Contributing sentiments towards policy:

81% : Trump constantly brags about his greatness.
75% : In an inspired bit at the convention, Harris' two grandnieces along with actor Kerry Washington taught the crowd in the United Center how to pronounce Kamala as "Comma-La," at the same time sticking it to Trump with grace and wit.
41% : Please note that even with microphones off, Trump and Harris can still interrupt each other.
39% : And, from the perspective of Harris and Trump, the goal of the debate is to use it to help win enough votes in the battlegrounds to get to the 270 electoral votes needed to be sworn-in as president next January.
29% : Muted microphones: Harris and Trump will have their microphones muted when it is not their turn to speak.
27% : One of the things Harris has -- that Trump does not -- is experience living in the real world without wealth.
26% : The neutral way of doing this at the debate is for Harris and Trump to address each other as Mr. President and Madame Vice President.
21% : Doing well is explaining stands on complicated policies either simply or vague enough to do no harm to the No. 1 goal of Harris and Trump in the debate.
9% : In my analysis, Trump seems easier to trigger into saying something ridiculous -- and giving himself a self-inflicted wound -- than Harris.
7% : Last February, a New York judge ordered Trump to pay $355 million in penalties in a civil fraud case against Trump and his real estate company.
6% : How will Trump pronounce "Kamala": Trump has made a point of deliberately mispronouncing the vice president's name.
