Former President Donald Trump has agreed to participate in a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris on Fox News in September. The debate was initially set to take place on ABC against Joe Biden, but Trump decided to switch networks due to an ongoing lawsuit against ABC and George Stephanopoulos. The debate on Fox News is scheduled for September 4th in Pennsylvania, with moderators Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum.
However, Harris has not agreed to participate in the Fox News debate and has insisted on sticking to the original plan of debating on ABC on September 10th. Her campaign spokesperson accused Trump of trying to back out of the agreed-upon debate and running to Fox News instead. Harris remains ready to debate Trump and is determined to take the opportunity to address a national audience.
The political dynamics surrounding the presidential debates have been tense, with both parties trying to secure the best platforms for their candidates. Trump and Harris are currently neck-and-neck in the polls, making the upcoming debates crucial for both campaigns. The decision to reduce the number of debates and move them up to June and September reflects the changing landscape of elections and the interests of voters.
Despite the back and forth between the two candidates, the stage is set for a high-stakes debate that could sway undecided voters. Trump’s decision to switch networks and Harris’s insistence on sticking to the original plan add a layer of drama to the upcoming face-off. The American public will be watching closely as the candidates present their visions for the future of the country.
