ATLANTA, GA (ANI) – Vice President Kamala Harris has challenged Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump to meet her on the debate stage.
Harris made the remarks while addressing an enthusiastic crowd here on July 30. She called out Trump for “pulling out” of the debate in November after Trump said he would “probably” debate Harris at the previously agreed upon debate in September, The Hill reported.
Harris said, “Well, Donald, I do hope you’ll reconsider meeting me on the debate stage because as the saying goes, “If you’ve got something to say, say it to my face.” She made the remarks amid cheers from the crowd in the rally.
Harris said, “The momentum in this race is shifting and there are signs that Donald Trump is feeling it — you may have noticed.”
Harris visited Atlanta as she tries to build on a wave of enthusiasm, witnessed through fundraising and volunteer signups since she announced her intention to seek the Democratic presidential nomination, The Hill reported. She highlighted her focus on Georgia, where President Joe Biden secured a win in 2020 by fewer than 12,000 votes.
Kamala Harris pledged to get the bipartisan immigration legislation that was negotiated in the Senate signed into law if she is elected. She said, “Donald Trump on the other hand has been talking a big game about securing our border but he does not walk the walk or, as my friend Quavo would say, he does not walk it like he talks it,” Kamala said, quoting the American rapper Quavo, who addressed the crowd before her at the rally, The Hill reported.
She said that Republicans in the Senate did not allow the passage of the bill twice after Trump urged Republican lawmakers to oppose the legislation, suggesting it could give Biden an election-year win.
Harris said, “Which goes to show, that Donald Trump does not care about border security, he only cares about himself.” She stated, “When I am president, I will work to actually solve the problem.”
She vowed to bring back the border security bill if she gets elected as the US president.

Harris should plan with the idea that Trump will not debate. She should go full bore with her campain, hitting aggeessively at Trump’s downsides. After all, there isno shortage of that with the 34 indictments, January 6 insurrection and also his blatant refusal to accept the 2020 election resultswithout any basis. He has challengedit several times without any semblence of success.

Not sure about the news story. Harris has been appointed, or rather anointed as nominee for Potus spot; did not win any primary. DNC did not bother to check with the 13 million + voters who voted for Biden during primary. As such, Trump has no obligation to debate who was selected and not elected.
