Eugene Robinson: Something is wrong with this split-screen picture. On one side, former president Donald Trump rants about mass deportations and claims to have stopped "wars with France," after being described by his longest-serving White House chief of staff as a literal fascist. On the other side, commentators debate whether Vice President Kamala Harris performed well enough at a CNN town hall to "close the deal."

Van Jones Slams Double Standard Between Harris And Trump
CNN political commentator Van Jones on Wednesday said it's "unfair" that people hold Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump to different standards as the polls continue to show an extremely tight race between the two candidates less than two weeks out of Election Day.
"Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are not taking the same exam," Jones replied. "I think it bothers people. They're not taking the same exam. He gets to be lawless. She has to be flawless. That's what's unfair."
"She has policies, she may not articulate them perfectly every time, she may not put the stories in the right places, but she's fighting for actual ideas that will help real people, and he's talking about peoples' penises," Jones said.
