Someone once said that timing is everything. And if Donald Trump knows anything, it's when to drop news designed to rile up his adversaries. And that's exactly what he just did. Readers likely know that Monday was the start of the Democrat National Convention (DNC) in Chicago

As my colleague Nick Arama wrote, the keynote remarks at the close of the first day were by President Joe Biden, who "by God" did his best to get through a shouty and scattered farewell to his party.

But just as old Joe was winding up his remarks, Trump made his move on his Truth Social account, dropping an update he got tonight from Team Harris about the presidential debate schedule.

Just to briefly review where we stand on presidential debates: Biden and Trump did one debate; Trump offered to do three debates with Vice President and now-Democrat nominee, Kamala Harris, one of which would be hosted by Fox News; Then, the two candidates agreed to a Sept. 10 debate on ABC.

Now, the former president says, Harris has officially run away from the challenge of a Fox News debate:

If you can't read the post, it says:

Comrade Kamala Harris has just informed us that she will NOT do the FoxNews Debate on September 4th. I am not surprised by this development because I feel that she knows it is very difficult, at best, for her to defend her record setting Flip-Flopping on absolutely everything she once believed in, including her statements that THERE WILL BE NO FRACKING IN PENNSYLVANIA and her HORRIBLE Performance on the Border, our “Border Czar,” where millions of criminals and people from mental institutions and terrorists, have been allowed to pour into our Country, totally unchecked and unvetted. It’s called, and she LOVES IT, an OPEN BORDER!!! Rather than the debate on September 4th, I have agreed to do a Tele-Town Hall, anchored by Sean Hannity, for Fox. It will take place in the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania - Details to follow!

I can't say I blame Kamala, to be honest, after word got out a few days ago that none other than Harris nemesis from the 2020 Democrat primary debate debacle, former Aloha state representative Tulsi Gabbard, isn't done haunting Harris; now, she's helping the 2024 Republican presidential nominee prep for the debate. She would be best served to debate him as infrequently as humanly possible.
