Kamala’s copy-and-paste policy: Abortion, abortion, and ‘run, Spot, run’

If you watched the first presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, you likely left with a good idea of Kamala's plan for the country.

And as Trump reiterated in the debate: “She doesn’t have a plan. She copied Biden’s plan, and it’s like four sentences, like ‘run, Spot, run.'”

And this might actually be true, as her “New Way Forward” campaign included a description under the link to her website that said, “Join our campaign to re-elect Joe Biden today.”

It was discovered after Kamala Harris released the policy agenda by users on X — who spotted that the metadata had almost entirely been lifted from Joe Biden’s campaign website.

“So they literally did,” Pat Gray of “Pat Gray Unleashed” comments, adding that the ABC moderators saved her in the debate by ignoring her lack of policy, debating Trump themselves, and focusing heavily on her favorite subject: abortion.

“We’d be pulled off the air if I said what I really feel about ABC this morning,” Gray says. “They started off with the abortion stuff, of course, because that’s the be-all and end-all to what the Democrats are about in their death cult.”

When Kamala was asked about whether or not she supports full-term abortions, she refused to answer.

“Ask her where the line is,” Keith Malinak says. “You say the Democrats aren’t for full-term abortions? Then tell us where your line is, Kamala, and she didn’t answer! Where the hell was ABC News there?”

“And by the way, their fact-check that there are no states that allow that, that’s bullcrap,” he adds.

“Here’s part of the problem,” Gray says. “Trump is an exaggerator. We all know that. He exaggerates. And so for him to say that they’ll kill the baby after it’s born is a bit of an exaggeration. They won’t kill it; they will let the baby die.”

“They will allow the baby to lay there and suffer,” he adds.

Harris tries to use debate as 'newest ad' against Trump — but what her campaign removes from video tells the real story

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://www.theblaze.com/media-library/harris-tries-to-use-debate-as-newest-ad-against-trump-but-what-her-campaign-removes-from-video-tells-the-real-story.jpg?id=53619297&width=1200&height=600&coordinates=0,0,0,68 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//www.theblaze.com/media-library/harris-tries-to-use-debate-as-newest-ad-against-trump-but-what-her-campaign-removes-from-video-tells-the-real-story.jpg%3Fid%3D53619297%26width%3D1200%26height%3D600%26coordinates%3D0%2C0%2C0%2C68%22%7D" expand=1]

Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign dropped a new political ad on Wednesday: video of her debate with Donald Trump.

"Our newest ad just dropped," the campaign boasted on social media.

'She just started by saying she's going to do this, she's going to do that, she's going to do all these wonderful things. Why hasn't she done it?'

Harris campaign officials posted the debate video as their "newest ad" because they think Harris not only won the debate but that she bested her opponent and made him look bad. Giving the debate as much oxygen as possible, they think, will help Harris.

But there is a curious omission of approximately three minutes in the video the campaign posted: Trump's closing statement.

Instead of including Trump's closing statement, the video cuts it out completely and ends with Harris' closing argument, even though Trump was allowed to give his closing remarks second. It's not clear why the Harris campaign cut out Trump's remarks, but examining Trump's words gives clues as to the motivation.

While even conservative commentators believe Trump's overall debate performance was not his best, his closing statement was widely applauded.

That's because Trump asked an important question — arguably the one that will define the election — that Republicans believe should be at the center of Trump's campaign message.

"So, she just started by saying she's going to do this, she's going to do that, she's going to do all these wonderful things. Why hasn't she done it?" Trump said.

"She's been there for three and a half years. They've had three and a half years to fix the border. They've had three and a half years to create jobs and all the things we talked about. Why hasn't she done it?" the former president continued. "She should leave right now, go down to that beautiful White House, go to the Capitol, get everyone together, and do the things you want to do. But you haven't done it. And you won't do it. Because you believe in things that the American people don't believe in."

Not only did Trump emphasize that question, but he knocked Harris for her secretive policy flip-flops — before returning to that critical question.

"We can't sacrifice our country for the sake of bad vision. But I just ask one simple question: Why didn't she do it?" he reiterated.

Debate moderator David Muir opened the debate by posing a form of the same question to Harris — "When it comes to the economy, do you believe Americans are better off than they were four years ago?" — but Harris dodged it completely.

It's likely that Trump and Republicans will continue to emphasize those two questions over the final 53 days of the election. If Americans begin to answer them, Democrats likely won't like their conclusions.

A comedian’s hilarious take on the Trump/Harris debate: 'She could have said that the earth was a triangle'

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://www.theblaze.com/media-library/image.webp?id=53618445&width=1200&height=600&coordinates=0,60,0,60 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//www.theblaze.com/media-library/image.webp%3Fid%3D53618445%26width%3D1200%26height%3D600%26coordinates%3D0%2C60%2C0%2C60%22%7D" expand=1]

As a comedian, Dave Landau has the unique ability to take a situation that would make the majority of us anxious, nauseous, or hopeless and extract some humor.

That’s exactly what he managed to do following Tuesday's debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.

If you a need laugh after watching what occurred on the stage last night, this one's for you:

Before the debate even began, Dave knew it wasn’t going to go well.

When Trump and Harris “walked out, they shook hands like a divorced couple at their son's graduation,” he said.

“I figured with the Stanley Cup of wine [Kamala] probably had under that podium, she might be able to keep her composure better, but the more angry [Trump] got, the more balanced she kind of seemed. But I don't blame him for being angry because the whole debate was three on one, like Lindsey Graham and a rest area bathroom,” he told Stu Burguiere, who doubled over in laughter.

“It was the most biased thing from the get-go. She could have said that the earth was a triangle, and they wouldn't have checked it.”

“They didn't fact-check anything that [Kamala] said, and then any time Trump said something, they were like, 'Sir, sir, you've been speaking for 10 seconds, there's no way that's true; let's go back to Kamala; she was just talking about the greatest economy we've had for the last four years,”’ laughs Dave.

As for Harris’ constant sneering, harrumphing, and eye-rolling, Dave thinks the male audience was wholly unimpressed because “they’re used to that face” at home.

“It was very ‘you’re not getting any tonight,’” he jokes.

“The other part I loved was when she said ‘people leave your rallies early.’ Well, sure, [Trump] was getting shot, as opposed to when people left Biden's rallies early because he just had to take a question from Ben Franklin and then shake hands with a camera,” says Dave.

Trump & Harris debate: ‘An abject clown show farce. Period.’

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://www.theblaze.com/media-library/image.png?id=53615994&width=1200&height=600&coordinates=0,41,0,79 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//www.theblaze.com/media-library/image.png%3Fid%3D53615994%26width%3D1200%26height%3D600%26coordinates%3D0%2C41%2C0%2C79%22%7D" expand=1]

The first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris has come to a close, and Dave Rubin isn’t buying the narrative the mainstream media is trying to spin about the candidates’ performances.

“The narrative of what you are now going to see is the hyper-competent Kamala Harris is the winner, and you’re going to see a new narrative being laid out in front of us,” Rubin explains. “Trump old and angry. Kamala Harris competent, commanding of facts, happy, smiley.”

“But that is really not what happened,” he adds.

The ABC moderators, Linsey Davis and David Muir, continuously jumped in to take on Trump themselves — which is not normal for a debate.

“This was a three-on-one,” Rubin says. “If this was professional wrestling, we would have thought this was a bit unfair.”

“They fact-checked Donald Trump repeatedly, dishonestly at times,” he continues, “they pushed Kamala’s lies and did not once go after Kamala for any lies. So it was an abject clown show farce. Period.”

While the mainstream media and leftists are cheering that Kamala won the debate, Rubin disagrees.

“I think Donald Trump did a hell of a job. He really did do a hell of a job,” he says, noting that debating with a person who “lies about everything” is not easy.

Liz Wheeler of “The Liz Wheeler Show” summed up Kamala’s lies in a post on X, writing, “Kamala has lied about late term abortion, ‘very fine people’ Charlottesville, J6, ‘Bloodbath,’ crime data, border security, Project 2025, fracking.’”

“The ABC moderators are a disgrace. They’re propaganda. Pravda. They’ve sold their souls,” she concluded.

“That is just right,” Rubin comments. “Every single thing that she said, almost without exclusion, was a lie or a distortion. And she knows she can do it because the two people sitting there were in cahoots to make sure she could get away with it.”

Liberals are outraged at three words Trump uttered at the debate with Harris

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://www.theblaze.com/media-library/image.jpg?id=53612590&width=1200&height=800&coordinates=0,0,4,0 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//www.theblaze.com/media-library/image.jpg%3Fid%3D53612590%26width%3D1200%26height%3D800%26coordinates%3D0%2C0%2C4%2C0%22%7D" expand=1]

President Donald Trump appeared to make a joke about Democratic candidate Kamala Harris' past, and many liberal viewers were outraged about it.

Trump was responding to a question from the moderators about why he questioned the racial identity of Harris when he said three words that infuriated many on the left.

'What a disgusting misogynist blood clot for brains.'

"I don't care. You make a big deal out of something. I couldn't care less. Whatever she wants to be is OK with me," said Trump.

"But those were your words, so," replied moderator David Muir.

"I don't know. I mean all I can say is I read where she was not black. That she put out. And. I'll say that," Trump responded.

"And then I read that she was black. And that's OK. Either one is OK with me, that's up to her!" he added.

Many believed the three words were meant to harken back to accusations that Harris had dated an Oakland politician in order to climb the political ranks when she was younger. Harris appeared to grasp the meaning of the jab in her physical response.

"Did he just say ' she puts out' ?!?!?!?? What the actual f***," said one commenter who had "BLM" in her profile.

"Kamala not going nuclear after Trump’s 'put out' line tells you immediately she’s 10000% stronger than this ***hole," said another critic.

"Trump's terrible little 'I heard she put out' statement is exactly the kind of misogynistic crap that I watched women in Michigan politics put up with for years," read another critical missive.

"Still can't get over Trump's 'read she's black and put out' comment. What a disgusting misogynist blood clot for brains ***hole," said another detractor.

"Trump is a dumb *** b***h," said another critic after quoting the phrase.

Recent polls show Harris is a slight favorite over Trump, but many experts believe that Trump's support is underrepresented in polling and that even polling means that Trump is likely to win in November.

New study uncovers 'gravity-defying' contrast between Harris, Trump coverage by network hosting presidential debate

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://www.theblaze.com/media-library/new-study-uncovers-gravity-defying-contrast-between-harris-trump-coverage-by-network-hosting-presidential-debate.jpg?id=53609865&width=1245&height=700&coordinates=26,0,27,0 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//www.theblaze.com/media-library/new-study-uncovers-gravity-defying-contrast-between-harris-trump-coverage-by-network-hosting-presidential-debate.jpg%3Fid%3D53609865%26width%3D1245%26height%3D700%26coordinates%3D26%2C0%2C27%2C0%22%7D" expand=1]

Vice President Kamala Harris may already have an edge in Tuesday's presidential debate.

A new study conducted by the Media Research Center found that ABC's flagship primetime news show, "World News Tonight," has not been critical of Harris since she entered the presidential race in July.

'That computes to a gravity-defying 100% positive spin score for the vice president.'

Specifically, MRC analysts studied every campaign story that aired on "World News Tonight" from July 21, the day Harris entered the race, to Sept. 6. They found that every statement made about Harris and her campaign from ABC anchors, reporters, voters, and other nonpartisan sources were "clearly positive." Every. Single. One.

"That computes to a gravity-defying 100% positive spin score for the vice president," the MRC reported.

On the other hand, the network has been extremely critical of Donald Trump.

The study found that over the same time period, ABC's "World News Tonight" aired only five "clearly positive" comments about Trump, compared to 66 negative comments.

That means while 100% of the comments about Harris were positive, a whopping 93% of comments about Trump were negative.

More from the MRC:

Our measure of good press/bad press omits partisan comments, as well as 'horse race' assessments about the candidates’ poll standings and prospects. So while viewers of ABC’s World News Tonight certainly heard negative comments about Harris during these past six-and-a-half weeks, all of them were from Trump, his campaign team, or other Republicans — never from reporters or nonpartisan sources.

At the same time, while our spin score similarly excludes all Democratic soundbites about the Republican nominee, ABC’s reporters and anchors either jumped in to criticize Trump themselves, or broadcast negative comments from non-partisan sources to impart a heavily negative spin to the former President’s coverage.

But what about NBC and CBS? Analysts found that while each network's coverage of Trump was overwhelmingly negative (77% at CBS and 86% at NBC), both networks are more willing to criticize Harris.

For example, while ABC, according to the MRC, hasn't described Harris as a "liberal" — Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) believes Harris remains an ideological progressive — both NBC's "Nightly News" and CBS' "Evening News" have correctly described Harris as liberal and progressive. Each network show, moreover, has aired interviews with voters critical of Harris, something ABC's primetime newscast has not done.

Additionally, the analysis found that CBS and NBC are willing to broadcast controversies involving Harris, while ABC is not. But of course, ABC criticizes Trump and his perceived controversies.

The analysis is significant — and telling — because not only is ABC News hosting the debate between Trump and Harris, but "World News Tonight" anchor David Muir is one of the debate moderators.

The debate is scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. ET, taking place at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia.

Like the debate between Trump and President Joe Biden in June, there will be no live audience at this debate. Each candidate is also prohibited from using pre-written notes — though they can use a pen and notepad during the debate — and candidates cannot confer with advisers during commercials.

The biggest holdup regarding debate rules came from Harris, who wanted unmuted microphones. At the previous debate, each candidate's mic was muted when it was not his turn to speak.

Harris' campaign believes Harris will be "fundamentally disadvantaged" with muted microphones. It is believed that Harris sought unmuted microphones because she wants to recreate a moment from her vice presidential debate with Mike Pence in 2020, when she chastised him for interrupting her.

Currently, there is not an agreement for an additional debate, although Trump has pledged to debate Harris three times.

‘Comrade Kamala Harris’ refuses Fox News debate — will she ‘flip-flop’ on this too?

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://www.theblaze.com/media-library/image.jpg?id=53570183&width=1200&height=800&coordinates=300,0,0,0 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//www.theblaze.com/media-library/image.jpg%3Fid%3D53570183%26width%3D1200%26height%3D800%26coordinates%3D300%2C0%2C0%2C0%22%7D" expand=1]

Kamala Harris still refuses to do a live interview without the assistance of her VP pick Tim Walz, and her first debate against former President Trump is drawing closer.

And Trump does not seem worried in the slightest.

“I have reached an agreement with the Radical Left Democrats for a Debate with Comrade Kamala Harris. It will be Broadcast Live on ABC FAKE NEWS, by far the nastiest and most unfair newscaster in the business, on Tuesday, September 10th, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.

“The Rules will be the same as the last CNN Debate, which seemed to work out well for everyone except, perhaps, Crooked Joe Biden,” he continued.

Trump also confirmed that the debate will be “stand up,” and candidates will not be allowed to bring notes or “cheat sheets.”

However, according to Trump, Harris refused a Fox News debate on September 4 — but the debate will remain open “in case she changes her mind, or Flip Flops, as she has done every single one of her long held and cherished policy beliefs.”

While it was previously believed that the mics would be muted during the September 10 debate, it’s now reported that both mics will be unmuted — unlike the CNN debate Trump had with Biden.

Sara Gonzales of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered” is impressed with Trump but not so much Kamala.

“How embarrassing, how weak is this woman, that you’re running for president of the United States, the highest office of the land, and you can’t go on an interview with a friendly network, by the way, a friendly, without Tim Walz accompanying you, and you can’t do a debate unless you’re seated with notes,” Gonzales says.

Dave Landau, host of “Normal World,” is in full agreement.

“Meanwhile, Donald Trump’s doing interviews with Theo Von who’s talking about coke and hookers,” Landau says, adding, “He answers questions, though, what I do like about him, very quickly.”

“And with her, she hasn’t answered a question yet,” he continues. “Just tell me a policy. Like I know she flip-flopped on the border wall, but it’s like, tell me honestly what are you going to do. One thing. Just one thing, so I can know what your policy actually is.”

Tulsi Gabbard tells Glenn Beck that Kamala Harris will try to bait Trump at the debate, but he has a chance to 'expose' her

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://www.theblaze.com/media-library/image.jpg?id=53557760&width=1200&height=800&coordinates=0,0,0,0 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//www.theblaze.com/media-library/image.jpg%3Fid%3D53557760%26width%3D1200%26height%3D800%26coordinates%3D0%2C0%2C0%2C0%22%7D" expand=1]

Former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard told Glenn Beck, the co-founder of Blaze Media, what former President Donald Trump must do to defeat Vice President Kamala Harris in debate.

Gabbard was a guest on Beck's radio show when she made the comments Tuesday, a day after endorsing Trump, who brought her on to his team to help him get ready for the debate.

'This really will be an opportunity, for Donald Trump to expose that to the American people.'

Beck asked Gabbard to give her thoughts on the upcoming debate after she "wiped the floor" with Harris during their debate in the Democratic primary contest in 2019.

"Donald Trump is not a politician. I think that's what people really, really love about him.It wouldn't surprise you to know, Glenn, he wouldn't do debate prep like a typical politician would. But it's been great to be able to spend some time with him and his team," said Gabbard.

Gabbard went on to predict how the Democratic presidential candidate might design her attacks during the debate to paper over her lack of experience.

"Really for me if there's anything that I can help with at all, it is just the fact that I shared a stage with Kamala Harris.I know how she thinks and how she is going to try to lay some traps, try to bait Donald Trump into walking into the narrative that she is gonna try to push for the American people," she explained.

"And, quite frankly, how she's going to try to hide her record," Gabbard continued. "That to me, is the biggest thing. She says one thing, that is directly opposite to what her record shows. And this really will be an opportunity for Donald Trump to expose that to the American people."

Gabbard went on to claim that Harris was trying to change the rules of the debate in order to gain advantage.

"That points to her weakness that the American people need to see. She's demanding that the debate be seated and that she be allowed to bring in notes into the debate," Gabbard explained.

"Why does she need notes? If she knows the issues, if she knows her stand on the most important policies and the challenges the American people are facing today, why does she need notes?" she asked rhetorically.

She answered that Harris needs notes because she "needs somebody else to tell her what to say."

Gabbard served as Hawaii's representative in the U.S. House from 2013 until 2021.

Here's part of the interview with Gabbard:
