Former president instead offers head-to-head week earlier on Republican-sympathetic network Fox News, despite prearranged agreement Kamala Harris’s campaigners have suggested Donald Trump is running scared after he attempted to avoid taking part in a scheduled debate on ABC News on Sept 10. Instead, Trump has offered to go head-to-head with Ms Harris on Fox News, which is more sympathetic to his campaign, on Sept 4. The former president made his offer on his social media platform Truth Social, saying the meeting would have a “full arena” audience and take place in the pivotal swing state of Pennsylvania. “Donald Trump is running scared and trying to back out of the debate he already agreed to and running straight to Fox News to bail him out,” said Michael Tyler, the Harris campaign spokesman.
