Former President Donald Trump has announced he will take part in a FOX News debate on Wednesday, September 4. This decision comes a week after Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democratic nominee, accused Trump of "backpedaling" from their initially agreed-upon debate date of September 10.
 
"I have agreed with FoxNews to debate Kamala Harris on Wednesday, September 4th... The FoxNews Debate will be held in the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, at a site in an area to be determined," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The Trump-backed FOX News debate is set to take place six days earlier than the previously agreed-upon date. As of 9 pm (local time) on Friday, it is unclear whether Kamala Harris will agree to the new debate time and network.

Advertising the challenge, he posted on Truth Social late on Friday: "Rules will be similar to the rules of my debate with Sleepy Joe, who has been treated horribly by his party, but with a full arena audience," Trump said, referring to President Joe Biden, who has since withdrawn from the reelection race.

The post was briefly removed before being reposted with Trump omitting his proposal for a "major" town hall gathering on the same date if Harris was "unwilling or unable to debate."

This comes right after Kamala Harris, in a rally in Atlanta, said mockingly, "Donald, I do hope you'll reconsider meeting me on the debate stage."

Harris clinches the Democratic nomination

US Vice President Kamala Harris secured Friday the Democratic presidential nomination, solidifying her position as the party's candidate for the November election against Republican Donald Trump.

Harris, the sole candidate on the ballot in a five-day electronic vote involving nearly 4,000 party delegates, will be officially nominated at a convention in Chicago later this month.

"I am honored to be the Democratic nominee for President of the United States," Harris said upon reaching the threshold.
