Harris-Trump Debate: Celebrity Reactions To The Biggest Political Night Of The Year So Far
Kamala Harris might have received a long-awaited endorsement from Taylor Swift minutes after last night’s presidential debate with Donald Trump came to a finale, but it seems Swift isn’t the only A-lister to share their thoughts over the US vice president and former president’s debating skills.
On Monday night, the two presidential candidates for 2024 took to the podiums at Philadelphia’s National Constitution Centre for a debate hosted by ABC News. It marked the first meeting between the two White House hopefuls and began with Harris walking over to her opponent’s podium to deliver him a handshake to kickstart the debate.

I don’t know how she can keep a straight face with this nut going on about “executing the baby after it’s born”…that’s murder. Or, as others have said, “a school shooting”.

America got to see tonight the leader I’ve been proud to work alongside for three and a half years. Wasn’t even close. VP Harris proved she’s the best choice to lead our nation forward. We’re not going back.

After tonight’s debate there should be no doubt – no room for discussion – @KamalaHarris is the only candidate in this race who is ready to be President.
I am once again urging everyone to roll up their sleeves and DO SOMETHING – phone bank, knock on doors, talk to any and… pic.twitter.com/wEm07dVYkR— Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) September 11, 2024
Tonight, we saw firsthand who has the vision and strength to move this country forward instead of dividing us. @KamalaHarris will be a president for all Americans.

Honestly, I was anxious about this debate but what is clear is that Kamala not only has a vision for the future and lifting America up but she is just so much even-tempered and so much smarter that Trump. She crushed him. #Debate2024

Him: We are a failing, 3rd-World nation!
We're headed for WWIII!
They're killing babies after they're born!
Haitian migrants are eating your pets!
Couldn't think of anything he'd do differently on Jan 6th!#AngryDefensiveandWeird 🤬🤪
