Harris' demand is a break from the Biden campaign, and it indicates the VP thinks Trump's outbursts would end up benefiting her.
  • Kamala Harris’ campaign is demanding that microphones stay unmuted at the next debate.
  • It’s a break from Joe Biden, who insisted on microphone muting at the June 27 debate.
  • It indicates the vice president thinks outbursts from Trump would end up benefiting her.

    Her campaign team was there to know what Trump was saying when the mic was off during the last debate with Biden. I think they likely have some great insider information on top of the basic strategy. I think they know from experience, not just theory, that he just isn’t in control of himself enough to go that long without embarrassing/racist/misogynistic/whatever outbursts.

      I really hope this is true because when I first heard of this “dilemma” I was kinda mad. My thought was we just argued FOR this and now we want out? Wtf do we have to gain from letting Mr.Shitforspeech run his mouth indefinitely?
