BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) — After Tuesday night’s presidential debate, I hit the town for reaction.
In the wake of the presidential debate, marked by fiery exchanges, policy clashes, and personal jabs, it has become the focal point of discussions across Central Oregon.
Debate, reactions by voters, highlight deepening divides as the race for the presidency intensifies.
Richard Jensma, Bend resident:
“I support President Trump because he’s got a long track record, he’s done a lot to support this country. He gave up his wealth so he could serve the country because he saw that there was nobody else at the point when he was president.”
Alice Lakey, Redmond resident:
“Basically, Harris went after him regarding abortion rights, and that was fantastic, because they need to be enshrined federally, not just on the state level. The fact he couldn’t give a coherent rebuttal pretty much says everything you need to know about his thoughts on the policy.”
I asked: “Were you in the middle when Biden decided that it was time for him to pass the baton?”
