LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris face off Tuesday night to debate key issues ahead of this November's election.

Some of those questions include:

  • How will Kamala Harris perform in a debate against Donald Trump? How presidential can she be?
  • Will the candidates address issues concerning the economy, such as the job market and interest rates?
  • Will they have a productive conversation and share decisive decisions about the future, and not just general policy statements?

Joe brought these questions to Dr. Sandra Cosgrove, a history professor at the College of Southern Nevada, to share how she felt the candidates addressed these issues and how they performed overall during the debate.
