Key takeaways from a debate that featured tense clashes and closed with a Taylor Swift endorsement

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris have faced each other on the debate stage for the first and possibly the last time. The Democratic vice president opened Tuesday night's debate with a power move, marching across the stage to Trump’s lectern to shake his hand. The exchange set the tone for the next 90 minutes. Harris controlled the conversation at times, baiting Trump with jabs at his economic policy, his refusal to concede his 2020 election loss and even his performance at his rallies. While Trump was often on defense, but he did drive the core message of his campaign — that inflation and immigration are hammering Americans. And one significant moment played out after the two candidates had left the stage, when megastar Taylor Swift said she’ll vote for Harris.
