Trump can win debate. He just has to focus on Harris' extreme flip-flops - and look sane.

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

66% : My thought (and one echoed by Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., over the weekend) is that Harris is as progressive as ever, but that she's trying to reinvent herself as a centrist to appear as a more palatable candidate to voters in the middle.
56% : By comparison, Trump came out looking victorious.
55% : Trump made a smart move in bringing on former Hawaii Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard to advise him for the debate.
41% : Rather than dwell on past grievances, Trump would be wise to talk about what he plans to do to improve the economy and fight the chaos at the border.
40% : She doesn't even hold the same views on banning plastic straws anymore. ABC News' debate moderators - and Trump - need to turn up the heat and demand that she explain what she actually believes to voters.
40% : On those issues, Trump leads Harris by double digits, according to the latest New York Times/Siena College poll.
36% : More than twice as many of those surveyed (53%) said Trump represents "major change," compared with 25% for Harris.
33% : Trump needs to embrace the role of change agent As much as Harris wants to distance herself from the Biden administration, the fact remains she's a central part of it.
25% : Trump could use both those weaknesses to his advantage - if he doesn't let his own faults get in the way.
23% : It's clear she hopes the attention will be on Trump acting the bully or saying inappropriate things - as he's prone to do.
