Donald Trump, the former President of the United States and a candidate in the upcoming presidential election, announced on Wednesday that he does not plan to debate Kamala Harris again. He justified his decision by stating that "there is nothing to debate."

"There will be no rematch!" Trump wrote on the Truth Social platform, referring to the CNN and Fox News proposal to organize a second debate with Harris. "Kamala stated clearly, yesterday, that she would not do anything different than Joe Biden, so there is nothing to debate," added the former US President.

Trump also noted additional reasons why the debate doesn't make sense. He pointed out that he had already debated Harris on September 10, and—in his view—he won that encounter. He also added that "it is very late in the process, voting has already begun."

Kamala Harris, the current Vice President of the United States, was previously asked in an interview with ABC what decision she would make differently than Joe Biden. In response, she stated that "nothing comes to mind." The Associated Press recalls this interview, emphasizing that demonstrating how a potential Harris presidency would differ from Biden's governance is becoming increasingly urgent for the candidate.
