Former CNN politics reporter and editor-at-large Chris Cillizza said Friday he believes Vice President Kamala Harris is “frightened” beforehand of her Tuesday evening debate on ABC Information against former President Donald Trump.

On his YouTube channel, Cillizza live-streamed and took questions from his followers. He opined at one point Harris may well be anxious but in addition said Republicans could be unwise to underestimate her, despite the fact that she has not participated in this sort of forum to the level Trump has.

A viewer asked him, “How do you think Kamala will fare within the debate? My guess is we’ll be right here subsequent week speaking about Kamala fumbling the debate.”

Cillizza responded:

I don’t be aware of is the reply. Seem to be, she’s no longer been on this giant a stage sooner than, which, in truth, only a few folks have. Though I think it’s essential to notice – Donald Trump has been in, this shall be his seventh normal election presidential debate. Seventh. That’s greater than someone in historical past. So, I feel there’s a level of kind of remedy there for him. And she’s never been in a presidential debate before. She’s been in a vice-presidential debate, but by no means a presidential debate.

So, I do suppose she is going almost definitely to be just a little bit more nervous. I feel she has more driving on it. I don’t – appear – Trump has an extraordinarily high ceiling relating to voter enhance – excuse me, an awfully high ground relating to voter enhance and an extraordinarily low ceiling. He principally strikes between forty six and forty eight % of the vote. He doesn’t go to fifty two or 51. He doesn’t go to forty. So I don’t know the way his numbers move. I believe she has probably extra motion there. I don’t assume she’ll fumble it, although.

right Here’s the whole video:

Harris has been in Pittsburgh for the remaining a couple of days preparing to face Trump in what will be the one time the two will square off prior to November.

The talk starts Tuesday at 9 p.m.ET.
