To the editor: Maybe some Republicans are waking to the fact that Donald Trump doesn’t have the talents to be president. He isn’t a frontrunner or perhaps a respectable supervisor. So typically he appears to suppose his job is to entertain, so he babbles nonsense. (“Harris, Trump trade barbs in heated, high-stakes debate,” Sept. 10)
It could be good for him that he’s so assured of his expertise, however the remainder of us shouldn’t be so deluded. His judgment and sanity are main issues. He creates targets for his opponents. He doesn’t have the bottom expertise to organize for a debate.
Generally I really feel sorry for the man, however not that a lot.
MAGA Republicans have a tough street forward of them. How do they clarify loss after loss below Trump? The GOP had a alternative, and a unique Republican, not Trump, might win this election. However MAGA is an excessive amount of like a cult, and the chief they thought that they had can not really lead.
The large takeaway from the talk is that Vice President Kamala Harris has actual expertise. If she wins the election, she could outshine President Biden.

To the editor: This was not a debate. It was a travesty for Trump.
Harris and her opponent did certainly provide some very completely different approaches to governing this nice nation. Trump is now completely etched in hundreds of thousands of viewers’ minds as an offended, ignorant and a really mentally sick creature.
She was — and is — able to roll. Harris was elegant, eloquent, away from thought, truthful in responses and even seemingly comfy with the problem.
I see just one alternative on this election. Wild-eyed, inarticulate and accusative pathological liar aren’t {qualifications} for the job of president of the USA.
Brava Kamala Harris — or somewhat, Madam President to be, I hope. Additionally, bravo to the moderators.

To the editor: Sadly, the largest loser of the talk was the media.
Trump was fact-checked a number of instances; Harris wasn’t fact-checked as soon as, regardless that she made false statements.
As well as, if Trump didn’t instantly reply a query, there have been follow-ups. This was not the case with Harris.
An honest efficiency by Harris was overshadowed by the unfairness of the moderators. Biased media are dividing our nation.

To the editor: She did it. Harris took on Trump and gained the presidential debate. She was genuine, sensible and responsive. Trump, alternatively, rambled on, lied and was dismissive.
For many who wished to know extra about Harris, I consider they bought the solutions they have been in search of. As for Trump’s supporters, he gave them what they wanted to listen to to stay on his aspect.
Based mostly on what all of us noticed on the talk stage, I’m guessing Harris will decide up between three and 5 share factors in nationwide polls later this week. And Trump? He gained’t achieve or lose any factors, which suggests he will probably be caught whereas Harris will probably be surging.
If that evaluation is true, then I’m afraid to suppose what Trump will do between now and November.
