If there’s one thing 2024 has taught us, it’s that presidential debates can sometimes live up to the hype. Ahead of the last debate in June, the televised showdown between Donald Trump and President Biden was correctly billed by many as the single most important night of the presidential race. Tonight could end up being the second most important. This time, Trump faces off against Vice President Kamala Harris, with the pair locked in a very close race less than eight weeks before Election Day. Below are updates and live commentary on the first and possibly only Trump-Harris debate (which gets underway at 9 p.m. ET and can be streamed live on YouTube here).
