Harris and Trump to Debate Twice in Fall

Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump will participate in two presidential debates, with the first scheduled for September 10, 2024, at the National Constitution Center and the second in October on an unspecified date and network. Trump has proposed three debates, including one on September 4 with Fox News and another on September 25 with NBC, but Harris has not agreed to these. The Harris campaign claims Trump accepted their proposal for three debates, but Trump's team denies this, insisting they only agreed to the two specific ones. Both candidates have faced criticism, Harris for avoiding media interactions and Trump for his economic policies, which Harris's campaign argues would harm middle-class families. This debate series marks the first time Harris and Trump will face each other directly on the debate stage.
