    Muted mics make him look like he’s being civil and letting Harris talk.

    Hot mic presents two interesting possibilities:

    1. He tries on his “low IQ” and “she suddenly decided to be black” attack lines and Harris calls him out so he looks like a fucking asshole to the average voter.

    2. He DOESNT try on his “low IQ” and “she suddenly decided to be black” attack lines and Harris calls back to her “say it to my face” line and paints him as a weak coward for the rest of the campaign.
