Remember that Harris is an experienced prosecutor. Her literal job has been dealing with liars, cheats, and various scummy and desperate lawyers for years. If anyone can shut down the Trump oral vomit, it’s going to be her.
She is, but Trump is special. I don’t know that any previous experience will necessarily apply. In the courtroom she would have always been empowered by speaking from a position of authority - Trump will show her no such decorum.
That’s on the moderation, and I can’t say I’ve seen good moderation for the big debates in a long time. They should bring in a grade school teacher who does regular debate classes and let them do what they know how to do.
I guess I left that part unsaid, but yes. With good moderation Trump wouldn’t be able to run his schtick - but here we are. We have to play the hand we’re dealt.

I hear Katie Porter needs a gig and she would be a fearsome moderator.
In the actual courtroom he was insulting the jury, and even a judge who could issue contempt charges was struggling to keep order.
Or the previous trial described by the news as “tantrums in court”, talking over the witnesses and arguing with the judge.
