Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris and Republican candidate Donald Trump began their heated debate on Tuesday, September 10th. In the weeks leading up to this highly anticipated event, both candidates aggressively campaigned in critical states across the country, preparing for this year’s election.
Below are the key moments of the debate between Harris and Trump.
At the beginning of the presidential debate, Harris and Trump approached the stage and looked at each other. After a brief moment, the vice president approached the former host of «The Apprentice» and introduced herself, shaking his hand. They then took their individual podiums.
Not even 15 minutes into the debate, Trump called Harris a «Marxist», - discussing her and President Joe Biden’s policies. The Republican even joked that he would «give her a MAGA hat», - referring to his 2016 campaign slogan «Make America Great Again».
After Harris criticized Trump for his Supreme Court justice appointments, the Republican responded to the moderator, clarifying that he would not advocate for a national ban on abortions. When the moderators pointed out that J.D. Vance said they were for a veto, Trump rejected this and admitted that he had not discussed this with his running mate.
Trump claimed that some immigrants «eat dogs» and cats. Although moderator David Muir refuted Trump’s response, the Republican insisted on his point of view, stating that some immigrants do indeed eat animals.
When David asked him if he «regretted» the January 6, 2021 uprising at the US Capitol, Trump replied that he «had nothing to do with» the violence.
At one point during their heated conversation, Harris used Trump’s former reality show slogan — «you're fired», - joking that he was «fired by 84 million people». She was referring to Trump’s defeat in the 2020 presidential election.
Discussing Harris’s rise to the presidential ticket and Biden’s decision to step down from the election, Trump called the president «weak» and «pathetic». The Republican candidate also claimed that the president «hates» Harris and implied that he did not want her to become the candidate, replacing him as the Democratic candidate.
After Trump listed his complaints about the economy and Biden’s policies, Harris remarked, «You're not fighting against Joe Biden; you’re fighting against me»
