9:23 AM PT — Kamala just responded to Trump’s invitation to debate him on Fox News — and it’s an unequivocal no. She also says Trump is running scared because he originally agreed to the ABC debate with whomever the democratic candidate is and now he’s backing out. She ended by claiming that she would be happy to entertain future debate dates but only after the ABC showdown.
Donald Trump just told Kamala Harris “I’m in,” agreeing to debate his Democratic presidential rival and all but promising it will be one wild event.
The Republican presidential nominee posted a Friday night message on his Truth Social platform explaining that he wants to meet Kamala on stage in Pennsylvania for a televised debate that would air September 4 on Fox News.
DT requested a live audience unlike in his first debate on CNN with then Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. Speaking of whom, DT threw a jab at the Commander in Chief on Truth Social, calling him by his Trump-given nickname “Sleepy Joe.”
Trump also took a shot at Kamala, saying her assent to the top of the Democratic ticket was a “coup,” while grumbling about shifting strategies now that Harris is his opponent. Kamala became the dem’s presumptive nominee after Joe bowed out of the race under pressure from his political base.
Meanwhile, Kamala has yet to respond to Trump’s challenge, but she had previously asked him for a debate. Thing is … the venue may be a dealbreaker. Trump wants Fox News, but the Trump/Biden debate was supposed to be hosted by ABC News, and Trump’s made it clear … he has a problem with the network.c
