All I had to do was watch the first 10 to 15 minutes of the debate to know exactly what was happening. Unfortunately, in my own life I have seen the back of a police car and the inside of a police station more times than I can count. I know exactly how a good detective or a good prosecuting attorney can get a perpetrator to show their true colors. It's called the good cop/bad cop routine. That is exactly what Vice President Harris did.

The first few minutes seemed to put Trump at ease, making him even more confident and smug. At the 5 to 10 minute mark you can watch the good cop transition to the bad cop, and the whole routine begins. Once she had him confused at his own strategy, she led him around by the scruff of his neck. Like many perpetrators before, his fear took over and his broken instincts led him to play the only card he knows, that of a devious and self-destructive man.

She was absolutely brilliant.

RE crowd size, I believe Harris took the lead from Obama on this. In fact, I see a lot of Barack in her on-stage stuff now. All for the good, IMO.

Thank you again Professor. The voice of reason and knowledge so easy to understand. I cannot tell you how appreciative I am to be pulled out of the chaos and lies of the Demented Don!

Seeing that handshake between donnie and Harris on the 11th appalled me. It was so obviously aggressive on his part.

Trying to make up for the debate. I swear if she hadn't gone over to him, he would have stayed at his podium. He didn't look too overjoyed to see her in his corner.

92 to 8? Even the very few polls which suggested that trump didn't do too badly, there were no numbers like that. Has there ever been poll results like that? Maybe something like "Do you think there is a problem at our Southern border?"
