          Well he is the running candidate for potus, so people might be interested about his rambling; if only to see that he is a nutjob.

            Nope. Everyone who wants to already knows. At this point it’s extremely difficult NOT to even if you’re actively trying.

            To add an inconsequential non-story like this is taking up energy and attention that could be used elsewhere without giving ANYTHING in return.

      The article isn’t “Trump may or may not debate Harris,” it’s “Trump said ‘I may or may not debate Harris.’” Two different articles, one deserving to be printed and the other not.

      He’s in the part of the plan where he delays.

      Next up: legal challenges to Harris being on the ballot. However silly or spurious or quickly they’re tossed out, it’ll be the next excuse for not debating.

      By then, well, it’s too close to the election, some early voting has started, and it wouldn’t be fair to debate now, see…

    He’s never said anything of substance. He can’t possibly debate someone who is all substance.

    He’s afraid.

    Honestly, he pulled this shit in the past two elections, and I hope Harris just shows up and answers questions. Free air time.

    Maybe is a good strategy to avoid debating with her, avoiding giving her attention could be good for his campaign.

        Maybe but at the same time avoiding giving her attention could reinforce the idea of didn’t having enough importance to compete with him.

          That’s Trump’s argument (democrats might change their candidate yet again) but with her gaining clear popularity in many swing states, it’s very difficult to make the argument that “she is not important”.

          But lets say for argument’s sake that Kamala is so bad and unpopular that he is guaranteed to win the election and debating her is not worth his time, why bother with rallies then?

    Hiding in ambiguity, I see. He thinks that by saying maybe he can deflect attacks for not debating Harris. “I never said I wouldn’t debate her.”

    But he won’t debate her.

    Lol. I don’t think he will. He has nothing to win and everything to lose. Harris will absolutely wipe the floor with Trump on that stage and he knows it.

    He’s just saying shit to get free air time, he also needs Harris out of the lime light. He did this for the Republican debates as well
