Harris' demand is a break from the Biden campaign, and it indicates the VP thinks Trump's outbursts would end up benefiting her.

    I’m willing to bet that’s the goal on Harris’ part. The Democrats have finally found that the way to unravel him is just belittle him rather than giving him any measure of power. If the debate goes forward unmuted, she just has to be dismissive and call him weird/old/whatever and I guarantee he’ll fly off the handle.
