Harris tweeted that she âwill gladly accept a second presidential debateâ and hopes Trump will join her on stage. đ€ Her campaign chair, Jen OâMalley Dillon, added that Trump should have no issue agreeing to this debate.
Trumpâs Response: âToo Lateâ for Another Debate
In response, Trump argued that it was âtoo lateâ to hold another debate since many Americans have already started casting their ballots for the 2024 election. đłïž He stated during a rally in Wilmington, North Carolina, that the timing of the debate would be problematic due to the voting already underway, making another debate seem unnecessary. Despite this, Harris continues to push for a final face-off on October 23.
