This is my post about the Presidential Debate last month between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, refitted a little for tonight’s debate with JD Vance and Tim Walz.
Watch CBS closely, and let us hope they have regained their journalistic chops for the good of the republic. But I am not optimistic.
Tonight’s debate is not just a political spectacle—it’s a profound test of values for many Americans. This is a critical moment, where real information must be shared, and I hope the press delivers.
It’s not about specific candidates like Walz or Vance, or gender or race. What matters are the real issues: inflation, immigration, the economy, Israel, wars, security, taxes, and debt.
The focus must shift from the candidates’ personal ambitions to what the people genuinely need. Honesty and candor are essential.
Pay close attention not only to what is asked but also to what isn’t. Watch how candidates respond—do they answer directly, dodge the question, or fill the air with empty words?
The press, especially ABC, needs to step up, cutting through the noise and word games. With only one debate and two months to go, fairness and honesty are crucial. Kamala Harris hasn’t faced tough questions, and it’s time she does. Her record on policies like the Afghan withdrawal, her role as border czar, and the impact of “Bidenomics” should be examined.
And yes, hold Trump accountable too. But, as independent reports show, ABC has been nearly 100% favorable toward Harris and 93% negative on Trump. The bias is clear. Will this debate be any different
