Harris should refuse Fox because they have claimed in court to be an entertainment channel and not a news organization. If she does use her ABC time she should post that on a giant screen behind her podium.

She should agree to Fox if:
-
It takes place after ABC (so Trump doesn't bail)
-
Fox airs an explanation, immediately before and after the debate, for the $750 million+ settlement concerning the Big Lie.
Considering how quick they are to point out that Biden legitimately won the 2020 election now that they had to pay out, Harris should hammer the point that Biden won in 2020 to poke the bear that is Trump. We'll see if Fox is willing to be sued again and not call him on it or cut him off.
This is a very good point. If she ever ends up on Fox (hope not), it would be negligent not to use this attack. T**** lost, and he still can't admit this basic, important fact. A fact his lawyers, all around the country, could not escape, in even the most friendly jurisdiction. Some of them are now disbarred because of this. Fox News paid an incredible sum (and lost Cucker) because of this.
And continuously scrolling on the bottom during the while thing.
Read article that she refused and told Trump he needs to stick to the debate he already agreed to on a prime time channel. Not all of us have cable but lots of people can pick up ABC. She said she be there whether he is or not.
Whether
I think you mean "broadcast channel" and yes I wholeheartedly agree.
They have already responded. Flat out said stop playing games and show up on the 10th or I'll use that prime time spot on my own. Perfectly executed.
"We're happy to discuss further debates after the one both campaigns have already agreed to," he added. "Mr. Anytime, anywhere, anyplace should have no problem with that unless he's too scared to show up on the 10th."
Gold.
She already is sticking to the scheduled debate that will be next week and starting that they can schedule additional ones. The whole Fox News stunt likely is an attempt to avoid debate at all.
The scheduled debate is Sep 10, not next week
Ah, my bad.

Trump is a weird, scared, old man. He belongs in the dementia ward of a nursing home, not on the campaign trail. If conservatives were capable of shame they’d realize how embarrassing nominating this doddering old weirdo for the Presidency truly is.
Edit: anyone trying to claim he’s not demented gets blocked. I have no patience for that bullshit.
The racist rapist is a total pussy.

The debate should not be held on an entertainment channel.
I'm sure it will be entertaining
weird
We need these to start popping up at his rallies
Nah, I think the current strategy is the best. They try to paint themselves as some "silent majority", when in reality they are just some odd balls, who for some reason are obsessed about having demented, geriatric felon to hold the office off the president.
They are just a group of weird, insane people.

Waah, I wanted to run against Biden. Waah, I only want to debate on Fox. Waah, it's not fair!! What a baby.
One might even say snowflake
Little. Baby. Bitch.
Weird, small handed, felon, baby, is yellowbellied
Old man makes stupid demands, unaware he looks like the weak orange bitch he is
"Any time, any place"...
I think the way to respond to this is not to acknowledge it. Just keep challenging him to "the" agreed debate on abc. Keep saying he's too chicken to debate you.
At least this nullifies his angle.
I love how all the news orgs this morning worded it that Trump approved of the fox debate as if it was a thing before he made it one. Harris should make him do the ABC one with live fact checking before even considering fascist entertainment news network.
Live fact checking sounds good to me. I’d also like to see a long-form debate so that candidates have enough time to properly discuss each topic. The traditional format seems so outdated and only helpful for creating soundbites.
Trump wants everything in his favour
Which I could sort of understand, but then he whines for years about it if he doesn't get his way. Even my young children get over things faster than he does.
Conservatism in a nutshell.
Bruh you pussy footed accepting the debate, you don't get to have it on your terms, you twat
Go back to bed, old man
Is it the bone spurs again? Poor, weird, dumb, snowflake Donnie
I thought you said she already agreed to it. What a weirdo.
Fogey is in no position to demand anything
"Dodge" implies a degree of finesse. He's throwing a temper tantrum. Again. Because he's afraid he's gonna lose unless he gets to pick the referee.
do what was promised and well talk
How about have it held by Reuters or the AP and every channel can simply pay them to show it?
