Trump’s Female Problem To Take Center Stage.
In past debates against Hillary Clinton, Trump tried to undermine, belittle or humiliate both her and female debate moderators. This time, his advisers have pushed him to focus on Harris’ record and try not to let her get under his skin. And while he has recently claimed his administration “will be great for women and their reproductive rights,” he has stumbled over questions about abortion and child care, and spent the Friday before the presidential debate railing against women who have accused him of sexual misconduct.

Trump’s performance with female voters is “the weak spot in his campaign right now,” said former Trump campaign adviser David Urban. “I think he can attack her policies without attacking her. And that’s the kind of needle he has to thread. You can attack the vice president of the United States for her failed policies without attacking the woman.” By Meridith McGraw, Myah Ward, Christopher Cadelago and Elena Schneider ‘Politico’
The debate will be a chance for both candidates to create a foil with the other candidate and point out their vastly different approaches to governing the nation. Donald Trump has a huge deficit with female voters and he happens to be going up against a strong woman and everyone is wondering who will win or lose the debate. American politics is a 0 sum game there is no gray area it tends to be all or nothing and that will make for good television as both candidates jockey for position.
