Former advisor on why Kamala Harris is ‘concerned’ to debate Donald Trump

3 Agu 2024
Former Trump senior advisor Christian Whiton has weighed in on why US presidential candidates Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are at odds over their first head-to-head debate.

The Harris campaign is pushing for a debate to take place on ABC News but Trump says the ABC debate has been “terminated”.

Instead, the former US president is pushing for a Fox News debate with Ms Harris on September 4.

“I don't know why Harris is concerned,” Mr Whiton said.

“The two debate moderators who are proposed are considered very fair and frankly would throw some hard balls at Donald Trump.

“So I think Kamala Harris, they're trying to pull a Biden, they're trying to see if she can pull ahead in the polls with the help of the media and by not exposing yourself to the public.”
