Kamala Harris' campaign has a new demand for her debate with Donald Trump: that each candidate's microphone stays unmuted the whole time.

"The VP is ready to debate Trump live and uncensored," Harris' advisor Brian Fallon wrote on X on Monday. "Trump should stop hiding behind the mute button."

Fallon suggested that Trump's campaign would not agree to that condition, writing that Trump "should reject his handlers' attempts to muzzle him via a muted microphone."

A Trump spokesman did not immediately return a request for comment on whether that's true. But more broadly, Trump's campaign is complaining that the Harris campaign is making new demands about the debate, set to be held on September 10 in Philadelphia.

"Now that they've started their debate prep with Harris, they're wanting to change the rules," the Trump advisor Jason Miller wrote on X. "What is it they're seeing that has them worried?"

Miller also told Politico that Harris' campaign "asked for a seated debate, with notes, and opening statements." Fallon told the outlet that the campaign didn't push for any notes or for the candidates to be seated.
>>
The back-and-forth over microphones came after Trump suggested on Truth Social on Sunday night that he might skip the debate, claiming that ABC wouldn't be fair to him. "Why would I do the Debate against Kamala Harris on that network?" he said.

The Harris campaign's unmuted-microphone demand is a significant break from the Biden campaign, which demanded ahead of the disastrous June 27 debate that a candidate's microphone remain muted while the other is speaking.

The switch likely reflects a degree of confidence in Harris' candidacy that wasn't necessarily there with Biden — that while the 81-year-old president may have been tripped up by Trump's interruptions, the younger vice president will be able to make such outbursts work to her advantage.

"She's more than happy to have exchanges with him if he tries to interrupt her," one person familiar with the negotiations told Politico, adding that Trump was "very prone to having intemperate outbursts" and that the campaign "would want viewers to hear."

Harris better be prepared to deal with Trump's tidal wave of lies and bluster since ABC has an even worse conservative bias than CNN and will never try to reign him in or fact check his lies.

Donald J Trump debated Joe Biden on June 29 in Atlanta, Georgia. The result of the debate was so bad that Joe Biden had to drop out the race. This is the first time in American history this happened.

Do you dispute these facts?

Not the moderators job to "fact check", never has been and never will be. And yes we both know that the "fact checks" will only be deployed against Trump.

Because its not relevant to the discussion? Its you coping over Trumps demolition of Biden.

Yes, it's the moderator's job to keep the debater's honest. Otherwise they shouldn't be there.
It's interesting how you think fact checking is a negative thing. But Trump is a constant liar, so that explains that.

All this blustering just to cover up the fact that she's terrified of public speaking and even more terrified of debating publicly.

Oh well, maybe if she can give an interview sober and not completely drunk for once, she'll show improvement
>>
>>1335159
Funny you say this as Trump is actively seeking excuses to bail on the scheduled ABC debate. Also, is "Kamala is a drunk" the new "Walz ingested equine ejaculate"? That is, yet another desperate attempt by right-wingers to find a baseless completely fabricated smear that can stick?

Not exactly- we don't have videos of Walz drinking horse semen even though we all know he's big and greedy. Kamala being drunk though? Lots of videos, just like Biden being creepy with kids or being senile.

It would be great if Kalama just grabbed Trump by his tie and yanked him if he tried to stalk her around the stage like he did with Hillary.

No. Its a pretty excellent acknowledgement of Harris's campaign that Trump is an excellent at self-destruction. Trigger him even a little and he says the most embarrassing, unhinged shit. Between the weird racist, sexist attacks on Harris, starting fights with Joe Rogan and his obsession with crowd sizes Trump is tanking his own campaign with his schizo old man rants. Harris's campaign wants to give him as much room as possible to do this.
>>
>>1335234
This, Harris realizes that Trump's achilles heel is just mocking him, I wouldn't be surprised if the Harris Campaign isn't quietly recruiting top comedy writers to prep her zingers to further throw Trump off balance and piss him off move.

The only thing Harris has to prepare to counter is Trump's Gish Gallop. And since the media is clearly supporting Trump, they won't real time fact check him to stop that.
