Donald Trump’s debate against Kamala Harris was widely panned in the press as a crushing loss — Harris successfully “baited” Trump and “humiliated” him, according to headlines; his performance was a “meltdown” and showed he is “losing his war with reality”. That performance, however, appears to have impressed voters in swing states.
In Arizona, the former President was behind Harris by five points in a New York Times/Siena August poll, then surged five points ahead of her as of today. Similarly, in Georgia and in North Carolina, Trump gained ground, calling the media narrative that he lost the debate into question. Does he still think the pollsters are “faking it”?
