Today's action-packed Presidential debate has wrapped, leaving many convinced it was a victory for Kamala Harris.

She and Donald Trump traversed a battlefield covering inflation, abortion and foreign policy.

The contrast between the two was clear - with Harris more future-focused, and Trump hailing back to his Presidency.

US historian Allan Lichtman says Harris's win was crystal clear.

"She was good, maybe very good. Trump was abysmal - he got baited by Harris time and time again."

Lichtman says Trump's off-the rails comment about migrants eating pets will stick in people's brains.
