    They get two minutes of rebuttal, and two minutes to address the rebuttal. I would bet the phrase “Well that’s just not true.” is uttered more than once. Hopefully, Harris comes armed with facts, and Trump just does his Trumpy ramble and sounds like a douche. My guess he goes full firehose with the bullshit and hopes that she comes off as shrill trying to correct every lie.

      I think it’s important for Harris to be seen calling out his bullshit… but the maga camp is so insulated from the truth that they’ll probably just discard her corrections as “alternative facts” - it’s nice to have the neutral party call out the bullshit.

      You’ve heard of the Gish Gallop, but what about the Trump Trots? Total diarrhea of the mouth…

      You’re factually incorrect.

      Either you know you’re wrong and you’re lying or you’re ignorant of facts that you should be well aware of as a former president and one running for president.

      Which is it?

        She needs to get to the zing quicker. Also, don’t ask an open ended question, because he’ll use the opening to fill time with additional bullshit.

        “That is false. Either you are ignorant or you are lying. I am not sure if you even know the difference anymore, but either way you are unfit for office.”

      This will be a repeat of the Clinton debate.

      He’s going to just say stupid shit and try to overpower her for the full time. She’ll call him out on the b******* and deliver a sane and reasonable debate.

      The day after both sides will claim they won.

      The only thing I’m truly looking forward to is she’s snarkier and more quick-witted she’ll probably get enough jabs in there to really piss him off.
