Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign responded to former President Donald Trump's proposed debate schedule, which he posted on Truth Social just after midnight on Saturday.

The former president said there would be a debate on Fox News on September 4 in Pennsylvania, as well as the previously agreed to September 10 debate on ABC News in Pennsylvania, and a third debate on NBC News on September 25 in Michigan. "Details to follow. I look forward to seeing Kamala at all three Debates!" he wrote.

However, the Harris campaign suggested that this schedule was not agreed to from their side, except for the ABC debate.

"We're pleased Trump finally agreed to debate the Vice President on ABC after previously trying to back out. We are open to another debate, and we'll continue those conversations. But to be clear, any additional debate would be subject to Trump actually showing up on September 10. We're not playing his games," a Harris campaign aide told Newsweek in a Sunday morning email.

10. Other than the fact that there was no fact checks

The liar was allowed to spew his lies without question.

[JohnSJ]

2. No other debates until the ABC agreed upon debate first. and frankly, after the ABC

debate, no more debates are necessary.

[Old Crank]

4. Nothing on FOX.

Their presenters are all in for Trump and will allow him to spread his garbage with complete impunity.

Must have instant fact check.

[Rhiannon12866]

7. Completely agree, no reason to go near Fox at all unless the moderator is Jessica Tarlov

[Marcuse]

14. Any network that paid over $700M for lying is disqualified from hosting debates.

5. It's great to see a

Democratic candidate not allowing a Republican to set the parameters, define the issue, or set the Overton Window. It's especially great when it is the Democratic presidential candidate.

6. ABC firsy

No way would I do the FOX debate first. It would not surprise me at all if Fat Donnie would do the 'friendly' debate at FOX and then come up with a reason not to do the others. So good move by the Harris team to insist the ABC debate goes first.

20. Bone spurs

8. VP Harris doesn't put up with any Trump BS.

Good for her!

[AverageOldGuy]

9. This says it all:

". . . We're not playing his games, . . . "

[NJCher]

11. Harris's initial reaction

Was “if he shows up,” and it’s clear she knows he’s afraid of her.

Indeed, this silly schedule he put out is for no reason other than to give himself an excuse for backing out altogether. That will only fly with the cultists.

12. How DARE he order our Vice President to submit to his demands!!!!

HOW DARE HE???


the dates arent the issue..hes trying to get her down on her knees before him...


HOW DARE HE!!!!

[BumRushDaShow]

17. THIS 👆👆👆

He's doing the typical patriarchal "I'm in charge and here is what we are going to do" bullshit and she gave him the side-eye with a "No sweetheart, that is NOT what we are going to do" look like she did Pence way back when -

[moonshinegnomie]

13. he would show up for the fox debate and then skip the rest making up some loe

no other debates,especially on fox until after the abc one

[Botany]

15. Trump will have to do the one agreed upon debate on ABC or none at all.

He is in no position to demand anything at all.

[Vinca]

16. I predict he'll get his ass handed to him on Sept. 10 and we'll never hear about debates again.

[Scrivener7]

19. I'll predict he'll say she didn't show on the Fox one on Sept 5, so he's not doing ABC on the 10th.

He doesn't want to debate her. This is his way out, and he'll frame it as her running from him.

In the past, the media would have run with the message he fed them. Let's see how they handle it now. Especially because it MUST be dawning on them that we are wise to their and his crap.

[angrychair]

18. He is going to these debates

To attack her on national television. He has no intention of actually answering any debate questions or being the least bit productive in making the case for himself to be a president. He will absolutely use it to attack her case record as AG or district attorney or anything they can twist the facts on and make her seem defensive or her catch her off guard
