IMAGE: 'Throughout Tuesday's debate, the vice president looked poised, qualified and presidential -- and that's without comparing herself to the clearly frustrated former president with whom she shared a stage,' MSNBC contributor Brian Tyler Cohen commented.
'Harris baited Donald Trump repeatedly, and mostly easily. She needled and poked him on crowd size, his rallies, his racist and easily debunked lies about Haitian immigrants and his flip-flops on abortion.' Photograph: Brian Snyder/Reuters

This is a reverse of what a similar poll after Trump debated Joe Biden in June stated: Trump then had 67% to Biden's 33%, which eventually led to the American president dropping out of the presidential race. Photograph: Brian Snyder/Reuters

We're not going back,' Biden, who watched the debate in a New York hotel room, tweeted. Photograph: Brian Snyder/Reuters

His most recent jab -- making fun of her height.

IMAGE: 'In a fiery 90 minutes, Harris frequently rattled the former president with personal attacks that threw him off message and raised the temperature of this highly-anticipated contest,' the BBC observed about the debate. Photograph: Brian Snyder/Reuters

IMAGE: 'If debates are won and lost on which candidate best takes advantage of issues where they are strong -- and defends or deflects on areas of weakness -- Tuesday night tilted in favour of the vice-president,' the BBC added. Photograph: Brian Snyder/Reuters

IMAGE: 'As Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump took the stage Tuesday night for their first presidential debate against each other, the two shook hands -- the first time two presidential candidates have shaken hands since 2016,' ABC, the American television network which hosted the debate, noted.

IMAGE: 'The Harris campaign says that it wants a second presidential debate in October, moments after the end of the first debate,' Fox News, the US cable news network which tilts towards the Republicans, reported.
' "I think it was the best debate that I've ever personally that I've had," Trump said,' CNN reported.
'He said Harris "wants to do another one because she got beaten tonight, but I don't know if we're going to be doing another one."
'Trump was again noncommittal when asked on Fox News whether he would agree to another debate with Harris, saying, "I have to think about it, but if you won the debate, I sort of think maybe I shouldn't do it".' Photograph: Evelyn Hockstein/Reuters
