Trump withdraws from the debate with Harris.

Chapin, South Carolina: Donald Trump announces he is withdrawing from a scheduled September debate with Vice President Kamala Harris on ABC, and is requesting a debate on Fox News instead. This move makes it increasingly unlikely that the candidates will share a stage before the November election.

In a series of Truth Social posts late Friday, the Republican nominee and former president stated that his agreement for a September 10 debate on ABC “has been terminated” due to Democratic President Joe Biden ending his campaign last month after a poor performance in their initial debate.
