Donald Trump will debate Kamala Harris on Fox News this September, the former president revealed on social media on Friday.
In a post on his social-media site Truth Social, Trump wrote, “I have agreed with FoxNews to debate Kamala Harris on Wednesday, September 4th. The Debate was previously scheduled against Sleepy Joe Biden on ABC, but has been terminated in that Biden will no longer be a participant, and I am in litigation against ABC Network and George Slopadopoulos, thereby creating a conflict of interest.
The FoxNews Debate will be held in the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, at a site in an area to be determined. The Moderators of the Debate will be Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, and the Rules will be similar to the Rules of my Debate with Sleepy Joe, who has been treated horribly by his Party – BUT WITH A FULL ARENA AUDIENCE!….”
Despite complaining that Biden’s replacement amounts to a “coup,” and that he had already “spent Hundreds of Millions of Dollars, Time, and Effort fighting Joe, and when I won the Debate, they threw a new Candidate into the ring,” Trump has said that he “totally accepts” having to face Kamala Harris.
Pennsylvania is one of the key battleground states that will decide the election, but it’s also important because it’s where Trump came within millimeters of death by an assassin’s bullet. Trump has vowed to return to Butler, Pennsylvania to finish the speech that was interrupted by Thomas Matthew Crooks on 13 July last month.
The presence of a live audience will also offer a significant potential boost to Trump, who complained about the lack of an audience during the first debate, with President Biden.
At time of writing, it’s unclear whether Kamala Harris has agreed to the debate. According to The New York Times, representatives of Ms Harris and Fox News have declined to comment on Trump’s claims.
Trump had previously agreed to debate Biden on ABC, on 10 September. Harris has already indicated her willingness to take Biden’s place in the scheduled debate.
“Well Donald, I do hope you’ll reconsider to meet me on the debate stage,” Harris said at a rally in Atlanta, on Tuesday.
“Because as the saying goes, ‘If you’ve got something to say, say it to my face.’”
