“I’m a Boston Democrat, so I’m pretty far to the left, and I want to focus my question on you tech-savvy folks: I’m really concerned. [former White House Press Secretary] Sean [Spicer] “As I said, the size difference between Kamala and Trump is huge in this debate, and they're both going to be standing,” Jesse said. “I was thinking back to the only time a woman really calmed Trump down, and that was Nancy Pelosi in the White House, and they were both sitting. My advice to Kamala would be, other than high heels, is there anything she can do to make up for that difference? I think body language is going to be super important.”
Jesse later said she was “very worried” about how Harris would perform in the debate. She said she “remembers Trump threatening Hillary” and finds the former president “very scary.”

It's not going to get to 40%. So I don't know how his approval rating is going to move. I think she's going to move more in that regard.”
