HARRISBURG, Pa. (WHP) — Former president Donald Trump has announced via his social media platform TruthSocial that the first debate with Kamala Harris for President of the United States will be in Harrisburg on Fox News.

He says the debate is currently set for September 4th.

It is unclear if Kamala Harris has agreed to this date.

He posted the following on his social media account:

The first Debate with Kamala Harris, for President of the United States of America, will be with FoxNews on September 4th, 2024, LIVE from beautiful Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

The second Debate will take place on Fake News ABC, home of George Slopadopoulos, to be anchored by David Muir, on September 10th, 2024, at Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The third Debate will take place on NBC, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, on September 25th, 2024, to be anchored by Lester Holt - Details to follow. I look forward to seeing Kamala at all three Debates! DJT.

DJT will either debate an empty chair or an empty pant suit.

Ya, no way the ho shows. She is a fool, fnews would be falling all over themselves to help her. Just like they have done in every POTUS debate they have ever held.

If he cares about the presidency he needs to get back on Twitter x

If he doesn’t it’s because he doesn’t care. All he cares is truth social.

He needs to get back on x as his truth social platform isn’t up to par

Trump is keeping her and the deep state on the defensive.

That is good, as far as it goes.

If Trump could self-filter just a little bit he could wrap this thing up quickly; in my opinion.

If Harris doesn’t show up for the Fox debate, will Trump still show up for the ABC debate?

Wild idea and may not be legal. Instead of an empty chair, debate Kamala using unedited responses to questions asked in previous debates. Trump would respond with his answers.

Copy right laws may prevent that, but it would be interesting.

Trump needs to be filtered and not go “off prompter” from now on. The fake news media will distort anything he says, calling him “racist” etc. and it will take him a week to straighten up the media distortion if the puts his foot in his mouth or makes a statement that can be distorted.

Well played by Trump. He’s agreed to do debates both on his turf (if you can call Fox his turf) and her turf. No one can accuse Trump of ducking anyone. He debated Biden on CNN, and routinely shows up to hostile environs to get his message out.

But by scheduling Fox first, he can either expose Harris by debating her if she shows up or he can expose her if she’s too afraid to show up. That takes all the “Say it to my face” false bravado from Harris, off the table. And when Trump enters enemy territory for the final two debates, the contrast between one candidate who was not afraid to debate and one who was will be on display.

Okay. If he doesn’t go back on X, he doesn’t care about the presidency. Got it. He’s endured relentless lawfare and dodged bullets just for the fun of it.

Harris will run away. The Dems and mainstream media said Trump was the coward. Typical Demscum projection.

Trump needs to be Trump. He can go off prompter WHENEVER HE WANTS TO. He has earned that.

This is not the action of a man behind in polls.

Because he isn’t.
