Donald Trump on Thursday ruled out another presidential debate against Kamala Harris as her campaign announced a massive fundraising haul in the hours after the two candidates met on stage.
Trump, the Republican nominee, posted on Truth Social that “THERE WILL BE NO THIRD DEBATE!” following Tuesday’s debate against Harris and his June debate against President Joe Biden.
In rejecting another debate, the former president suggested that a “prizefighter” who loses about is always the one to call for a rematch.
A day earlier, he had said, “I just don’t know,” to the question of whether he would meet Harris for another debate.
Some Republicans, including the No. 2 Republican Senator John Thune, have urged Trump to debate against Harris again.
Harris, the Democratic nominee, said during a rally in North Carolina on Thursday she believes that she and the former president “owe it to voters” to debate again.
Meanwhile, her campaign said it had raised $47 million from nearly 600,000 donors in the 24 hours after her Tuesday debate against Trump.
Trump raised doubts earlier in the campaign as to whether he would debate Harris at all. The two eventually agreed on the Tuesday debate on ABC.
Fox News has issued invitations to both campaigns for a debate in October.
