Donald Trump has agreed to debate Kamala Harris on America's ABC after previously suggesting he could back out of the scheduled debate.
Trump says he wants to debate Harris a total of three times, with the other two debates on Fox and NBC.Voters in the United States will head to the polls on November 5 to decide who will be the next president.
Trump had previously suggested he might back out of the ABC debate, which was scheduled before Harris, the US vice-president, replaced President Joe Biden as the Democratic presidential candidate less than three weeks ago, up-ending the contest.Kamala Harris's campaign team says Donald Trump is trying to back out of a debate scheduled to run on a rival network.
In a question-and-answer session with reporters that stretched beyond an hour, Trump moved from topic to topic, claiming Harris and Walz were weak candidates who were already dropping in the polls.Despite that, he lamented that he isn't able to face Biden in the election, suggesting that the president was a victim of an unconstitutional plot to dislodge him from atop the Democratic ticket.
"She can't do an interview. She's barely competent," Trump said, later again calling her "nasty," a go-to line that he often uses to disparage female critics. Harris and Walz were meeting with auto workers in Detroit on Thursday, following the United Auto Workers union's endorsement of their candidacy, as part of a push to mobilise blue-collar workers in key battleground states.
Trump's running mate, Senator JD Vance of Ohio, also cancelled campaign events in North Carolina on Thursday due to the storm.
