Fox News has invited both presidential contenders Donald Trump and Kamala Harris to participate in a second debate at the end of October. The last time the pair debated each other was back in early September with ABC News as the host network. Following the event, Trump declared that there would be no future debates.

CNN has offered to host another debate on Oct. 23 — with the Harris campaign accepting the offer. On Tuesday, the network sent a letter notifying both campaigns that the deadline for them to accept the offer would be this Thursday.

Fox has offered the candidates the opportunity to debate each other in Pennsylvania on two potential dates: Thursday, Oct. 24 or Sunday, Oct. 27. Fox News anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum would moderate the proposed debate.

Last month, Trump called into Fox & Friends where he blasted Baier and MacCallum by insisting he didn’t want them to moderate a potential second debate with Harris. The network claimed in a statement addressed to the Trump and Harris campaign that the final debate would be an “opportunity for each candidate to make his or her closing arguments” before November. And they referenced a New York Times op-ed which called for Harris to debate on Fox News.

1. translation from fox to English: Donald J Trump and Fox have colluded to sandbag Harris, announcing as "Debate" invite

[BaronChocula]

34. The rapist has already said

he wouldn't want to have Martha and Bret moderate a debate. Coward. Maybe he'll change his mind.

Well, I wouldn’t want to have Martha and Bret. I’d love to have somebody else other than Martha and Bret,” the former president said. “I’d love to have, frankly, Sean [Hannity] or Jesse [Watters] or Laura [Ingraham], you know, somebody else.

2. The Fuck No. NT.

[Comfortably_Numb]

3. I propose Faux News eat shit and choke on it.

[ShazzieB]

36. I second the motion. 🙋‍♀️

[SunSeeker]

4. They won't fact check. Why give Trump a prime time platform to lie?

Indeed, the Fox moderators will push the lies themselves with their leading questions.

[dweller]

5. Oh nooooos

Whatever you do DON’T throw me in the debate patch with those two foxes
claims little liar donnie




✌🏻

6. Not believeable

Last month, Trump called into Fox & Friends where he blasted Baier and MacCallum by insisting he didn’t want them to moderate a potential second debate with Harris.

Last century, Clyde called Bonnie's home where he blasted Bonnie, insisting he did not want to rob banks anymore with her. That Clyde was the victim and Bonnie hated him, she said horrible things about him and rarely licks his boots. Later they agreed to meet at a bank and then proceeded to rob it, Clyde still robs banks with Bonnie, though Clyde insists the criminals hate him and he is the victim and it is the liberal media that paints him in a bad light. When asked for a comment, Clyde said: "The liberals hate pro-bank bank robbers such as myself. I will be the banks greatest protector, look at my record, I will continue protecting banks."

7. Short answer to Fox News

No. Fox is a cancer on America.


Btw Fox’s Greg Gutfeld was saying about 1 week to 10 days ago that Kamala Harris
got to where she is at because she “wears knee pads.” Aka she was giving blow jobs
to become successful.

[relayerbob]

8. The appropriate response in two words

Fuck off

[Best_man23]

9. I can name 787 MILLION reasons why the Harris campaign should decline

When your network has paid a $787 MILLION dollar settlement on a lawsuit where election lies were at the heart of the suit, you permanently forfeit your right to call yourself a news organization.

[ZonkerHarris]

14. This

[Novara]

10. Harris only needs to point out there already is a debate slated for late October but the babyman said no.

[ZonkerHarris]

15. "I'll do both the ABC and FOX debate if he will too"

[onetexan]

18. No. Only the ABC given we know Faux News w just lob softies at him & give him questions ahead of time.

Not only that, they w try to trip up Kamala and fill their venue with RW MAGA ppl.

[ZonkerHarris]

21. I have faith that Kamala can handle them, just like Sec. Pete

[onetexan]

23. No need - now is the time for her to get to every podcast, media, type events.

No need to debate an idiot and be set up by magats. Time is too precious for the negativity.

[DoBW]

11. please madam VP, do not do it. don't give 1 mil

don't give

[KS Toronado]

12. " he blasted Baier and MacCallum by insisting he didn't want them to moderate"

That tells me they are probably not big TSF fans, Kamala should sign up for the debate. FQX will be unable
to get under Kamala's skin while she gets IQ4.5 whining about stupid shit.

And the real blessing in disguise is people who only watch FQX will see her being more Presidential than TSF.

Plus if he refuses to go on FQX, what will middle of the road Rs think of him being CHICKEN?

[Wiz Imp]

17. Yeah, Baier is a right wing shill, but he has actually fact-checked Trump on occasion

Unlike pretty almost everyone else on the network. I'm sure that's why Trump had a problem with him moderating.

[KS Toronado]

22. Pete Buttigieg went on FQX fairly recently

and made whoever he was talking to to look small. In fact I can't remember a time any Democrat went
on FQX and didn't make them look like fools.

Think the reason why is they just want to talk conspiracy theories because their audience is addicted
to them and along comes a Democrat with irrefutable truths and they're sunk.

[hibbing]

13. No please n/t

[BlueKota]

16. VP Harris should say

If Fox were a legitimate news organization, I'd be willing to agree to debate tsf on it, since it is not, however, I must say no.

[Torchlight]

19. Fox News: "You can trust us again! We've started paying back the billion dollar fine!"

For-profit news does what for-profit news does. For profit.

[mdbl]

20. Don't do it. Fox is too irresponsible to host a debate

You might as well ask the national enquirer to conduct it.

[quakerboy]

25. what happens if

Trump doesn't rsvp to the CNN debate?

Does kamala just get the stage across from an empty podium? Or are they the weak rw biased s
Organization we all know them to be?

[JohnSJ]

26. The end of October. NO way.

[Talitha]

27. No. Fox isn't news.

[Roc2020]

28. Trump won't do it

He is still traumatized from the first debate. Even on Fox I think Harris will nail him again.

[Biglinda 52]

29. Fox "News"...

is not a news program. Remember? It's entertainment.

[Magoo48]

30. NFW

[wolfie001]

31. Call it for what it is

A big chance to spread misinformation and lies. Fox News is not news but entertainment per the court filings.

[onandup]

32. Hate me, but these two are pretty good on the Fox scale

I don't think Harris should agree, but they're not like Hannity and Waters.

[kimbutgar]

33. Fox is not a legitimate news source but a propaganda channel

And if I was VP Harris I would pass going on it.

And you know they would DEFINITELY agive the questions to the orange turd beforehand.

[Desert Dog]

35. Ignore It

See what Trump says before any public response. If he is desperate enough to bite, then there are different ways to go. I think it is not worth the reward. No matter what happens, she will not win over Fox watchers. Way too much to lose if it becomes a shit show.. and we know it will. If he had any guts at all, the pig would want to wrestle. Not sure there is any way to win that any more at this point. By doing it so late, they could just throw feces and there would not be enough time to get it out of the news cycle before the election. This could be their hail Mary pass. Trump pretends he does not want to debate at all or debate on Fox.... Then changes his mind at the last minute. Then the excrement flies. Could even be a security risk.

If he does say yes, and there is pressure to go on Fox, there could be a way to make it a split network thing with a host from two networks. Rachel from MSNBC and whatever doosh nozzle from Fox. He would then say no.

Ignore it. Also,, at this point Kamala has something scheduled for every night. She should not have to cancel targeted campaign events to dance for Fox. This seems desperate and possibly collusion with the Trump campaign.
