Donald Trump finished Joe Biden with a single debate and now he has his sights set on Kamala Harris.
But the newly installed Democrat nominee has been dodging the press and the prospect of a debate.
And Donald Trump put Kamala Harris in an awkward position with this debate standoff.
Trump wants Kamala to debate with a “FULL ARENA AUDIENCE”
Before Joe Biden was ousted from the race, he had agreed to a September 10 debate with Donald Trump on ABC.
The debate rules would be the same as the first debate, which means no audience and muted microphones.
But when Kamala took over, Trump moved to change the debate venue and the rules.
“The Debate was previously scheduled against Sleepy Joe Biden . . . but has been terminated in that Biden will no longer be a participant, and I am in litigation against ABC,” he wrote on Truth Social.
Trump said that he wanted a “FULL ARENA AUDIENCE” and normal debate rules.
Trump suggested that the debate be moved to Fox News on September 4, but Kamala wasn’t interested in moving the date.
Trump: Kamala “doesn’t have the mental capacity”
“It’s interesting how ‘any time, any place’ becomes ‘one specific time, one specific safe space,’” Kamala wrote on X in response to Trump’s post on Truth Social.
“I’ll be there on September 10, like he agreed to. I hope to see him there,” she added.

The standoff continued on social media as Trump said that Kamala “doesn’t have the mental capacity to do a REAL Debate.”
“She’s afraid because there is no way she can justify her Corrupt and Open Borders, the Environmental Destruction of our Country, the Afghanistan Embarrassment, Runaway Inflation,” Trump continued.
Then Trump took the high road and accepted the September 10 debate.
“ABC News will host qualifying presidential candidates to debate on September 10 on ABC. Vice President Harris and former President Trump have both confirmed they will attend,” ABC reported.
But Trump expects something out of Kamala in return.
“I look forward to seeing Kamala at all three debates!”
Kamala was happy to hear that Trump was prepared to join her for the September 10 debate.
But the Democrat nominee never publicly accepted the Fox News debate on September 4.
That didn’t stop Trump from celebrating her attendance at all three debates.
“I look forward to seeing Kamala at all three debates!” he said in a post that outlined the September schedule.
Now the Trump campaign is waiting for public confirmation from Kamala about the Fox News debate on September 4 and the NBC debate on September 25.
His team seems to be putting Kamala in a compromising position.
Either debate Trump, or he will take the stage alone and hold a town hall meeting.
The Epoch Times reported on the debate standoff last weekend where they announced the plan.
“If she rejects those proposals, Trump will appear solo on those national TV networks,” Epoch Times reported.
