## Trump agrees to ABC News debate with Harris

Authored by abcnews.go.com

Former President Donald Trump says he has agreed to an offer from ABC News to debate Vice President Kamala Harris on Sept. 10.

Trump said so during a news conference at his Mar-a-Lago Club on Thursday.

Harris also confirmed her participation in the debate and told reporters Thursday evening that she's looking forward to the matchup.

"Well, I'm glad that he finally agreed to a debate on Sept. 10.

Trump previously said he had been willing to go toe-to-toe with President Joe Biden and agreed to ABC's first invitation issued in May.

However, after Biden dropped out of the race last month and Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee, Trump had implied he would not debate Harris on ABC.

Harris has accused Trump of "running scared" and trying to back out of the debate. »

The initial statement did at least paint some kind of proper picture.

Strap yourself in, because Sony has more buzzwords to pitch at you like so much spaghetti thrown against a grim, industry-wide wall.

These are words that have been translated by a live interpreter—but I'm still pretty confident they're downright fluff on content alone. »
