As Lichtman predicts, it will be an election victory for Harris whether or not she won this debate, (and whether or not there will be another debate), even if Trump won, or was perceived to have won, both. It will only be forgotten if Trump drops the racist cats and dogs claim. If he keeps it going, it will keep the loss of the debate fresh in everyone minds. Given he has nothing else in his campaign, certainly no policy, maybe a concept of a plan on healthcare, I don't see him dropping it as a talking point. His base certainly won't. The racists in his base are loving it and the feedback loop on Truth Social will mean he will think it's a winning move. That's right, Sad. All Mr Trump has to do is say, look, I just said that thing about refugees coming over, sneaking into people's backyards and stealing their pets to eat. I didn't really mean it, it was a dumb thing to say, I'm sorry. All Mr Trump has to do is say that. We'll forgive, forget and move on. Problem solved. There's just one thing, dear. What kind of whack job would say it in the first place? DEEP STATE !!! His assertions are now being linked to bomb threats, forcing schools and hospitals into lockdown as a consequence of his lie. Additionally, he is currently claiming that there will be mass deportations of Haitians from Springfield back to Venezuela. His evident cognitive decline renders it increasingly difficult to track the targets of his discriminatory rhetoric. This is undoubtedly a troubling development. He is decidedly doubling down on this claim, indicating that it will not simply dissipate. Each time he reiterates it, he underscores his failure in the debate, revealing that even the risk to children's lives in schools and the safety of hospital patients is not too steep a price in his efforts to sway public perception (that isn't working). Sure, but he always said he was going to be the STORM, right? You have to break a few eggs to make an omelette, Sad. Besides, the American people don't care about stuff like that. Another school shooting, a few dead illegals, some krappy town nobody's ever been to. If it gives the white nationalists a cause to fight for, it can only be a good thing right? Good and bad on both sides is a false dichotomy, so 2018. It's now us versus them.
