Harris says Trump 'denigrated' office of the presidency with debate performance

Source: MSN

Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) said President Trump "denigrated" the office of the presidency on Tuesday with his performance during a combative and often personal first debate with former Vice President Joe Biden.

"I think that the American people deserve to have an ability to compare and contrast the candidates, and I think tonight provided a very clear contrast," Harris said on CBS after the debate.

"On the one hand, you have Joe Biden who looked into the camera, who spoke to the American people continuously, who understood who was important on that stage, which is American families," Harris said of her running mate.

"And then you have Donald Trump, who really I think really denigrated the office of the President of the United States as much as he has done over the course of the last four years," she added.

as Nicolle Wallace said earlier. He was a belligerent fool desperate to cling onto power to avoid prosecution.

Wallace was never in control, and Trump behaved worse than a two year old. Future debate moderators need a kill switch on Trump’s mic to keep him from constantly talking over Biden and the moderator.
