Yesterday Vice President Harris’s campaign posted this on ‘X’ –

Michael Tyler, the Harris campaign communications director, told NBC News in a statement:

“Donald Trump is running scared and trying to back out of the debate he already agreed to and running straight to Fox News to bail him out. He needs to stop playing games and show up to the debate he already committed to on Sept 10.”

The Vice President will be there one way or the other to take the opportunity to speak to a prime time national audience. We’re happy to discuss further debates after the one both campaigns have already agreed to. Mr. Anytime, anywhere, anyplace should have no problem with that unless he’s too scared to show up on the 10th.

The last time that VP Kamala Harris was in a Presidential Debate it came in 2020 and was highlighted with a confrontation with President Biden —
