President Trump announced Monday night that Kamala Harris’ team told his campaign she’s tapping out.
This would of been the Fox News presidential debate set for September 4.
The showdown was supposed to go down in Pennsylvania.
But Trump is not shocked.
According to him, Harris probably realized facing off against him would be a tough gig, and let’s be honest—who could blame her?
Then again, she’s dreaming if she thinks she’ll still be in the race at that time.

Fox News reports:
Former President Trump said Monday night that Vice President Kamala Harris’ team told his campaign that she would not participate in a Fox News presidential debate on September 4.
The proposed debate would have been held in Pennsylvania and moderated by Fox News anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum.
“I am not surprised by this development because I feel that she knows it is very difficult, at best, for her to defend her record setting Flip-Flopping on absolutely everything she once believed in, including her statements that THERE WILL BE NO FRACKING IN PENNSYLVANIA and her HORRIBLE Performance on the Border,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.
The former president had initially been reluctant to debate Harris after President Biden suspended his re-election campaign because she was not the Democratic Party’s official candidate before later agreeing to debate her once she secured the party’s nomination for president.
Trump and Harris have both confirmed they would participate in a Sept. 10 debate on ABC News. Trump previously said he also agreed to an NBC News debate on Sept. 25.
The Harris campaign has said it would consider a second presidential debate in October. Both campaigns have also agreed to a vice presidential debate on CBS News on Oct. 1 between Minnesota Democratic Gov. Tim Walz and Ohio Republican Sen. J.D. Vance.
It’s a shame she won’t debate.
There would be so many golden moments to meme.
CBS: "You're considered the most liberal United States senator."
KAMALA: "I— somebody said that, and it was actually Mike Pence on the debate stage…"
CBS: "Actually, nonpartisan GovTrack has rated you as the most liberal senator."
