The US actor and presenter Ron Williams and the US author and journalist Eric T. Hansen discuss this on Maischberger. 00:00 Intro & welcome 01:20 Conclusion of the TV debate 09:30 Migration 13:40 Accusation of racism against Trump 21:00 Reporting on Trump Williams stressed that he was "completely happy" with Kamala Harris' appearance. The Democratic presidential candidate had "exposed Donald Trump as the accused in the debate and shown the world what was really behind it". She made Trump "react the way he reacted for four years in the White House: incompetent, loud, lacking empathy, ignorance and laziness." Trump accuses Harris of failings in recent years, which is unjustified: Williams believes it is wrong to hold Kamala Harris responsible for Joe Biden's policies. The actor emphasizes that Trump is a racist, while Harris can win over both black and white US voters. Williams also criticizes Trump for not caring about Europe's security. Eric T. Hansen also sees plus points for Harris after the US TV debate, but he is not yet convinced - without a script, she "gets tangled up," says Hansen. He also attests that Trump has more competence than Kamala Harris in the areas of immigration and foreign policy. Trump has also reduced inflation and unemployment during his term in office, says Hansen. The US author speaks of a "culture of blame" towards Donald Trump in the German media. They would rather copy from the left-wing American media than from the right-wing ones. Instead of debates about skin color and gender, the discourse should focus on the content, says Hansen.
