Former President and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said Thursday that there will not be another debate against his Democratic rival and vice president, Kamal Harris.
“KAMALA SHOULD FOCUS ON WHAT SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE DURING THE LAST ALMOST FOUR YEAR PERIOD. THERE WILL BE NO THIRD DEBATE!” Trump wrote in all caps in a post on his Truth Social platform.
The Republican said that Kamala and “Crooked Joe,” as he calls President Biden, “have destroyed our country, with millions of criminals and people with mental illness coming to the U.S., totally unchecked and unvetted, and with inflation bankrupting our middle class.”
All of those problems caused by them, according to Trump, were discussed in the first debate against Biden and the second against Harris.
“When a boxer loses a fight, the first words out of his mouth are: ‘I WANT A REMATCH.’ The polls clearly show that I won the debate against Comrade Kamala Harris, the candidate of the radical left of the Democrats,” he wrote.
However, most networks that conducted polls on who won the presidential debate gave Kamala Harris the victory.
The vice president, for her part, expressed her desire to face Trump again at a rally in North Carolina on Thursday.
“I think we owe it to the voters to have another debate, because this election and what is at stake could not be more important.”
After the debate in Philadelphia, the Democrat’s campaign called for a second face-to-face, saying voters “got to see the choice they will face at the ballot box: move forward with Kamala Harris or back with Trump.” “Vice President Harris is ready for a second debate. Is Donald Trump, too?”
