She set a tone at the very start when she walked right into his space to shake his hand and made him almost pull back into himself in response. She was in charge and never stopped being in charge.

Harris also managed what neither Joe Biden nor Hillary Clinton nor any of the 2016 Republicans managed to do which is successfully bait Donald Trump and get under his skin. Within a few minutes Trump was visibly angry and not in a way that empowered him but in a way that made him lose focus, go down rabbit holes and generally go off onto damaging tangents. Spittle anger, not righteous anger, shall we say.

    What questions did she deflect on?

      I just finished watching the debate myself, I don’t know if she dodged more than once, she certainly didn’t do as much dodging as he did. But she 100% dodged answering why the Biden administration hasn’t removed Trump-era tariffs without even a hint of addressing it. I’m not a big fan of what that entails, I think globalization in US economy might be coming to a screeching halt no matter who gets elected.
