Trump ‘fine-tuning theatrics’ before Harris debate

As the debate approaches, Kamala Harris is preparing for her first presidential debate against Donald Trump, who has extensive experience on the debate stage. Harris has been focusing on policy but is also working on her performance skills to compete with Trump's theatrical style. Her team has created a mock debate stage to help her practice, with advisers simulating Trump's persona to prepare her for his potential attacks. There is concern among her supporters about her previous performance in interviews, as being tentative could be detrimental against Trump. The stakes are high for Harris, as the public is more familiar with Trump, and her strategy may involve provoking him into making mistakes. However, the debate format will limit interruptions, making it challenging to rattle him as they hope. The outcome of the debate could significantly impact public perception and support for both candidates.
