Vice President Kamala Harris Strikes Fear in Donald Trump: Can He Face Her in a Debate?
Vice President Kamala Harris is proving to be a formidable opponent for former President Donald Trump, who now seems hesitant to face her in a debate. With Harris securing endorsements from top Democratic leaders and gaining momentum, Trump’s campaign is backpedaling on committing to any future debates until a Democratic nominee is formally chosen.
Despite Trump’s previous eagerness to debate the Democratic nominee at any time, his campaign communications director now claims it would be inappropriate to schedule debates with Harris as Democrats could still change their minds. Harris, on the other hand, has made it clear that she is ready to face Trump on the debate stage, stating that voters deserve to see the split screen that exists in a debate.
Recent polls show Harris closing the gap with Trump, making the race even more competitive. While both Biden and Trump had agreed to participate in debates before Biden’s unexpected exit from the race, Trump now finds himself facing a younger and quick-on-her-feet Black woman in Harris.
As Harris continues to gain support and donations, her challenge to Trump to debate highlights her confidence in her ability to beat him. With Trump hesitating to commit to a debate, the American public will have to wait and see if and when the next presidential debate will take place, and what it will bring.
