would rather lose friends and family over admitting a pedophile isn't fit to lead.
18Unfortunately, that’s basically
the republican baseyour average American.6
Yeah, but Harris has seen that dumb tired move, and so far she’s been a judo master that has been using his own attacks against him.
There is a reason she wants the mics off for the debate.
14She wants them hot the whole time. T****s staffers want them off.
“We have told ABC and other networks seeking to host a possible October debate that we believe both candidates’ mics should be live throughout the full broadcast,” Brian Fallon, the Harris campaign’s senior adviser for communications, tells POLITICO. “Our understanding is that Trump’s handlers prefer the muted microphone because they don’t think their candidate can act presidential for 90 minutes on his own. We suspect Trump’s team has not even told their boss about this dispute because it would be too embarrassing to admit they don’t think he can handle himself against Vice President Harris without the benefit of a mute button.”
38Harris wants the mics on. She wants him to interrupt her with gibberish so she can shut him down with a firm “I’m talking!” and so she can call him out for his behavior. She’s banking on him making an ass of himself while she keeps her cool.

I heard he’s too much of a pussy to leave his mic on. Everybody’s saying it.
27He’s too much of a pussy to debate. He’ll back out.
11Exactly, no way this is happening.

I'd love for her to hit even harder.
"Trump wants out of the debate. I'd call him a pussy, but those things can take a pounding. Don't know about the rest of you girls, but unlike Trump, my genitals don't wilt at the slightest criticism."

This is just working to lower expectations so a bad performance can still be called a win.
20I sure hope so.
20Trump has frankly gotten embarrassed at every debate he's done, but the media handicaps him so hard that the narrative ends up being about everything his opponent does. So of course he's going to do the debate. He's going to say bat shit crazy things, he's going to lie, he's going to be cringe as fuck and he'll probably say a bunch of racist and sexist things.
And the next day all the media will talk about is the time Harris sneezed or slightly mispronounced some word or some shit.
17Edit: wording, added another quote
It seems to just be a never Trump republican, not much is included in article:
Stuart Stevens told CNN panelists Monday night on "NewsNight" that not only is Trump's head in the wrong place — "his campaign knows it."
Trump's endless stream of attacks on Harris include calling her "dumb" and a “socialist lunatic."
Stevens said Trump has a "problem with women" — and a "real problem with Black women in power."
The former strategist said the debate will likely not come down to policy, but vibes from the two.
13Hopefully not as bad as election night.
11She'll vaporize him
8we can only hope. it's gonna be a fun night
7I'm expecting him to do hilariously poorly. Man can't even maintain his train of thought when saying a single sentence.

This coward is gonna back out. We all know it.
6New headline: Former president will be a train wreck in September. Order popcorn now.
5Shut up then
4oh yeah, he should totally puss out as no one will make a big deal of that im sure.
2Don't give me home, headline.
1Ok, no home for you.
5Ah, the new American dream!

Lol ok.
