Donald Trump-Kamala Harris debate on ABC with David Muir and Linsey Davis was like "4chan come to life" with moderator flops and racist lies.
“In the end, we all knew what we knew before, that ABC’s goal tonight was to help Kamala Harris, and ABC did help Kamala Harris,” Laura Ingraham said on Fox News. That’s one way of putting it. Van Jones on CNN found another.
“She whupped him,” Jone said. “She just whupped him. … Kamala Harris did something great for every parent in America. She put the bully in his place.”
A certain super gigantic galactic pop star seemed to agree. Moments after the debate, Taylor Swift endorsed Harris, signing her Instagram post “Childless Cat Lady,” a reference to a comment made by Trump’s running mate, JD Vance.
For more details on the 4chan nature, head over to the Daily Beast for pieces like these:
ABC took a big hit last night," Trump told Fox News. “I mean, to be honest, they are a news organization, they have to be licensed to do it. They ought to take away their license for the way they did that.”
