The Donald Trump versus Kamala Harris debate is coming up next week, and the big question is how do you fight a halfwit? One of the things I always say that stuns people is that I would much rather be up against a good lawyer than a bad one – any day. Someone who can competently present ideas, the law, and arguments. It's easier to respond to them if they make sense. I don't have to try to explain what they are trying to say, and if they're crazy, a jury might think, "I'm not entirely sure what they just said but I agree with it and they can't be that crazy." So what do you do in this case? Well, last time, against Joe Biden, Trump did nothing. Biden self-destructed. But regardless of what Trump decides to do this time around, I don't think the odds are on Harris' side.
