Tonight in the USA (9:00 p.m.) the confrontation organized by the ABC media network takes place, between the two aspirants for the White House, between the current Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris and the former Republican President, Donald Trump.
With polls showing a close race, the challenge could be decisive before November 5. Both candidates will try to hit each other on the weak points and on the most sensitive issues of the electorate.
"The important thing is to take courage, to bring people closer, so that you can change your life and evoke positive events with your voice" , is the motto of Rohini Kosoglu, Kamala Harris' adviser, repeated by the team preparing the Democratic vice president .
According to analysts, Harris is expected to use empathy to win as many votes as possible.
On the other hand, Trump is trying to hit Harris on her support team, as well as veteran Philippe Reines, emphasizing that "he is a lightweight, in 2016 he acted as Hillary Clinton's partner and was a failure." He even accuses him of being a "toy of Lavrov, Putin's bulldog, under the illusion that he would make peace with the Russians".
Of the criticism, Karen Dunn, head of Harris' squad for the decider, says:
"Our strategy is not to stick with Trump, as he would benefit, but to define and present Kamala as a person in front of the voters."
Young staff on hand at all times to advise Harris. With names like Lorraine Voles, Harris's White House chief of staff, and Sheila Nix, her campaign manager, patiently explaining the technique to the 'reclusive' vice president in Pittsburgh, with political strategists such as David Plouffe and to her brother-in-law Tony West.
Trump, on the other hand, is in his seventh presidential debate, while Harris is making her debut.
Trump has a natural television talent for "setting fire" to his base and with sexist attitudes and jokes, to put women interlocutors in difficulty.
During her years as a prosecutor in California, Harris has honed her sarcastic wit, strong-willed tone, aggressive sarcasm and charisma in representing the law, noted various media and political expert analyses.
Two opposing styles and both effective, to prevail Harris has a delicate task, not to succumb to Trump's bullying and not appear hostile to the undecided, especially white males, the historical base of Trumpism.
Therefore, Dunn and Kosuglu will rely on social media political marketing, not primary clashes, as in the dark interview with CNN a few days ago.
And the analysts specify "not to expect an annoying Harris, who accurately cites data on inflation and employment, grabs GDP figures and diplomacy on the wars in Ukraine and Gaza, but as a woman, daughter of immigrants, magistrate, senator , vice-president, wife, head of the family and mother of the children brought to life with her husband Doug".
The vast majority of Americans who will vote on November 5 made their choice some time ago, few will change their minds now. Harris and Trump must consolidate the coalition, perhaps by "warming up" a minimum number of independents, undecideds or abstainers in 2020, to flip swing states.
Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have never met before, with the vice president's staff insisting to ABC that the microphones be left open during speeches, hoping that an insult or a crude joke from the former president would put them on edge. theirs, especially among suburban women, concerned about the ban on abortion.
Team Trump didn't take the bait, the mics will remain muted. Semiologist McLuhan once preached that the medium was the message, but the maximum is no longer working, now "You are the Message" is the karma of social networks and the vice president is risking her future and that of the Democrats in this 'gamble'.
When and where is the debate, the rules and how long?
The debate starts at 21:00 US time, Tuesday September 10 (Wednesday, 03:00 European time). It takes place live on the US ABC network from the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The debate will last 90 minutes with two commercial breaks and there will be no audience in the hall.
The BBC will have a team of reporters in Philadelphia and Washington providing analysis, fact-checking and feedback as part of its live coverage.
What the polls say about the Trump-Harris challenge
According to the poll published on September 8 and conducted by the New York Times and Siena College, Trump's advantage nationally is only one percentage point: 48% to Harris' 47%. This difference is within the permissible margin of error of three percentage points. Basically, both candidates in the November 5 election can aspire to victory.
For Democrats, this is an important recovery, given that until a few weeks ago, Biden was considered lost. Now that there are concrete chances for Harris, this result sounds like half a victory. What matters as always in American elections are the so-called "key states", analyzed in another poll conducted by CBS /YouGov.
In three states considered to be in the balance, Harris would enjoy an edge, albeit a narrow one, in Michigan (50%-49%) and Wisconsin (51%-49). However, a situation of parity was found in Pennsylvania. /Taken from "La Repubblica"
