#debate Here’s what I hope Harris says after a typical Trump rant in their debate: “To quote Ronald Reagan, ‘There you go again.’ You keep spouting lies, hoping that enough voters will believe you if you keep repeating them. None of what you just said is true and can easily be fact-checked. Now here are the real facts . . .”

@johnldeboer Not wild about quoting Reagan since his folksy patter was used to plaster over valid points.

Most encourage her not to get bogged down calling out every lie but I would love to see some sort of acknowledgment, like a white board to update. Or maybe bring out a big counter used to tell who is next in line and just tally them up as they happen.

@S_r_stone Reagan’s line was determinative, at least according to pundits today. And he was a beloved Republican. So I think that would be a good ploy, emphasizing Republican leaders coming out to endorse her.

No, she can’t get bogged down countering his many lies individually..That would favor Trump, who could then use that Reagan line himself.

@johnldeboer It was effective, no doubt.

He got away with so much crap by being "likable" even as he tossed out racist dogwhistles left and right.

Trump is as unlikable as they come, but he replaced the dogwhistles with a foghorn. And he gets his own network channels to just ignore the insane ramblings

@S_r_stone The foghorn only works if there is a significant segment of the population who agrees with it. Sadly, that’s the case.
