Kamala Harris and Donald Trump shook hands Wednesday at New York’s 9/11 memorial to mark the anniversary of the attacks, hours after they clashed in a combustible TV debate. The Democratic vice president delivered a strong performance against her Republican rival, most analysts said, as the two head toward the November election neck-and-neck in the polls. Both candidates declared victory after coming face to face for the first time on the biggest night so far of the campaign — although any major shift in support may be unlikely. The ABC News-hosted debate in Philadelphia was punctuated by tense exchanges, with Harris focused on policy while Trump’s answers were littered with wild falsehoods and were often about his past grievances. On Wednesday, Trump came out swinging in an early morning interview with Fox News, claiming — without evidence — that the debate was "rigged" against him. Following a fiery debate that saw Harris dominate an extremely combative exchange, FRANCE 24’s Nadia Massih is joined by Alan Schroeder, Author, former Diplomat, and Professor Emeritus in the School of Journalism at Northeastern University.
