The proposed debate would be held on Sept. 4 in a yet-to-be determined location in Pennsylvania, with rules similar to the June 27 debate on CNN between Trump and Joe Biden — but with an audience.The proposed debate would be held on Sept. 4 in a yet-to-be-announced location in Pennsylvania, with rules similar to the June 27 CNN debate between Trump and Joe Biden — but with an audience.
This comes as Trump declared Friday that a previously scheduled Sept. 10 debate on ABC News had been terminated by Biden when he left the race last month following his poor debate performance on CNN.This comes after Trump declared that he had terminated a previously scheduled Sept. 10 debate on ABC News after Biden left the presidential race and endorsed Harris last month.
Throughout the year, Trump begged to debate Biden with complete indifference to the details. However, the former president and his team became reluctant to face Kamala Harris aswhen soon as she became the Democratic candidate. Trump fears how he would perform against a younger, and more dynamic figure aslike Harris, so he is backpedaling now.
It doesn't matter how hard Democrats and their media allies try to act as if Trump is dodging the September debate; that claim will never be valid. He had agreed to face off with Biden twice after details were negotiated between their teams, so new negotiations had to occur after Harris' nomination. If she refuses this debate proposal, then she's the one who's afraid to debate.
