Kamala’s Debate Strategy Exposed: Will Her Downfall Be the ‘Muted Mic’?

The tension for the upcoming debate rises.

Kamala Harris and her tried but failed to ditch the muted mic setup for the debate.

Turns out, President Donald Trump’s campaign didn’t budge on her request.

Whats the real reason behind Harris’s obsession with unmuted mics?

Does she want another “I’m speaking” moment?

Or does she want to constantly interrupt President Trump when he’s firing away with his mountain-sized pile of red pills.

Her goal was to come off as a “tough prosecutor” persona.

But, with the mics muted, though, she’s stuck.

Reminder, the debate is tomorrow.

So the real question is: Do you have popcorn in your pantry? Because this debate promises to be as entertaining and as brutal as a UFC match.

You will not want to miss it!

RedState reports:

Did sheer hubris leave Kamala Harris in the position of having to change her entire debate strategy? That’s the story following ABC News’ decision to not acquiesce to her campaign’s attempt to change the rules.

As RedState reported, a multi-week effort by the vice president and her handlers to get rid of the previously negotiated muted mic setup failed last Wednesday. No doubt the Harris campaign expected to succeed given how subservient the press typically is. In this case, though, the Trump campaign stood its ground and ABC News flinched.

The dirty little secret about Harris’ desire for unmuted mics wasn’t that she was looking for a rehash of her “I’m speaking” moment at the 2020 vice presidential debate. On the contrary, the real reason she wanted open mics is so she could interrupt Donald Trump.

Part of Harris’ campaign is the idea that she’s a tough-talking, no-nonsense prosecutor who can take the former president to the woodshed intellectually. It wasn’t the “I’m speaking moment” she was after. She was after a repeat of her embarrassing back and forth with Brett Kavanaugh in which she made up an issue out of whole cloth and tried to bluff her way through a line of questioning.

With the mics muted, Harris won’t be able to do the rapid-fire interrogation of Trump she so desperately wanted to do, and her team is ticked off about it.

Kamala Harris had planned to object, fact-check and directly question Donald Trump while he was speaking during their debate next week.

But now, with rules just finalized to mute the candidates when their opponents speaks, campaign officials said Harris advisers are scrambling to rewrite their playbook.

Harris and her team — holed up in Pittsburgh for a multi-day debate camp — wanted unmuted microphones so that the vice president could lean on her prosecutorial background, confronting the former president in the same way she laced into some of Trump’s Supreme Court nominees and Cabinet members during Senate hearings.

Suggested debate rebuttals for Trump:

Harris: "I will be tough on the border"

Trump: "20 million invaded this country under your watch as border czar. If you believe the border is bad now, wait till Kamala fulfills her pledge to give free healthcare to illegals."

Here’s his full suggestion list:

Suggested debate rebuttals for Trump:

Harris: “I will be tough on the border”

Trump: “20 million invaded this country under your watch as border czar. If you believe the border is bad now, wait till Kamala fulfills her pledge to give free healthcare to illegals.”

Harris: “I will lower prices”

Trump: “You’ve had almost 4 years to lower prices, yet here we are. If you have a magic wand for reducing costs, why wait? Use it now. The fact is, your policies have led to inflation, not relief.”

Harris: “You’re a convicted felon”

Trump: “My legal battles are a badge of my fight against a corrupt establishment. If I had sold out like many in Washington, I wouldn’t be facing these charges. This isn’t justice, it’s political retribution.”

Harris: “Let’s talk about Project 2025”

Trump: “Project 2025? That’s a diversion. Let’s talk about the real project that’s failed America—Project 2021, otherwise known as your administration’s track record. I’ve publicly distanced myself from Project 2025, and your focus on it only shows you’re out of touch with what Americans really care about.”

Harris: “A woman has a right to choose”

Trump: “I believe in democracy, where states decide on issues like abortion, reflecting the will of their people. But let’s not forget, you’ve advocated for mandates that took away individual choice, like with the COVID vaccine.”

Harris: “What about January 6th?”

Trump: “You supported and bailed out the rioters in Minneapolis. You encouraged them, telling them not to stop. $2 billion worth of property damage and dozens kiIIed.”

Kamala has been debate prepping all week (like Biden did lol).
Her strategy – remain calm, needle Trump, showcase herself as a woman not scared of Trump.

Censorship is the left's go-to strategy when they can’t win debates. Kamala was fine silencing Trump—what’s next? https://t.co/IyB7N1lfr1 pic.twitter.com/vr0yhkiY8r
