Kamala Harris and Donald Trump Set for High-Stakes Debate in Philadelphia

Vice President Kamala Harris, a former prosecutor, will face off against former President Donald Trump, who has been convicted of 34 counts related to falsifying business records, in a debate on Tuesday in Philadelphia. This event highlights major contrasts between the two candidates, including policies regarding the Southern Border, Social/identity issues, military and much more.

Harris, the Democratic nominee, has extensive experience in law enforcement, serving as a trial lawyer, district attorney, and attorney general in California. Trump, who is running for the Republican nomination, has a history of legal challenges but remains a dominant figure within his party, often rallying his base by framing his legal troubles as politically motivated.

The debate will be held without a live audience and moderated by ABC News anchors David Muir and Linsey Davis. Trump is an experienced debater, having participated in seven national general election debates. Harris is expected to use her prosecutorial experience to challenge Trump on his policies, conduct, and the events following the 2020 election. However, she is unlikely to focus directly on Trump's legal convictions, leaving that to the courts.

While Harris enters the debate with momentum from recent fundraising successes and positive polling, she may face scrutiny on her positions regarding issues like healthcare, fracking, and economic policy. Both candidates are expected to engage in sharp exchanges, but the long-term impact of the debate on the race remains uncertain.
