Black Twitter Reacts to Unpredictable 2024 Presidential Debate Between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump

The first debate between presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump for the upcoming 2024 election was nothing short of chaotic and unpredictable. The hour and a half-long event was filled with viral moments that had Black Twitter buzzing with commentary.

Vice President Harris received praise for her performance, with many commending her for confronting Trump on his record and maintaining her composure throughout the debate. Despite it being her first presidential debate compared to Trump’s seventh, Harris displayed the poise of an experienced prosecutor, according to users on social media.

CNN anchor Abby D. Phillip noted that Harris seemed to bait Trump with comments, causing him to lose his composure and wander rhetorically around the room. Users also pointed out Harris’ varied facial expressions, ranging from incredulousness to ridicule, as she responded to Trump’s statements.

On the other hand, Trump was criticized for making false statements that were fact-checked in real time by moderators. His vague response to a question about healthcare plans, where he mentioned having “concepts of a plan,” was memed endlessly by users who mocked his lack of specifics.

One particularly absurd moment came when Trump claimed Harris wanted to perform transgender operations on illegal aliens in prison, a statement that was widely ridiculed. Comedians and journalists alike compared Trump’s performance to a video game character and questioned his cognitive abilities.

Overall, the debate highlighted the stark contrast between the two candidates, with many expressing disappointment that a competent and qualified Black woman like Harris had to compete against an incompetent and unhinged opponent like Trump. The event left viewers eagerly anticipating the next showdown between the candidates.
