Plus, I live with the belief that people are idiots. Individuals can be quite intelligent, but put them in groups and they immediately become less intelligent. The bigger the group, the dumber they get.

That's because fitting in socially is an existential priority for humans. And we're not wired to be aware of that motivation to our beliefs.

"voters are unsure they know enough about where Kamala Harris stands"
Yeah, how about that.

Has cnn published the debate highlights or will they wait until after the debate?

Trump needs to stick to the issues and make his case on the border, energy and the economy. Let her talk. In fact, encourage her to talk and explain what her policies are.
The only problem it's going to be three against one during the debate.

Yeah, how about that.

Does it matter where she stands if she is unable to deliver on any of it?

We have had our share of embarrassing presidential behavior over the last 50 years.
But Ms. Harris could take us places we haven't yet imagined.
On the other hand, she could be wonderful. It's hard to say while she is hiding.

Well, for one thing, Kap was hardly unknown. He was a starting QB in the Super Bowl. For another thing, a Donald Trump supporter should not be casting stones about a candidate’s sexual escapades.

Imagine if it were Harris who had 5 kids from 3 different partners. Or twice as many divorces as the first 44 presidents combined.

Beyond that, the guy sued a widow to get her to move out of her home so he could build a casino. He was one of the filthiest and most obnoxious guests on Howard Stern. He is the very epitome of sleaze.
And yet the Democrats keep putting up candidates that are even worse. It really is astounding.

I've come to the conclusion that a fair number of his supporters actually like that about him, which is quite a sad reflection of where we are.

Kamala-lama-ding-dong has been holed up for a week, doing some serious debate prep. She knows the importance of this debate for her. If she performs poorly, wonder what the numbers shift will look like?

Yeah much more risk for her in this debate. My predictions have been bad lately but overall there is a big shift (probably due to media coverage) of the awkward and cold approach of Trump/Vance and the authentic, warm, hopeful approach of Harris... like a mini Obama feeling from 2008 in terms of excitement and hope from her crowd. Hard to see her losing, which is something I really didn't think would happen a few months ago.

Will she debate again? Wasn't the original agreement that there be three debates? Well, depending on how you look at it, there has been one, or zero debates so far.
