Yep. He's a terrified, pants-pissing coward who is quaking in his boots.
Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign accused former President Donald Trump of being "scared" to face the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee after Trump said Monday that he could "make a case" to not debate her.
Trump has refused to commit to a debate since the vice president entered the 2024 presidential race. The former president had previously agreed to face President Joe Biden, who stepped aside as the Democratic nominee last week, in a debate hosted by ABC News on September 10.
Fox News host Laura Ingraham pressed Trump on committing to debate Harris during an interview airing on The Ingraham Angle Monday night. The former president told the conservative commentator that he'll "probably end up debating" but that he "can also make a case for not doing it."
Harris spokesperson Ammar Moussa released a statement to X, formerly Twitter, later in the night, writing, "Why won't Donald Trump give a straight answer on debating Vice President Harris?"
"It's clear from tonight's question-dodging: he's scared he'll have to defend his running mate's weird attacks on women, or his own calls to end elections in America in a debate against the vice president," Moussa said, referring to the controversy surrounding Trump's running mate, Ohio Senator JD Vance.
Moussa added that Harris "will be on the debate stage September 10th" and that Trump "can show up, or not."
Ingraham asked the former president on the push from Harris' team to debate the vice president, adding that Democrats are saying he's "afraid of debating her." Trump told Ingraham that he wants "to do a debate, but I can also say this. Everybody knows who I am, and now people know who she is."
Trump also said that he believes a debate "should take place before the votes start being cast" in the fall. A handful of states are scheduled to open up early voting options before the November 5 Election Day, including Minnesota, where mail and in-person ballots will start being collected by September 20.
"I think it's very important to do that," Trump told Ingraham, adding that his answer about committing to a debate "is yes, but I can also make a case for not doing it."
