Kamala Harris channeled Clair Huxtable to counter Donald Trump’s debate falsehoods

Who you consider the winner of the consequential first presidential debate between former president Donald Trump and current Vice President Kamala Harris is likely based on who you liked before the two even took the stage tonight in Philadelphia. But after watching the two spar on ABC, I would give the win to Harris, mostly because she managed not to tell wild bold-faced lies about her opponent’s positions, and because she maintained a silently strong visage that evoked Gen X’s favorite fictional lawyer and mother — “The Cosby Show”’s Clair Huxtable.
