Vice President Kamala Harris is calling for a second debate.
Jen O’Malley, the Harris campaign’s chairwoman, said in a statement following Tuesday’s debate, “Tonight, Vice President Harris commanded the stage on every single issue that matters to the American people. Americans saw exactly what kind of President Kamala Harris will be: one who offers a New Way Forward for the country, who will be a president for all Americans, and who will turn the page once and for all on the darkness and division of Donald Trump.”
O’Malley called Trump “incoherent,” “angry,” and “rattled.”
“The American people got to see the choice they will face this fall at the ballot box: between moving forward with Kamala Harris, or going backwards with Trump,” the statement added. “That’s what they saw tonight and what they should see at a second debate in October. Vice President Harris is ready for a second debate. Is Donald Trump?”
Trump’s campaign managers Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles also released a statement following the debate, calling the former president’s performance “masterful.”
“President Trump delivered a masterful debate performance tonight, prosecuting Kamala Harris’ abysmal record of failure that has hurt Americans for the last 4 years,” the statement read. “We saw President Trump lay out his bold vision of America and how he would continue to build upon the successes of his first term by supercharging the economy, securing the border, and stopping crime from ravaging communities across the country.”
LaCivita and Wiles called Harris’ vision for the United States a “dark reminder of the oppressive, big government policies of Joe Biden that she wants to continue.”
“High inflation, a porous border that allows criminals and terrorists to flood across, and being soft on crime— that is what Kamala represents,” they wrote.
“The choice could not be more clear— President Trump was the clear winner tonight, and he will win for America when he returns to the White House.”
