https://www.reuters.com/world/us/fox-news-proposes-dates-possible-second-trump-harris-debate-2024-10-09/Republican former President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he will not debate Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, hours after Fox News invited the two presidential contenders to participate in a possible second debate on either Oct. 24 or Oct. 27.Trump and Harris debated each other for the first time on Sept. 10. Trump has said there would not be another debate before the Nov. 5 election. He rejected a past invitation from CNN for an Oct. 23 debate, accepted by Harris.Trump and Harris face each other in what polls show to be a tight race for the Nov. 5 U.S. elections.In its statement, Fox said a second debate "would present an opportunity for each candidate to make their closing arguments."Last week, Harris' running mate and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz debated Trump's running mate and U.S. Senator JD Vance."THERE WILL BE NO REMATCH," Trump said on his Truth Social platform. "SO THERE IS NOTHING TO DEBATE."Trump said it was very late in the process now to have a debate.Trump faced then-Democratic presidential candidate and U.S. President Joe Biden in a debate in late June.Biden stepped aside as presidential candidate less than a month after the disastrous performance. Trump had built a lead against Biden following the debate but Harris took over as candidate after Biden bowed out and her entry has tightened the race, with some polls showing she has a narrow lead.In their Sept. 10 debate, Harris put Trump on the defensive with a stream of attacks on his fitness for office, his support of abortion restrictions and his myriad legal woes.
>Refuses to debate on CNN which lets Trump lie with impunity>Refuses to debate on Fox News which would openly rig the debate in favor of TrumpHe's really butthurt he lost that last debate.
>>1351382fox news is a far-left publican though, seattle times literally retroactively retconned their own reporting to lie for Kamala why the fck would he waste his time giving views to that sorta group of people.
>>1351382It's a technical issue. The won't let him use a green screen to hide the fact that he is a puppet with Putin's hand up his ass. The podium is narrow and out in the open.
>>1351388>fox news is a far-left publican thoughImagine being this psychotic
>>1351400they kicked out tucker carlson are you fucking retarded or do you really thinkg its a right-wing publication god its pathetic how stupid leftists are common sense people do you know how to spell that . COMMON SENSE
>>1351403You are actually out of your mind
>>1351403Tucker got fired for his negative texts about Trump and his co-workershttps://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/05/all-the-texts-fox-news-didnt-want-you-to-read.html
>>1351421>>1351404sure he was lmao they needed a fall guy for the "conspiracies"
>>1351382Where does it say scamala accepted the invitation from fox?
>>1351422Tucker is controlled opposition anon.The US gov doesn't let anybody talk about conspiracies that actually matter.
>>1351435Why would they? Conspiracies just confuse and mislead stupid people.
>>1351438Conspiracy theories end up becoming true because people expect them to be true. That's what meme magic is. What the government doesn't let anybody talk about is the shit that actually has a chance to create pogroms and mass hysteria, such as NEXRAD. That's why they decided to nuke the internet archive in the last 24 hours.
>>1351441>meme magicAKA Russian meddling
>>1351441meme magic isn't real
>>1351442No.When people believe things will occur, they modify their behavior in expectation of these things as if they will actually occur. And when they change their behavior, they end up manifesting those things into our reality through their actions. Whether or not our political leaders used advanced weather tech to throw a hurricane into Florida doesn't matter. What matters is that people believe they did, and they are treating them like they can did. And so long as people expect that reality to occur, people will attempt to manifest that technology in our own society to fill that vacuum of expectation.
>>1351447Ahh so that's how you people convinced yourselves that Lord Kek was real.
>>1351400It's a troll, stupid
Why would he debate? Theyll just lie anyway and edit clips to make him sound whatevers. His opponent is a moron who cant talk. Also hes polling at 70%...
>>1351454>Theyll just lie anyway and edit clips to make him sound whatevers.The live debate and the transcript would be available in full for anyone that wants to see the full context of whatever clips are edited. Not an excuse.
>>1351470why does he need an excuse? Can you give him a reason?I think he was on a podcast yesterday where they let him talk, talked to him, and had a real conversation about whatever they wanted to talk about.Thats what the debate should be, be as we have seen twice now, thats not what it is.So again... Whats the purpose of playing that dog and pony show? He can spend his time much better... Like helping hurricane victims :)
>>1351382HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE HE DONT WANT THAT SMOKE
>>1351447Yup, /pol/'s been useless without the Russians spoonfeeding them what to spam.You're a fraud.
>>1351482>why does he need an excuse?Backing down from a debate (especially one on turf that would be favorable to him) looks like pure cowardice unbecoming of a leader.>He can spend his time much better... Like helping hurricane victims :)Then why doesn't he?
>>1351382Why would you have a debate now? People have been voting for a month already.
>>1351595In 2020, the final debate was October 22, 12 days before Election Day. The date Fox News proposed would have been October 24, 12 days before this Election Day. Not an excuse.
>>1351493>Still has nothing but "muh Russians"All this because Seth Rich leaked Hilldawg's emails and was murdered for it lmfao
>>1351599It's a perfectly valid excuse. If you want debates, set them up before election quarter.
at least he admits he needs excuses like a loser
>>1351641Why was Trump fine with debating so late in 2020? What is different about this time?
>>1351604Nah, it was hacked by the Russians, interesting how they also got Trumps and refused to release those.
>>1351644>wikileaks>russiansAlrighty
>>1351641Delicious cope
>>1351643What's the point? Everyone knows how they're voting.
>>1351670>What's the point? Everyone knows how they're voting.This voting cycle is not about changing who people are going to vote for but motivating the base of people who already know who they're voting for to go out and vote. You have to keep in mind that only roughly 60% of eligible adults even vote in this country. The other 40% that stay home don't stay home because they don't know who they'd vote for. They stay home because they aren't engaged or invested enough in politics to even bother. This population, particularly young people in the case of Harris's campaign, is who is being targeted.
>>1351711Those people aren't going to watch a debate.
>>1351716They might not sit down and tune in to the debate live but they're sure going to see the soundbites, TikTok and Instagram clips that get made from the debate. They're sure going to see their favorite YouTube commentary channel or Twitter influencer comment on it. Its about more than just the physical debate, anon. Its the tone it sets, the engagement it sparks and how well it controls the narrative for each candidate going into the election. For fuck sake, one debate was enough to completely alter the political landscape for the democrat party after Biden flubbed in his performance. Clips of him stuttering dominated the internet for weeks.
>>1351732Then trump is by far better off doing podcasts and shit people will actually watch. Kamalol can't even handle softball scripted interviews without looking like a drunken retard.
>>1351435if he was controlled why is he not on fox?
