(CNN) --- After Vice President Kamala Harris accused former President Donald Trump of "backpedaling" on a debate, the Trump campaign said Thursday it would not commit to any future debates until the Democratic Party formally chooses a nominee.
President Joe Biden's decision to step down from the Democratic ticket on Sunday threw previous debate plans into doubt.
While the Biden and Trump campaigns had agreed to a debate hosted by ABC on September 10, it is unclear if it will go on as planned.
"I have agreed to the previously agreed upon September 10 debate, he agreed to that previously," Harris told reporters after landing at Joint Base Andrews Thursday.
"Now it appears he's backpedaling, but I'm ready. And I think that the voters deserve to see the split screen that exists in this race on a debate stage and so, I'm ready. Let's go."
Steven Cheung, Trump's campaign communications director, said in a statement late Tuesday that it "would be inappropriate to schedule things with Harris because Democrats very well could still change their minds," since Harris is only the party's presumptive nominee.

C'mon, you can still lie ad infinitum and insult aplenty, no practice necessary. Are you afraid you need more time to come up with 'catchy' insults for your opponent? This is so revealing of all we already know about you, orange $%^&*!
Maybe you can bring up sharks, showers, batteries and the late, great,.... oh hell, we've heard your drivel too damn many times. STFU.

I would love to see TFG debate Kamala Harris and these attacks may help.
