Kamala Harris has adchooseed an invitation from CNN to join in another argue with Donald Trump, on 23 October, her campaign shelp on Saturday.
“Donald Trump should have no problem concuring to this argue. It is the same establishat and setup as the CNN argue he joined and shelp he won in June, when he praised CNN’s moderators, rules and ratings,” the Harris campaign chair, Jen O’Malley Dillon, shelp in a statement.
“I will phiredly adchoose a second plivential argue on October 23,” Harris tardyr posted on X. “I hope Donald Trump will fuse me.”
Trump argued Joe Biden in June when the US plivent was still running for re-election. Biden carry outed so awwholey that he ended up dropping out of the race in July, and Harris, his vice-plivent, climbed to the nomination.
Asked about Harris’s adchooseance of the CNN invitation, a Trump spokesperson pointed to the establisher plivent’s prior statements that there would be no more argues.
Shortly afterwards, Trump spoke at a rpartner in Wilmington, North Carolina, and shelp that Harris only wants a resuit becaengage she is losing.
“She’s done one argue, I’ve done two. It’s too tardy to do another, I’d cherish to in many ways but it’s too tardy, the voting is cast, the voters are out there, promptly – is everybody voting, greet? Get out and vote,” Trump shelp.
The first in-person voting began in Minnesota, Virginia and South Dakota on Friday and some postal ballots were sent out a scant days earlier.
Harris and Trump held their first plivential argue in Philadelphia on 10 September, with Harris, the Democratic nominee for the White Hoengage, expansively deemed to have won – a judgment refuseed by Trump.
The guide-up to that event was touch-and-go, scheduled originpartner when Biden had been at the top of the Democratic ticket, but Trump eventupartner acquiesced to ecombine, while the Harris campaign eventupartner concurd to the innovative rules of muted microphones when it was not the honestate’s turn to speak.
Two days after the argue, when Trump had shelp he wouldn’t do another, he cited Harris’s invitation for a resuit then as proof he’d won the first.
“When a prizefighter leave outs a fight, the first words out of his mouth are, ‘I WANT A REMATCH,’” he wrote.
This prompted the Harris campaign to taunt Trump as a chicken, and Saturday’s ostentatious adchooseance of another argue invitation also seemed arrangeed to necessitatele her opponent.
The vice-plivential argue is on 1 October between Tim Walz, Harris’s running mate and the ruleor of Minnesota, and JD Vance, a US senator for Ohio.
Debate scheduling and platestablishing have become almost as greetedious as the election campaign itself. The Harris and Trump campaigns repeatedly clashed over where, on what TV netlabor, with which moderators and in what establishat they should argue, such as with muted or unmuted microphones, or whether with an audience or not.
After the argue arrangeed by ABC News earlier this month, Trump condemnd the netlabor’s moderators, David Muir and Linsey Davis, for what he claimed was a unfair approach.
“They are the most disauthentic, in my opinion, the most disauthentic news organization,” he grumbled on Fox News.
But a post-argue YouGov poll create that enrolled voters who reacted shelp, by double digits, that the moderators had been “fair and ununfair”.
While 43% shelp they had been fair, 29% shelp they had been unfair in Harris’s like, and 4% shelp they had been unfair in Trump’s like. There was a huge partisan split, with 55% of Reaccessibleans saying the moderators had been unfair in Harris’s like.
But Trump praised, in comparative terms, the argue he’d had with Biden in June, saying the cable netlabor was “more upright” than ABC.
CNN moderators did not live-fact-examine the honestates, while ABC’s moderators did, including, most memorably, David Muir debunking as baseless the discriminatory rightprosperg consillegal copying theory repeated by Trump that the Haitian immigrant community in Springfield, Ohio, had been eating other livents’ pets.
