The debate schedules have caused a public dispute between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump advocates for three debates in September, while Harris has only agreed to one.
Trump revealed on Thursday that he has agreed on dates with Fox News for September 4, NBC News for September 25, and ABC News for September 10.
“I think it’s very important to have debates, and we’ve agreed with Fox on a date of Sept. 4,” Trump told reporters at Mar-a-Lago. “We’ve agreed with NBC, fairly full agreement, subject to them on Sept. 10, and we’ve agreed with ABC on Sept. 25. So, we have those three dates.”

As expected, Kamala wants absolutely no part of debating Trump on FOX.
The Dems know they have to go on a network that will aid them, and ABC are their subservient lapdogs.

The debate about debates has become a sensational affair. Trump’s suggestion of a debate with Fox News before September 10 is awaiting Harris’s consent.
Harris has hesitated, challenging Trump to speak to her directly and questioning his dedication.
Chicken-mala Harris was talking all that junk about “meet me on the debate stage” and “say it to my face”— it was all talk, she’s terrified that Trump will embarrass her the way he embarrassed her boss and ended his campaign. pic.twitter.com/94RSmUrXzz

“What happened to anytime, anyplace?” she posted on social media. Her campaign added, “Mr. Anytime, anywhere, anyplace should have no problem with that unless he’s too scared to show up on the 10th.”
Trump has taken a hardline stance, insisting on the Fox debate or none at all. “I am beyond trying to speculate about how he thinks,” Harris said about Trump’s insistence on the Fox debate.
Harris’s team has been accused of avoiding challenging interviews and tightly scripting her public appearances. Trump has been vocal about this, suggesting, “The other side has to agree to the terms,” and criticizing Harris’s media presence. “She can’t do an interview. She’s barely competent,” Trump added.
