Kamala Harris has just refused to debate Donald Trump next month.
Earlier today, Trump said that he had agreed to September 4th debate on Fox News.
Now, Kamala’s campaign has responded by saying she won’t be there.
Here’s their official statement:

And, here’s Trump’s response:
Well, said.
The Wrap reported:
Kamala Harris is holding her ground on upcoming debate plans, despite Donald Trump’s increased efforts to get them changed. Looking to back out of the previously planned ABC-hosted presidential debate scheduled for Sept. 10, Trump announced a Fox News-hosted debate Friday – complete with arena-sized audience – set up for Sept. 4. Harris responded to that plan on X on Saturday, noting that she’d be at the Sept. 10 debate and hoped to see Trump there for the originally scheduled confrontation.
“It’s interesting how ‘any time, any place’ becomes ‘one specific time, one specific safe space,'” Harris posted, alluding to Fox News’ famed bias for right-wing figures, including Trump. “I’ll be there on September 10th, like he agreed to. I hope to see him there.”
The Harris campaign has been firing back against Trump since he pulled out of the ABC debate and other future debates, including Harris mocking Trump at an Atlanta rally and saying that if Trump had “something to say, say it to my face.” The Harris campaign issued a statement that said Trump was “running scared” by trying to shift the debate to Fox News with an arena audience.
“Donald Trump is running scared and trying to back out of the debate he already agreed to and running straight to Fox News to bail him out,” the statement read.
“He needs to stop playing games and show up to the debate he already committed to on Sept 10. The Vice President will be there one way or the other to take the opportunity to speak to a prime-time national audience,” the Harris campaign continued.
The campaign also mocked Trump’s attempts to reschedule the debate and move it to Fox News on Harris’ official social media campaign account.
It’s funny that Kamala is the one accusing Trump of running scared…

Kamala Harris is calling President Trump “scared.”
Meanwhile, she hasn’t taken a SINGLE QUESTION since being installed as the nominee.
Not even from *FRIENDLY* reporters.
She runs away from reporters like she’s running away from this debate with Trump

Do you approve of the new nickname?
Do you want to see Chicken-mala get crushed on the debate stage?
