Tonight Tuesday, September 10th is not only the night that former President Donald Trump will debate Vice President Kamala Harris, but tonight marks the night in which we will make our prediction on who the next President will most likely be in the United States. One thing to keep in mind is that there are no guarantees in politics. What we mean by this is that, when it comes to politics, there tends to always be some kind of a “wild card” that if played will significantly change the trajectory of the political landscape.

 

According to reports, even though Vice President Kamala Harris has surged through the polls, former President Trump still has a noticeable lead that could lead him to regaining the oval office. Currently there are two hot variables that have the strength to determine the results of the election, and those variables are “Abortion” and the “Economy”. It is our position at VEDA Communications that abortion shouldn’t be a determining factor, but apparently, having the power to kill babies is a priority in the minds of many Americans. We can say this because in a previous article entitled “Abortions Are For Whores Who Hate Responsibility & Accountability”, we highlighted the fact that most women who get abortions don’t get them based off of being raped – but they get abortions simply because of their personal choice and their inability to face the notion of their poor decision making skills as it pertains to having unprotected sex with men they have no intentions of marrying and starting a family with.

 

When it comes to the economy, many Americans doubt that Kamala Harris has the ability to steer the country’s economic policy in the right direction. This is especially relevant given her talking points on placing price caps on everyday items such as groceries and other items. For many Americans, Vice President Kamala Harris’s blatant disregard of both the “Hidden Hand of the market” and her seemingly failure to understand basic economics raises red flags in their mind.

 

When it comes to former President Trump, many Americans think that his conservative values and chainsaw approach to foreign economic policy in regard to both Ukraine and China may not be the best thing for America either. Moreover, there is a sizable number of Americans that think that Trump will prevent women from having access to doctors who perform abortions procedures. Although this is false train of thought, it is a train of thought that is adopted by many Americans who are in a sense “anti-Trump”.

 

ABC News will be hosting and airing the debate, and it will begin at 9pm ET. Both Harris and Trump have accepted the following rules for tonight’s debate which consist of the following:
