Trump says agrees with Fox News to debate Harris on Sept. 4
Korea HeraldAUG 14 2024
ABC News confirmed in a statement on Thursday that former Pres. Donald Trump and Vice Pres. Kamala Harris will face off in a presidential debate on Sept. 10, after the Republican agreed to the matchup in a press conference at Mar-a-Lago.
The network added that its anchors David Muir and Linsey Davis will moderate the debate. The exact format — including whether or not there will be a live audience — and ground rules are yet to be determined.
This comes as Trump, who was set to debate Pres. Joe Biden on ABC News on Sept. 10, declared last weekend that his agreement had been "terminated" as Biden left the race, and proposed a single debate with Harris on Fox News on Sept. 4.
demTrump was forced to recalibrate his debate strategy after his take-it-or-leave-it Fox News offer backfired, disappointing even some of his fans. It's no wonder that the candidate who spent weeks running away from a debate is now interested in not just one, but three showdowns: He is desperate ahead of an imminent defeat.
