Question

How can a presidential debate “make or break” a presidential candidate?

Answer 1

in the first 30 minutes, we will have a sense of how the entire remaining debate series will go, depending on who the candidates are, the candidates are prepared and respectful or is the whole thing a hot mess

Answer 2

By using facts it can break the other candidate or President because if they can’t back that statement up in the debate everyone will see it.
