Donald Trump Floats Three Potential Debates With Kamala Harris On Different Networks, Including ABC

“We’d like to do three debates,” Donald Trump said today of meeting Kamala Harris face-to-face before the November election.

“I think it’s very important to have debates, and we’ve agreed with Fox on a date of September 4,” the GOP nominee announced today in a press conference from his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida. “We’ve agreed with NBC, fairly full agreement subject to them on September 10, and we’ve agreed with ABC on September 25 so we have those three dates and those networks,” Trump added.

Of course, Trump being Trump, the debates with the now poll leading Vice President are not actually a done deal. “The other side has to agree to the terms,” the ex-Celebrity Apprentice host admitted. “They may or may not agree. I don’t know if they’re going to agree.”

With the VP challenging Trump to “say it to my face” in her rallies the past week, the Harris campaign has yet to respond to the Republican’s announcement of three debates. However, when it came to Trump’s obsession with crowd size, which he came back to again and again in Thursday’s press conference, Harris and running mate Gov. Tim Walz were quick to knock down his math.

In an election that has tossed the rule book out, especially with Joe Biden’s disastrous June 27 debate performance and dropping out the race last month, Trump went through much of his usual stump speech today. Amidst that he repeatedly warned that the geopolitical situation was “close to World War III” and attacked Harris as “not smart enough” to handle the media or be president.
