ABC’s Bruce: Trump Has a Lot of Experience in Presidential Debates While ‘A Lot of New Territory’ for Harris

‘Actually the first time she will come face-to-face with Trump’

EXCERPT:

BRUCE: “This is the first time she's faced off with Trump, the first time she's done a presidential debate, actually the first time she will come face-to-face with Trump. They have never met in part, of course, because Donald Trump did not participate in the peaceful transfer of power, of course, during the last election. So this is a lot of new territory for her. The goal that the campaign has, of course, is for her to continue to define herself, do that before Trump can do that for her, and then to pivot and go on the attack. They are very concerned about that Trump amnesia, as they describe it, that voters have sort of forgotten some of the chaos of the Trump years. She wants to highlight what she believes is his failed record, and then attack. And look, Kamala Harris is someone who knows how to land a punch, and she punches hard. But she has to pick those moments. She's also someone who we know rehearses those attack lines and workshops those attack lines. But there's a balance here."
