For this special, breaking news episode of State House, Frank reviews the recent presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and President Donald Trump. For anyone who watched the debate themselves, it’s easy to describe the event as contentious. Frank analyzes the key issues the candidates discussed, their performance, and how the media portrayed each candidate before and after their debate performance. Frank argues that while Harris appeared articulate at most points, he believes she failed to connect with undecided voters. Trump, for his part, stood strong on the national security and economic issues his campaign has become known for. Frank ends the episode by taking a look at who really “won” the debate—in the media’s eyes, and in the eyes of the public.

DISCLAIMER: This episode was recorded on July 18th, the week before President Biden announced he would not run for reelection.
Johanna Maska is back for pt. 2 of her conversation with Frank, this time talking all things Donald Trump, unlikely voters, and potential Democratic candidates. The episode starts out with a discussion of former President Trump and how his claims about President Biden gained credibility after Biden’s poor debate performance. This segues into a discussion on how crucial it is for both parties to capture unlikely voters come November, and why—no matter who wins—the office of the President should be respected and supported.
Maska, who served as communications director in the Obama White House, offers a list of Democratic individuals who should be considered as potential candidates and running mates. It’s an increasingly relevant list as presumptive nominee Kamala Harris fleshes out her Party’s ticket. The two finish their conversation by emphasizing the importance of respectful debates and different perspectives in a healthy democracy.
