Kamala Harris and Donald Trump meet for the first time on a debate stage in Philadelphia, sparring over key issues and exchanging deep personal attacks.
The momentous meeting was marked by question dodging, finger pointing… and a claim about pet-eating.
The BBC‘s Justin Webb, Sarah Smith, Marianna Spring and Anthony Zurcher give their analysis on the debate.

Go, Kamala go , it's all yours.
@lukelu8042
I think Trump did not look at her is because he despised her.
@4LED
Disney rhetoric now o(w)n BBC…
@ndjibukabengele973
That is a stupid question, Kamala won the debate. She talked about her plan while Trump criticized the Obama care without offering anything better or implementing anything better when He took over after Obama’s administration.
@billmitchell2080
Taylor Swift's endorsement being a big deal is an indication of how superficial American politics has become.
@georgesgiworgis3205
Mr Trump is winner.
@robertschoelerman7496
Haris won trump looked rattled
@JudyStockstill
The loser was ABC NEWS. Shut them down. They are way too biased and have no concern for the SAFETY of our nation.
@samiaint8043
Trump proved he is the Great White NOPE.
@AnthonyD-yy2in

@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings
Mind Begs the Question:
▪︎If Judiciary,Police are too weak
▪︎To arrest clearly Criminal Politicians
▪︎Who support Starvation,Gassing White Phosphorus,Concentration Camps,Ethnic Cleansing,etc
▪︎Judiciary,Police – Not Complicit or Equally Complicit?
@dungeonmasteromega
"Concepts of a plan" and "They're eating the dogs" are probably going to bite deep into Donald Trump's vote tally in November, at least among independent voters.
@autisticfieldmarshall1006
There is something funny about people living in non-democratic like China, UK or Iran talking about American politics.
@jasonmcloughlin8974
America needs the first Madam president, I mean c'mon, let her have it❤❤❤❤❤❤
@jasonmcloughlin8974
Down with foul Trump, otherwise the by god A won't be great again, we all know this is the truth❤

If you have to ask, then you need a mental health exam together with the guy who thinks migrants are eating people's pets.
@jasonmcloughlin8974
Foul Trump is DOOMED😂

Kamala 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
@doreeneclose6295
Is there an undecided voter?😂 I doubt it.
@johnnywarda930
Taylor Swift cannot swing states😂
@doreeneclose6295
I must be outside the norm, because I don’t vote on personality and one liners, written behind the scenes by political pundits. I vote on the issues. Trump won on issues hands down. Kamala has been in office for 3 years and life for Americans has never been worse. We are going to see a catastrophe in housing and jobs as the many millions of migrants assimilate into our country. As a lifelong Dem, turned Independent, I shutter to imagine what another 4 years with the anointed Kamala at the helm will bring. We could have had RFK, if the DNC hadn’t rigged the primary then anointed their queen. I don’t recognize my country.
@chuyingwu4799
In this debate, President Trump faced off against 4 opponents at a one-to-one ratio! And the headphones of ABC2+Kamala And (earrings) cheated! So President Trump won by a landslide and is the winner✌️!
@doreeneclose6295
Taylor Swift’s crowd doesn’t vote in meaningful numbers. Sadly, the young complain on social media and show up for concerts, but they don’t show to vote.
