people viewed this versus on the google search trends, how this came across. look at wide swaths of the country, tulsi gabbard who wide swaths of the country searched for. who knows why? after the first debate. cory booker in the southeast. after the second debate, you look at the second debate. here we have kamala harris in major parts of the country there. also pete buttigieg too. maryann williamson. the mitten state, michigan. do we take anything from this? or people are curious? i think it s curiosity. we don t know what sparks of interest in gabbard. was it her stance on foreign policy? she talked mostly about foreign policy. best-selling author from 1992. oprah s bff. i think er book was return to love. yeah, she had interesting moments where she said democrats won t win on white papers, they
racist too. shocker. what does the response from the president s team show us how they view kamala harris s moment in her debate performance from thursday? yeah. i think that donald trump jr. s instinctual response to dabble in that conspiracy theory shows they view her as a formidable candidate who they are eager to undermine. that is walking toward the obama birther conspiracy that trump himself more than dabbled in. you know, i know for a fact that talking to trump campaign aides that they believe that kamala harris has considerable political skills. i think the question is, you know, my politico colleague chris catalogueo had a great story how kamala harris practiced that moment in the debate. she went back and forth with her aides about different responses that biden could have given her. and i think the question for her is can she do as well in
