The duel between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump enters its decisive phase after two triumphant conventions. The candidates flee from concrete proposals in favor of big ideas and their personal stories, in a very open battle where the Democrat opts for joy and the Republican for an apocalyptic message.
After two triumphant conventions, barely two and a half months of campaigning will decide Biden's successor in the White House, with the September 10 debate as the next big event. The elections are posed as a contrast of candidates in which character, personal stories and big ideas take center stage to the detriment of concrete programmatic proposals.
Harris' examination has only just begun. She has not yet given any press conferences or in-depth interviews - she has promised one for next week - to face questions about her management of these years, her future plans and her changes of opinion.
The elections will be decided in six or seven key states, which is where the two parties will concentrate their campaign efforts in the just over two and a half months left until the elections. Trump cannot stand not being the center of attention and this week has tried to counter-program the Democratic convention with several rallies that the media have paid little attention to.
