So Trump is scared to debate Harris on a level playing field.

No.

Harris is.

a reply to: DAVID64

Trump agreed to the venue and he agreed to the rules. The only difference is that he'll be debating against Harris instead of Biden.

Why does that require a complete upending of the debate schedule that Trump agreed to unless Trump thinks he can't beat Harris?

You're saying FOX is NOT a level playing field...but that ABC IS?
BWAHAHAHA....

The left is not going to change their evil stance, neither will the pure, good and just people.

My bet still stands that Harris will never debate Trump on Fox.

So there's a change in the agreement.

Good. That's the point.

They will continue to use your good faithed nature against you. Your kindness as a cudgel.

Can't give them an inch.

Trump getting to dictate the venue and all rules of the debate isn't a level playing field. Both parties agreed to the ABC debate and the rules.

a reply to: wAnchorofCarp

We don't know what the contract says. Only that Trump agreed to show up for a debate on September 10th.

So did Biden .....

Yet one was agreed upon and scheduled. Why does it need to suddenly change? That means the one who agreed, is now scared, not the opposite.

totally agree. Biden was the one who agreed, and he ran off scared, knowing his melon was bruised. Trump decided to do what he does best, and try to improve his deal. He did, and now he got all the things he wanted. And it seems to have triggered you all. I'd say that's a bit weird, but I'm sure you know that.

Yet he did the CNN debate.

I understand you need to push an agenda but what do you have to gain by being so dishonest that no one believes a word you say?

No integrity equals no minds changed....

That's what they do.

To their voters and to their peers.

Why does Trump not want to be fact-checked?

It's not the job of the moderators to fact check.
And in the past, they haven't fact checked correctly anyways.
It's the job of the two people debating to 'fact check' each other.

He agreed to two Presidential debates, they were scheduled. Biden was the presumptive nominee at the time. Why does the debate need to change from what he agreed to, unless for some reason he is now afraid? Why does a different candidate cause an urgent need to change the agreed upon parameters?

Why does the left get to call all the shots?

Why can't he determine network and rules?

That was Trumps challenge from the start “any place any time”. But now it’s Kamala and not Biden, Trump will only do it under his own strict conditions.

Why not? The first was under Bidens strict conditions.

Afraid?

Well, that was Trumps challenge was it not? So what’s changed? Why is Trump so scared to go though with his original challenge now? Is Kamala really that good?

Besides, that last CNN debate was completely fair to both candidates. No crowd, cut mics when it’s not there turn to talk and the moderators acted professionally. There’s absolutely no reason to believe the ABC one would be any different.

So why would Trump need to pull out and try to organize this new one with Fox, unless he was trying to set it up to be biased towards him.

It’d probably be in South Florida with a large crowd of MAGA supporters and Hannity as the moderator, asking Trump pre-rehearsed easy questions, will completely attacking Kamala.

If Kamala is so great, why do you have a problem with her debating on Fox ?

You mean she won't attend the already agreed upon scheduled Presidential debate? She will. Apparently Trump won't.

It was an agreed debate between Biden and Trump.
Biden got beat by Trump and dropped out.
That agreement became null and void.
A new agreement between parties must be made.

Trump Not being fact checked makes liberals angry, which is a good thing on acouple of levels.

a reply to: DAVID64

Once again, is Harris allowed to stipulate her own conditions for the debate? If not, why would she choose Trump's fake debate over the one that had terms agreed to by both parties?
