NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump on Monday seemed to back away from his earlier commitment to debate Vice President Kamala Harris, questioning the value of a meetup and saying he “probably” will debate but he “can also make a case for not doing it.”

Trump, in an interview with Fox News Channel that aired Monday night, was pressed several times about committing to debating Harris before giving a squishier answer than he had in recent days.

The Republican former president had been eager to debate President Joe Biden when he was the Democratic nominee after months of suggesting that Biden was not mentally up for the matchup — or the presidency. But after Biden dropped out of the race and Harris became poised to be the Democratic presidential candidate, Trump has been questioning the terms of the original debate he agreed to with Biden. He has suggested the Sept. 10 debate on ABC News should be moved to a different network, calling ABC “fake news.”

Last week, in a phone call with reporters, Trump was asked if he’d commit to debating Harris at least once. He responded: “Oh yes, absolutely. I’d want to,” and said there was an obligation to debate.

September 10th is after the DNC. Trump will know who the person is at that time. The DNC convention is Aug 19 to the 22. What part of that are you having an issue with? It's no wonder all you do for a living is answer telephones.

So then he will know who he is debating and prepare for it?? 

When's the current VP's debate against the Republican VP nominee??

Trump prepared for 2 weeks for the last debate. Plenty of time for him to be ready for September 10th. Any more lame excuses?

I'm not making excuses, I'm going by what he said, He said he would debate her if she or whom ever they  nominate after the DNC shin dig.. I don't see a problem with that, I don't really get why you do..

So when is the VP debate? Vance says he is ready to go and we know who the current VP is..She could really show her skills and value by destroying that weird guy Vance amirite??

 

 

 

Feels compelled to defend Trump.

You were making excuses though. Trump has plenty of time to prepare for the original debate date as he will know who the nominee is August 22nd at the latest.

Steve, I did not make an excuse, I stated what I saw Trump say when he was asked about debating her. All I said is what he said.. I'm sorry you're upset by it, I'm sorry you don't understand he is entitled to do what ever he would like to do, and I'm sorry you are so emotionally wrecked by Trump not doing exactly what you think he should do. But that's life bud, try putting on your big boy pants and not wearing your emotions on that massive forehead of yours..

When's that VP debate?? Vance is ready, how come Harris isn't accepting??

Just a guess, but they just said that Harris will announce her pick for VP next Tuesday at a rally in Philadelphia

Josh Shapiro seems like he will be the pick???

The Kamala Harris campaign is planning a rally in Philadelphia for Tuesday, Aug. 6, where the vice president plans to roll out her own running-mate pick.

ABC News has learned Harris plans to hold the first rally with her running mate in Pennsylvania's biggest city. While Harris has yet to announce her running mate, Gov. Josh Shapiro has been a strong contender since President Joe Biden announced he was dropping out of the 2024 race and endorsed Harris in his stead

the division will likely grow deeper... sad and pathetic really 

So Trumps a "pussy" for wanting new ground rules with a new candidate yet the democraps aren't pussies for making Biden withdrawal because he was performing so poorly against Trump.  I've heard it all now.
