Trump Proposes Alternative Debate Venue Amid Controversy

Donald Trump proposed a debate with Kamala Harris on Fox News on Sept. 4 instead of the previously agreed date of Sept. 10 on ABC News. Harris accused Trump of trying to back out, insisting on the original date. Both campaigns have made accusations, amidst a tight poll contest.

Donald Trump has proposed a candidates' debate with Kamala Harris on Fox News, shifting from the originally planned date of Sept. 10 on ABC News. The proposed new date is Sept. 4, with Trump suggesting the event be held in Pennsylvania and feature a full arena audience.

This proposal comes as a surprise change from the previously agreed debate schedule with Harris, who secured the Democratic nomination on Friday. Harris took to social media to criticize Trump, asserting she would attend the debate on the original date as planned.

The campaigns have exchanged accusations, with Harris's spokesperson calling Trump 'running scared,' while Trump says Harris is 'afraid' to debate. The conflicting claims come amid tight polling numbers between the candidates. ABC and Fox News have not commented on the developments.
