MSNBC analysts Donny Deutsch and Michael Steele during a Thursday podcast mused about former President Donald Trump accidentally saying something “racist” during his upcoming debate with Vice President Kamala Harris.

The Trump and Harris campaigns have both consented to a Sept. 10 debate on ABC News, and the former president also announced he has agreed to presidential debate dates with Fox News and NBC News. Deutsch and Steele on “On Brand with Donny Deutsch,” said Harris is better equipped for the debate and suggested Trump will be racist to the vice president during the contest.

“I’m convinced there’s going to be a real grotesque racist slip. I mean, he’s said a bunch of racist things already. I could just see something coming out that is even more egregious than the things we’ve heard already,” Deutsch said.

“Well, you know it’s going to happen, Donny, when he calls her ‘Kamala,’ and she goes, ‘Excuse me, my name is Kamala.’ What does he do at that point? What does he do? Where does he go?” Steele responded.

Former Harris communications director Jamal Simmons recently warned Democrats not to overestimate how well the vice president will perform against Trump during the debate. He noted Harris has not debated in four years, while Trump has more recent experience.

“I got my popcorn ready. I cannot wait just because she’s a prosecutor; she’s great on her feet and she’s got the facts on her side,” Deutsch said.

Harris has not sat down for a single interview one month into her presidential campaign. NewsNation host Chris Cuomo said during a Thursday podcast that Harris is ducking the media because she is more vulnerable than past Democratic presidential nominees.

“You don’t want to put her in front of the media because you think there’s risk in that,” Cuomo said. “Wouldn’t have done that with Bill Clinton, they wouldn’t have done that with Hillary Clinton, they wouldn’t have done that with Barack Obama, because they felt there was no risk about putting those people in the chair.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
