Harris Rattles Trump in Debate Slugfest

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

45% : A New York Times/Siena poll released this week found that 28% of likely voters wanted to learn more about her, against just 9% saying the same about Trump.
42% : Trump entered the rhetorical bout with huge political advantages - deep American anxiety about a cost of living that has soared over four years, angst about undocumented immigration, and profound pessimism about the direction of the country under President Joe Biden.
37% : For Trump, the evening's final indignity may have come on Instagram, where Taylor Swift endorsed Harris.
36% : Trump and Harris both sought to energize their voters and win over undecided Americans with less than two months before Election Day.
23% : (Trump didn't really push her, nor did the moderators circle back to the issue.)
22% : Asked whether he had a plan for replacing Obamacare, Trump replied he had "concepts of a plan," which drew considerable mockery from Harris supporters on Twitter.
19% : But on issue after issue, Trump took the bait Harris put down, while cycling through some of his campaign rallies' oft-repeated grievances.
13% : Repeatedly pressed on whether he would veto a national abortion ban, Trump said he wouldn't sign one, but did not explicitly threaten a veto, and pivoted in one answer to attacking Harris on student loan forgiveness.
