Kamala has been trying to keep a low profile. She knows she’s not well liked and only serves to hurt Biden’s re-election chances.
Now VP Kamala Harris got hit with life-changing news she never saw coming.
We’re only months away from the biggest rematch in recent political memory.
And the two have already agreed to debate.
Now, Vice President Kamala Harris has agreed to debate former President Donald Trump’s eventual running mate.
Harris accepted an invitation to debate Trump’s vice-presidential nominee over the summer, with July 23 and August 13 as alternatives.
Trump is likely to unveil his vice presidential nominee during the GOP convention, which begins on July 15.
“I don’t say anything is 100%, but you’re getting pretty close,” Trump said of selecting his running mate.
“I’ll be doing it in Milwaukee. We’re going to have a great time.”
An spokesperson from the Biden campaign told Politico that they “look forward to the Trump campaign accepting one of these dates so that the full debate calendar for this campaign can be set.”
CBS News will broadcast and host the debate from its facilities.
In a letter acquired by Fox News Digital, the Biden-Harris team recommended holding the first debate in late June, after Trump’s criminal trial in New York is expected to be completed and Biden returns from meeting with foreign leaders at the G-7 Summit.
A second presidential debate would take place in September ahead of the start of early voting.
The Biden-Harris team requested that the debates take place within a television studio, with microphones that automatically turn off after a speaker’s time restriction expires.
The letter also requested that the debates be limited to the two candidates and the moderator, rather than “an in-person audience with raucous or disruptive partisans and donors” that Trump relies on.
They also want the debates to be held without the participation of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. or any other independent or third-party candidate.
The independent presidential candidate complained soon after Biden and Trump agreed to square off without him in the debates.
Presidents Trump and Biden are colluding to lock America into a head-to-head match-up that 70% say they do not want.
They are trying to exclude me from their debate because they are afraid I would win. Keeping viable candidates off the debate stage undermines democracy.…

“Presidents Trump and Biden are colluding to lock America into a head-to-head match-up that 70% say they do not want,” Kennedy moaned on X.
“They are trying to exclude me from their debate because they are afraid I would win,” he claimed — optimistically, given recent polling.
“Keeping viable candidates off the debate stage undermines democracy,” added Kennedy, 70. “Forty-three percent of Americans identify as independents.”
