Hillary Clinton: How Kamala Harris Can ‘Rattle’ Trump at Debate
Hillary Clinton has some advice for Kamala Harris in advance of Tuesday night’s ABC presidential debate with Donald Trump. “I talked with her about a number of things,” Clinton told the New York Times. “She just should not be baited. She should bait him. He can be rattled. He doesn’t know how to respond to substantive, direct attacks.”
“And I think that from her prosecutorial background, I think that’s what she will be equipped to do. I mean, when I said he was a Russian puppet and he just sputtered onstage, I think that’s an example of how you get out a fact about him that really unnerves him.”
Clinton knows of what she speaks—having debated Trump in 2016 when she was standing for the presidency; at one debate observers noted how he had menacingly prowled behind her as she spoke.
