Trump Challenges Harris to Debate Amid Fierce Campaign

Donald Trump has proposed a debate with Kamala Harris on Fox News on Sept. 4, shifting from a previously agreed debate on ABC. The Harris campaign accused Trump of trying to avoid the ABC debate. The proposal follows a Democratic ad campaign mocking Trump's reluctance. Recent polls show a close race.

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has called for a debate against Democratic U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris on Fox News set for Sept. 4, diverging from an earlier agreement for an ABC debate.

Michael Tyler, Harris' campaign communications director, accused Trump of attempting to evade the agreed-upon ABC debate and opting instead for Fox News to 'bail him out.'

This comes after the Democratic National Committee launched an ad campaign challenging Trump's willingness to debate. Polls indicate a tight race between Harris and Trump, who insists on a full arena audience in Pennsylvania.
