'Maybe If I’m in the Right Mood': Trump Makes U-Turn, Hints at Another Debate with Harris

Washington: Donald Trump makes another u-turn on his stance saying that he might reconsider a 'second debate' with Vice President Kamala Harris, "if he got in the right mood," CNN reported. The former US President also mentioned that his stance on a presidential debate with Harris could change, but added that nothing was certain.

"I did great with the debates, and I think they've answered everything. But maybe if I got in the right mood, I don't know," Trump said.

"Right now, I'm leading," he asserted.

When asked by the media what conditions would prompt him to hold another debate, Trump said, "I wouldn’t need anything. I could do it tomorrow, but I’ve already done two debates," referring to his past debate with President Joe Biden a few months back.

The possibility of a second debate between US presidential candidates was shut down on Thursday after Trump announced in a post on X that he would not engage in another debate with Vice President Kamala Harris. In the presidential debate by ABC News, Trump called the face-off a 'Three on One.'

Hours after the debate, while some polls suggested otherwise, Trump maintained that he had emerged victorious in the face-off discussion.

'Harris, a Prizefighter'

"When a prizefighter loses a fight, the first words out of his mouth are, 'I WANT A REMATCH'. Polls clearly show that I won the debate against Comrade Kamala Harris, the Democrats' Radical Left Candidate, on Tuesday night, and she immediately called for a Second Debate," Trump posted on his social media Truth Social.

The Republican presidential candidate claimed that subjects like "immigration" and "inflation" were covered "in great detail" both in debates with against Harris and Biden.

Launching a scathing attack on the Biden-Harris administration, Trump said that they have destroyed the country.

"She and Crooked Joe have destroyed our country, with millions of criminals and mentally deranged people pouring into the USA, totally unchecked and unvetted, and with inflation bankrupting our middle class. Everyone knows this and all of the other problems caused by Kamala and Joe. It was discussed in great detail during the first debate with Joe, and the second debate with Comrade Harris," the former US President said.

He further slammed Harris, saying that she should focus on what should have been done during the four years. "She was a no-show at the Fox debate and refused to do NBC & CBS. KAMALA SHOULD FOCUS ON WHAT SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE DURING THE LAST ALMOST FOUR YEAR PERIOD. THERE WILL BE NO THIRD DEBATE!"

Both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are the official presidential candidates of their respective parties after they accepted the nomination at the conventions earlier this year. The elections are set to be on November 05, 2024.
