Harris plans to troll Trump over second debate during Alabama football game

Source: CNN Politics

Published 12:00 PM EDT, Sat September 28, 2024


CNN — When former President Donald Trump looks up from his seat in Bryant-Denny Stadium Saturday night during the Alabama-Georgia football game, he may see more than just 100,000 fans watching a high-stakes college football showdown. That’s because Vice President Kamala Harris plans to troll her opponent over his refusal to debate her for a second time — from the skies.

The Harris campaign has arranged to have a small plane fly over Tuscaloosa during the game with a banner declaring, “Trump’s Punting on 2nd Debate.”

It’s a challenge that won’t just be visible to those cheering on the Crimson Tide or the Georgia Bulldogs from the stands, a campaign official tells CNN. The Harris campaign will also air a national ad during one of the most highly anticipated games of college football where she calls on the former president to meet her on the debate stage one more time.

“Winners never back down from a challenge,” the ad’s narrator says. “Champions know it’s any time, any place. But losers, they whine and waffle and take their ball home.”

Bret Baier: Trump, not Harris, the ‘holdup’ on Fox News debate

by Dominick Mastrangelo - 09/25/24 10:17 AM ET


Fox News anchor Bret Baier said former President Trump, not Vice President Harris, is keeping his network from hosting a second debate between the two candidates before Election Day.

“The latest is, I actually believe — this is me talking — that the Harris campaign would do a Fox debate, if the former president has come to the conclusion that there really shouldn’t be another debate,” the anchor said this week during an appearance on conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt’s program.

“Now, his reasoning, don’t know. I always thought that it would be like a bug zapper in the backyard for the former president in that he couldn’t get away from the light of 70 million viewers and that he would have to eventually, just knowing him, you know, do it if it was on Fox and something he could agree to,” Baier said.

Baier, who is regularly in contact with both campaigns, said he is “getting the sense from him [Trump] and the campaign that they aren’t moving past it, and really the holdup is not the Harris campaign and Fox. It is the former president.” Baier’s comments were first highlighted by The Daily Caller.

As well as there being a flight restriction in the area because tRump is there. I'm pretty sure the banner tow isn't happening. Nice idea though.
