High Stakes for Kamala Harris

The debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris is seen as a critical moment for Harris, who has not faced the public on such a platform since becoming the nominee. Expectations are high, especially given that most Americans have already observed Trump's debating style, while Harris has only conducted one sit-down interview during her campaign. There is concern that the image of her as a skilled orator may not match the reality, especially since her past debate performances were criticized. Thus, Harris has significant pressure on her to deliver a strong performance to maintain momentum in the lead-up to the election.
