Well, this is good news.
Especially when you break down the demographics.
It is true that 4 of the 5 nights of polling were pre debate, however, Rasmussen also found that " just 1% of the voters would pick another candidate and 2% remained undecided" and the debate results were mixed regardless of who won. Thus, the impact of the debate is likely very small regardless (as we all have assumed except in cases where the candidate drools and faces backwards at the podium.

Sure - polls that changed their sampling pattern to manipulate. It's always been close & will be.

Is that why Trump is afraid to debate again …
because it doesn’t matter (rhetorical). The answer is he’s afraid of getting his ass kicked again. Only the most biased people roiled that was anything but a complete embarrassment for Trump.

I'tt tell you why. First why should he? He has the lead and has gone on pro Harris ABC and CNN. Let
Harris agree to a FOX debate. She's going to stand up to Xi and Putin but is afraid of Fox?. She's afraid of getting real questions.
BS. Kamala is winning. Donald got humiliated by a woman of color.

Trump does not need anyone to humiliate him in the eyes of Dems.
He auto-humiliates for them.
But… this is a given and iis irrelevant.
He always did this!
The issue on Election Day will be how our undecided “feel” about their own personal futures when they cast their votes
The debate was inconsequential. You are delusional.

Not sure what color has to do with it. If she's winning she wouldn't want to debate again. Losers
want rematches. Her internal polls tell her she's in trouble. She's losing and her camp knows it.
Kamala kicked Donald's ass & her lead expanded. She beats him again and it's night night.

How often does Rasmussen update?
The next poll will be more telling.
It's only good news for those folks who think their candidate lost.
If one thinks their preferred candidate won the debate wouldn't they want the debate to be consequential?
Then it must be bad news If one thinks their preferred candidate won the debate.

Correct.

You missed my point - probably didn’t read the post again.
It does really matter who “won” the debate as this data shows…again, if you read the quote that I mentioned.
The “winner” was determined by the viewers preference by and large.
The number of those to be influenced by it is remarkably small (again that pesky quote that needs to be read).
Trump appears to lead (though only 20% of poll was collected post debate but again….only a very small # will be affected by it per this poll). Trump is splitting with Hispanic voters, getting 30% of black voters, and otherwise as expected each way. The demographic split is good news…..now THAT is something you can say is just my opinion.
If you want to claim debate victory, be my guest.
I'm not claiming anything.
I didn't watch the debate. Don't know who won. Don't care who won.
Just pointing out truths. That's all.
I agree with your point of perceived winners. It is absolutely true.
But the good news that I was referring to was not about winning or losing the debate. It’s about the demographics that are being seen, and the relative firmness of them at this point.
