Harris Campaign: Trump Is Lying About Fox Debate

The Washington Post reports:

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump claimed late Friday night to have struck a deal for a new debate with Vice President Harris, the presumptive Democratic nominee. But the Harris campaign said Saturday that she never agreed to a new debate deal. Harris is urging Trump to keep the debate date he agreed on with President Biden before Biden withdrew from the race last month.

In a social media post late Friday, Trump claimed he and Harris had agreed to debate on Sept. 4 on Fox News. Harris’s team was baffled by Trump’s claims. The Harris campaign said Saturday that there is no agreement for a new Fox News debate on Sept. 4. The campaign held no negotiations with Trump or Fox about a new debate. Fox representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

As I reported earlier today, Trump is demanding that his handpicked Fox News host moderate the debate and claims that Fox has agreed to hold the event in Pennsylvania before a “full arena.” Harris has said that she will show up for the scheduled ABC News debate whether Trump attends or not.
