Donald Trump faltered against Kamala Harris in a head-to-head debate in Philadelphia, delivering rambling responses on immigration, abortion, and the economy. Trump amplified a debunked conspiracy theory that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were "eating the dogs" and "cats" of local residents. Harris used the opportunity to target Trump’s legacy, his role in the Capitol riot, and his controversial comments on race. Harris also presented her stance on abortion, emphasizing the immorality of bans without exceptions for rape or incest. Harris revealed that she owns a firearm, positioning herself as someone who supports the Second Amendment while advocating for "common sense legislation."
