It was on Instagram that Taylor Swift decided to officially get involved in the election, which isn’t a first, but the debate was certainly a turning point for her. She also took the opportunity to get back at Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance for his references to childless cat ladies, Swift pointing out… that she herself is one.

A small victory for Kamala Harris, however, compared to the one she achieved against Trump during the debate, when the current Vice-President of the United States dominated and often trapped her opponent.

Kamala Harris came onstage with a clear plan: Throw Donald Trump off his game. And he took the bait — over and over again.

The analysis has only just begun and the election is still a long way ahead, but it was a good night for Kamala Harris.
