Media learning. Were trying. Were 60 second away from the president ial debate. It is hosted by Abc News, moderated by David Muir and lyndsey davis. The two candidates have never met Face To face and of course, the differences between them couldnt be more stark. If telected Donald Trump would be the oldest person ever inaugurated to the u. S. Presidency. He has spent the last few days threatening to imprison his political enemies. And being derided for just being plainly incoherent.

All of this, anderson, really boils down to harris flipping the script here and using trump s own words and actions against him. All right. Thanks very much. We ll check in a little bit later. David axelrod, you have been with the presi
