Former President Donald Trump has confirmed that he will be debating Vice President Kamala Harris on September 4th in Pennsylvania, a crucial battleground state. The event will be moderated by Fox News anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, making it the second presidential debate of the election cycle and the first between Trump and Harris.
While Trump has agreed to the debate and announced it on his social media platform, Truth Social, it is still unclear whether Harris has accepted the invitation and the terms of the debate. Representatives from her campaign have not yet responded to requests for comments. Similarly, Fox News has not provided any details or comments regarding the debate.
Trump mentioned that the debate will have a live audience, unlike the previous debate between Biden and Trump, which took place in an empty venue. The rules for the Fox News debate are said to be similar to the CNN debate, which included mic cuts to prevent interruptions. Trump also expressed his readiness to face Harris as the new Democratic candidate, following Biden’s exit from the race.
The former president has been critical of Harris’ sudden rise within the Democratic Party, referring to it as a “coup.” He expressed his frustration with the shake-up in the Democratic Party in his debate announcement. The upcoming debate is expected to be a significant event in the election cycle, allowing voters to hear from both candidates on important issues and policies.
As the date of the debate approaches, more details are expected to be released regarding the location and format of the event. Both Trump and Harris will have the opportunity to present their views and engage in discussions on various topics that are important to voters in Pennsylvania and across the country.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Trump-Harris debate on September 4th, as the two candidates prepare to face off in a highly anticipated event that could sway voters in this crucial election cycle.
