      These debates aren’t about policy anyway, they’re about optics.

      Trump will lose his shit and prove how old and weird he is. Harris will I’m speaking him when he interrupts. The libs will gush. The left will moan. Harris’s campaign will have sound bites for advertising.

      It’s not Trump/Clinton. Trump running three times now gives the Harris campaign a lot of info on what to expect out of him. And Harris can shut Trump down without looking elitist.

      This is a win-win for Harris. She can handle Trump in either scenario. She’s going to exploit his weaknesses either way. By making the hot mic into an issue, it puts 34’s aides on edge leading into a debate where their underdog is very bad at playing the part of underdog. Weird DonOLD will be sweating bullets and might even run offstage in a cowardly huff!
