Like millions of viewers, María Revelles, candidate for Florida House of Representatives District 47, tuned in last night to the first, and possibly only, presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
One of the main things Revelles highlighted is that throughout the debate Trump did not miss the opportunity to attack immigrants.

“Trump started attacking directly our immigrant community. He created terms like migrant crime and talked about the lies about our Haitian brothers and sisters eating pets and things like that,” Revelles told Floricua.
During the debate, Trump had repeated a debunked report that immigrants were killing and eating pets in Ohio.
Revelles also pointed out how Trump made statements without evidence, something that was highlighted in Harris’ performance.
“You have Kamala Harris, who is strong, is energetic, is wise, understands policy, understands politics. And again Trump, that is all over the place, cool, doesn’t rely in facts,” said Revelles who saw the debate in Orlando, surrounded by Puerto Ricans, Latinos from different countries, and Floridians.
ABC News moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis fact-checked and corrected Trump four times during the debate.
For example, Trump made his oft-repeated claim that Democrats supported killing babies after they were born. Then Davis said, “There is no state in the country where it is legal to kill a baby after it was born.”

ABC moderators did not correct any statements made by Harris.
Near the conclusion of the debate, CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale posted on social media that “Trump has been extremely dishonest, while Harris has been mostly (though not completely) truthful.”
