Trump rejects more debates with Harris

Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that he will not participate in another debate against Kamala Harris before the November 5th presidential election. Trump claims he won the Tuesday debate against Harris, accusing the ABC debate moderators of unfairness. However, a recent poll by Ipsos presented by Reuters shows that 53% of voters who heard something about the Tuesday debate believe Harris won, compared to 24% for Trump. Harris’s campaign expressed willingness for more debates, which Trump sees as an admission of defeat. Commentators and analysts generally agreed that Harris was more successful in the Tuesday debate, contrasting with June when Joe Biden was criticized for age-related performance issues, leading to his withdrawal on July 21st in favor of Harris.
