Trump says he has agreed to 3 debates in September
The Hill ^ | 08/08/2024 | Brett Samuels and Dominick Mastrangelo

Former President Trump during a press conference at his Mar-a-Lago resort Thursday said he had agreed to three separate debates on three different networks against his new opponent, Vice President Harris.

Trump scheduled the press conference as his campaign seeks to make Harris’s access to the media a campaign issue. Trump had previously said he would not take part in a scheduled debate on ABC that was initially set on Sept. 10 between him and President Biden.

But ABC in a statement during Trump’s press conference said both he and Harris had agreed to a debate on Sept. 10.

The former president also said Thursday he had proposed debates with Fox News on Sept. 4 and NBC on Sept. 25.

“We have spoken to the heads of the network and it’s all been confirmed other than some very minor details,” including whether the Harris campaign agrees to any of those dates, Trump said.

I thought the ABC debate has been moved to Sept 25th..the NBC debate is supposed to be on the 10th..honestly Ive never heard of three debates in the same month. I thought its always one debate on the economy and another debate on foreign policy

I can’t believe they are going to let that dumb woman get on National TV even one time much less 3 times. She will make Biden look like Einstein.

Puts the pressure on. It’s not a refusal to do it on Fox. It’s an offer to meet half way with 3 networks. The 3rd would probably be VP.

There’s more. With such an important election coming up they should do more of them so Kamala’s playing to not lose. I’d like to think the future of this country is important enough to demand it.

I’m concerned. He doesn’t need to be doing 3 debates with her.

She will never agree to 3 and DJT knows it.

She would buckle under the pressure.

It’s a win win for him because of She does he gets to expose her3 times, if she doesn’t he gets to say she hasn’t got the skill to do 3.

Brilliant move and hell, I’ll be surprised if she even does ONE.

The “Press" would hide it if she looked like Mr. Spock.

Kamala won’t do three. She’ll get humiliated in the first.

hadn’t thought of that! Good point! But, she can’t walk and chew gum at the same time so that won’t work for her either.

It would be funny if Trump would troll Walls for a debate.
Not that JD can’t handle Walls….just as a knock at Kamala for being too vapid and boring.

Trump letting his ego overcome his sense. 3 debates favors Harris. She needs them more than Trump does.
