The burden on Ms. Harris's shoulders before the direct confrontation with Mr. Trump on television

TPO - US presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are preparing to take the stage to participate in a live televised debate on the evening of September 10 (US time) in Philadelphia, where they will have to make arguments to convince American voters before the election in November.

The 9 p.m. ET event will provide the nation with the most detailed look yet at a campaign that has changed dramatically since the last debate in June, when President Joe Biden withdrew from the race after a disastrous performance; Trump survived an assassination attempt; and both sides have chosen running mates. Opponents of the Israel-Hamas conflict are in Philadelphia to protest against arms supplies to Israel and the rule of law. Trump arrived in Philadelphia with an entourage that included family members, campaign staff and advisers. He was joined on the plane by far-right activist Laura Loomer, a controversial figure who has become one of his most loyal supporters on social media. Loomer, 31, is known for her anti-Muslim and anti-immigration rhetoric. She has also spread racist conspiracy theories, claiming that Harris is not black. North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum said ABC had a responsibility to ask Harris tough questions during the debate, given that she has given very few interviews. Otherwise, “I think America would be outraged,” he said. Harris is no unknown, but she has never been president like Trump. She is seen as the face of a Biden administration with notable legislative accomplishments but an economy that has suffered from persistent inflation. Abortion rights are likely to be a key issue in the debate. Democrats want to highlight Trump’s role in the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, especially after President Biden missed an opportunity to criticize Trump on the issue during their only debate in June.
