Trump Does Mental Gymnastics To Avoid Debating Kamala Harris Again

Former President Donald Trump says he’s knocked back another request to debate Vice President Kamala Harris because he… doesn’t want to beat her again?

“Lyin’ Kamala just put out a request for another Debate because they lost so badly tonight — Again, it’s like the fighter who lost, gets up and says, ‘I WANT A REMATCH,’” he posted on Truth Social after Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate. “I beat Biden, I then beat her, and I’m not looking to do it again, too far down the line. Votes are already cast — And I’m leading BIG in the Polls. I’ll MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, she’s incapable of it!”

The Harris campaign did not immediately return a request for comment on her purported offer for another debate.

Analysts, commentators and pollsters largely concluded that Harris, the Democratic nominee, won the Sept. 10 presidential debate against her GOP opponent.
