The former president took a shot at ABC News, which is set to host the debate in September.
Former President Donald Trump continued his attacks against ABC News on Monday as he moved to shift his commitment to the next presidential debate now that Vice President Kamala Harris is the frontrunner to be the Democratic nominee.
Trump began laying the groundwork this weekend to dodge or change the rules of the second debate he’s agreed to, which is set to be held Sept. 10 and broadcast on ABC. The former president has been livid after President Joe Biden ended his bid for reelection on Sunday.
“ABC Fake News is such a joke, among the absolute WORST in the business,” he wrote on Truth Social. “They then tried to make ‘Sleepy’ look like a great President — he was the WORST, and Lyin’ Kamala into a competent person, which she is not.”
Terrified Trump is scared to face a prosecutor.
Terrified Trump is scared to face another prosecutor.
He has lost to an alarming amount of them already.
Literally thousands.
i just kinda skimmed through looking for loss statistics. did i miss them?
He was the plaintiff in trademark, the defendant in campaign, the plaintiff in casino, etc.
Is he getting sentenced any time soon?
Sentencing was supposed to be two weeks ago, but got moved to September while they work out whether the bogus SCOTUS ruling applies to the case.
Sigh
I’d Like to See Ol Donny Trump Wriggle His Way Out of THIS Jam!
Rides again
Is it because he’s too old?
removed so old he knew Captain Crunch when he was a skipper.
Skipper is an informal term for captain. Perhaps you should’ve said ensign, which is the lowest rank a naval officer can have.
There are also Enlisted to Officer programs. Could have known him back when he was just a little Seaman.
When he was just semen.
You really missed out there.
removed so old he walked out of a museum and the alarm went off.
Cadet Crunch.
Donnie needs his nap time.
Doesn’t he look tired?
She should do the debate anyway. Have an empty podium next to hers.
Maybe put an old hamberder on it.
Channel 4 had ice sculptures standing in for the Conservative and
UKIPBrexitReform parties at a climate debate after both leaders declined an invitation to take part.i watched channel 4’s election coverage (also ukip still exists)
In my town, the ABC network is broadcast on channel 4. Funny coincidence.
We should just get a giant orange snowflake. Make the color very close to red and the center an elephant. But also unmistakably an orange snowflake.
An orange prison suit with a Maga cap. In diapers.
Play Donald’s greatest hits. Nuclear Science Uncle is my favorite.
“SIR, HE SAID, WITH TEARS IN HIS EYES…”
She should debate the crypt keeper … same thing.
Loved “Tales from the Crypt.” Great show. Though I rewatched them recently. Some episodes didn’t hold up and some are just really bad. Especially, the last season.
And a McCovfefe
Or a golden calf. Drive hime the whole anti-Christ thing
Lose-lose for him. He ducks it, and it shows the world (again) what a chickenshit he is. He participates, she will kick his ass and he knows it.
The problem is that if he doesn’t show up his base will just say that he’s “rebelling against the liberal media”. Like, would you show up to a Daily Wire debate hosted by Benny S.? That’s what they do here, they tell the base that regular media is evil and then when they run away like cowards it’s seen a strong move. Everyone else already knows that he’s chickenshit so it’s no real loss to run away.
It’s all bullshit but that’s what we’re dealing with here against conservatives. They don’t live in reality and so reality almost can’t hurt them. I’m willing to bet that’s why they only notice stuff that directly affects them; they can’t ignore it when they have to face the music themselves but they can pretend and pretend and pretend when it’s “over there”.
I don’t disagree. However, it always comes down to undecided voters. (Which is an uncomfortable truth for multiple reasons.) Anything that makes Trump look bad is potentially helpful with that small but vital percentage.
Im almost 100% certain that you nailed it.
That’s true but we aren’t trying to convince his base. We’re looking at about 100,000 people spread over a few swing states.
The better aim is to fire up the people who don’t vote and to make sure people have the chance to vote. The left sweeps when people actually go out and vote and that’s why voter restriction is such a core goal of far-right parties.
Debates are great but a big problem for apathetic voters isn’t about who’s better but rather who’s worth standing in line for.
That is absolutely a valid approach. The gold standard is to get both. But convincing the undecideds is the traditional fallback. And why our Overton is screwed up.
That’s it. That’s the only reasonable response.
They should start taunting him that he’s scared and call him a chicken.
Call him a loser. Nothing hurts more than the truth.
Being afraid of minority women is pretty standard for the GOP.
Even more reason to call him a chicken
If Kamala isn’t competent, as Trump is stating, then it shouldn’t be a problem for him.
He was in such a race to debate Biden. Now he’s skittering away from Harris like a removedroach in sunlight.
Definitely suggests he’s not ready for November.
The prospect of being shown up on such a big stage by a black woman is terrifying to him.
Would have been great to have had Biden bow out at the podium before the debate started and then have wrestling entrance music play as Kamala enters.
A grand entrance and not having attention is what really scares Trump. And fact checking.
If you can dodge a draft you can dodge a debate. I mean ball.
I get it. Guys his age need lots of rest.
(He’s now the oldest one in the race so you’re damn right I’m going to say everything about Trump they said about Biden)
Oldest one ever they say.
Convicted Felon Donald Project 2025 Trump doubles Down on Presidential Debate Cowardice
Look at that guy run! You wouldn’t know he was in his 70s by the way he’s running away from Harris!
He’s a bully. Bullies won’t enter a fight if they don’t think their ego can take the repercussions.
Oooooh, don’t you think he looks tired and scared? Trump’s too much of a coward to debate Kamala, just like we all knew he would be
He’s such a removed, he needs to be careful that he doesn’t grab himself by accident.
