Kamala should've rebutted the foreign policy attack tonight by talking about bin Ladin --

the al Qaeda leader killed by a well-planned raid overseen by the Obama-Biden leadership.

That would have been a good counter to Pence talking about Trump taking out a leader of ISIS.

She should also have noted that Obama's administration oversaw driving ISIS out of most of Iraq, and Trump just finished the job.

What she said was all good, but it would've been better to show that Biden/Obama did show strength in going after terrorists, since so many voters are motivated by fear.

Though she still could have mentioned that the routing of ISIS began under the Obama admin and that Obama-Biden kept us safe from terrorism attacks on US soil.

continual stealing time and the moderator not controlling him.

She still won though.
