President Trump announced via Truth Social that both political campaigns had agreed to terms of a presidential debate on September 10th. However, according to Politico – the Harris campaign is saying they did not agree to all the outlined terms.
(Via Politico) – […] the Harris campaign rejects the claim that the Sept. 10 debate will have the same rules from June. The issue regarding whether mics will be turned on during the entire debate is still being discussed, a Harris campaign official said.
“Both candidates have publicly made clear their willingness to debate with unmuted mics for the duration of the debate to fully allow for substantive exchanges between the candidates — but it appears Donald Trump is letting his handlers overrule him. Sad,” a Harris campaign official said in a statement to POLITICO.
The rules of the debate have become a point of contention between the two campaigns in recent days, POLITICO reported, over the issue of whether mics should or should not be muted.
The Harris campaign wanted the mics to be hot throughout the ABC debate, which had been the standard in past presidential debates. But Trump’s campaign pushed to keep to the terms he agreed to with Biden in June, despite the former president saying Monday he’d “rather have” microphones on. The CNN debate also had no studio audience, no opening remarks and consisted of two commercial breaks. (read more)
It will be interesting to watch this debate because Kamala Harris has never seemed to be that intellectual.
Harris is like a female version of George Clooney, who -not coincidentally- was groomed along with Barack Obama to be a possible presidential candidate. However, as the story was repeated, eventually the handlers of Clooney had to give up because despite all their efforts he just did not have the intellectual capacity to pull it off.


No difference between this debate and Biden’s imo. Her and Biden are both mentally challenged. The competency between PDJT and her is going to be just as stark!
…pray, pray, pray…
Thats the way I see it.
The debate made it clear to all just how cognitively challenged JOE is, and that therefore a steal is the ONLY credible, plausible way he could be the declared winner.
Which is why they had to replace him.
WHAT will be their responce, when Kamala’s debate performance clarifies to all that she has an empty space between her ears, and so likewise it is not credible or plausible that she could be declared the winner, unless the election was stolen?
This plausability issue seems fairly important to them, the expend some effort, with manipulated push polls and media manipulation, to try to make their election steals credible and plausible.
I’m hoping he uses the same tactic as with Joe, listen carefully to the redundant gotcha question, ignore it, talk about the important catastrophes we’re embroiled in, blame them on the Kamel and watch her st….stt….stutter. She won’t be cackling.
^ A thousand times, THIS!
Man, I love him.
How about “2 strikes” and your opponent gets an extra minute of time?
That’s interesting about the grooming of Clooney for President but because of his stupidity they had to go to the 2-deep on the depth chart.
As a recovering wannabe-actor and a fairly knowledgeable movie buff, the first time I ever watched Clooney in a movie I thought, “Without those looks this guy would not be cast in a community theatre production, he was so bad.”
Clooney recovered a tiny bit in Monuments Men.
I doubt Obama was chosen because of his superior intelligence. Most likely it was because of his superior melanin content.
Wouldn’t call it superior melanin. More like juuuuust enough…
He is a Red Diaper baby.
The First Time I Heard Of Barack

Or his ability to hold his nose at just the right “superior” position.
I saw Clooney in his early days, he was on the “Roseanne” show he was the worst actor I had ever seen, and he’s empty in head and lacking any real brains
Agree completely.
Never argue with an idiot They will only bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience. Mark Twain.
I laughed out loud at “given assurances that neither side would be given the questions in advance.”
She already has them and is practicing answering without cackling.
That will be the hard part for her. To not cackle
Her handler wrote them. Dana Bash is practicing reciting them.
The loophole? Write the questions and give them to ABC.
We already know that Biden’s people handed out the questions to be asked. Two reporters were fired last summer for admitting this without permission.
Clooney got PAID for his tequila company that was pretty smart by someone. The microphone issue is funny because it was the Biden campaign that insisted on the rule, and now Kamala is panicking that she won’t be able to use her “excuse me I’m speaking” thing. The plan is for that to go viral. Suddenly they realize the rules Biden insisted on won’t allow it. Hilarious! On many levels. It appears this annoying line she’s used in the past is a big part of thier plan. Look how important it is to them. Trump interrupts powirful girlboss and he gets smacked down! The articles are already written. But they forgot about the Biden rules because they’re not actually good at running things. Plus that’s it, that’s what you got? Pretty weak stuff.
It a benefit to her if she can’t use the “excuse me I’m speaking” because it highlights what a deeply unpleasant person she is.
Someone tell Harris the yellow buses have WiFi! Woohoo ha ha cackle ha
“It will be interesting to watch this debate because Kamala Harris has never seemed to be that intellectual.”
That’s hilarious!
She won’t survive an appearance alongside Trump. I still think they’re looking for an excuse to dodge that. It may turn into a public execution.
If she quits before. Her goose is cooked earlier than later
I think both logically and psychologically, a debate with PDJT terrifies them.
They do NOT want to have Harris debate him, but don’t want the PR of flat out refusing.
Sure, IF they can steal the election, they don’t need to debate her,..but in order to steal it, it needs to seem plausible and credible that America COULD have elected her rather than PDJT.
And a debate has the potential to destroy any illusion of credibility/plausability for her to win,…JUST like they watched happen with Joe in HIS debate with PDJT.
They are in something of a pickle of their own making, painted themselves into a corner with no way out.
If the mics are left open and Harris tries to talk over Trump that would be a splendid opportunity for him to throw her famous line back in her face, “I am speaking now.”
That’s probably why she wants them open, so she can get the opportunity to use it.
Deep down I think the Harris camp will still find a reason to not debate. It is suicidal for her to do it
She’ll demonstrate her total cowardess by ducking and I’m sure a few million. Fence sitters more will make a choice for reality over fake
She’s every bit as much an intellectual as Otto West.

Kevin Kline’s character in A Fish Called Wanda.
That movie was filled with intellectuals.
Perfect comparison!!!
so they can’t have cheat-sheets,but my guess is harris will have an earpiece they can feed her the best responses,its the only way to make her not look too much like the fool she is.
That MIGHT work o.k. for someone that IS bright, that is “quick on their feet” thinking-wise.
For an air-head like her, it will only confuse her and make things worse.
Leftists just love inventing new words in an effort to show how smart they think themselves to be. I’ve got some words for them! The candidate is just the “On Air Personality”; the Biden left-overs are the “Handlers”, the obedient MSM is the “Propagandists”, Obama is the “Content Provider” and George Soros is the “Influencer”! Presto; just like that, we have Election Campaigns just like Social Media and the proles will love it!
President Trump is working hard to regain the WH and stop America’s decline. He’s adding voters IMO.
A few comments below the previous CTH Sean Ryan article & other times referred to PT’s perceived rambling. Is this recognized in some way by the despicable distrustful Harris campaign and ABC to exploit and why they now insist on open mics at all times or not?
Not all are trolls:
Brandons Ghost “…I watched the entire thing, and I’ll vote for Trump, but I got pretty tired of Trump wandering all over the place like it was a 1+ hour campaign bragging session. A question is asked, focus on answering that question. CTH–Leavemygunsalone reply-“Yes. Trump rambled, didn’t answer the questions. I kept hoping a handler would hold up a cue card and get him on track.”
One comment on Sean’s X site-said he thought PT was like a savant with so much info waiting to get out but he overwhelming comments on Ryan’s site were very positive and grateful he was on the podcast. One of many that were impressed:
Self proclaimed nitwit who used be a good speller–Names are the worst “Shawn not Sean” of course. I noticed Archipelago made the same error.
You could have simply edited your OP. Now, you have two posts that make no sense.
Say President Trump is re-elected and his new Atty General moves to quash all of this b.s. lawfare.
Then the Communists will attempt to charge him with obstruction of “justice ” and we are in for another 4 years of lawfare. Especially if the gop is booted in the house .
Most of them are about to “resigned” day 1
That weapon has been removed. “Official acts” includes the core law enforcement duties.
That’s why they’re freaking out. Trump will be able to cut through the enemy like a hot knife through warm butter.
There will be no refusals. Lawfare agents are well known. They will be removed, possibly arrested if AG Paxton gets the nod. Expect lots and lots of smashed cell phones and destroyed servers and laptops.
I think that the Harris camp believes that with a hot mic Trump won’t be able to resist making himself look like a bully, and the Harris strategy would almost certainly include all possible provocation to that end.
Just a quick reminder that no matter what the “rules” say, Harris will know the questions and the order of questions in advance.
She just might say “this is your response to that question” out loud.
the BEST way to handle this. is to take it to the street.
street: President Trump goes to Manhattan, and walks among THE PEOPLE…the PEOPLE tell him what he should do, and what his plans are for America to MAKE THEIR LIVES BETTER.
see, the answer.
LET THE PEOPLE SPEAK.
no more Vance, Kennedy, and gabbard.
we do NOT WANT OR NEED PROXIES.
LET US SPEAK.
God to every state. stop talking…just record.
let THE PEOPLE SPEAK TO YOU.
this is the way
God Bless America
a new day WILL DAWN…and tomorrow, it is US THE WHITE HORSES that ride into tomorrow
God willing.
Amen! Carrying our bows and arrows of truth. Wearing the crown of victory.
Amen, regitiger.
Two things. First, Kamala recently called Trump a coward. Trump should use this to again challenge Kamala to accept the FOX debate. Trump should say that Kamala not accepting will show who the coward really is. Trump should work with FOX to show up and take the full 90 minutes beside an empty chair. Secondly, Trump team should carefully monitor the ABC debate to ensure that Harris is not wearing an earpiece.
She wants the Mic’s not to be muted.
Clooney once said, something along the line, he would not run for a political office because there was too much in his past that would cone out.

Trump negotiated the debate rules to have microphones muted, so that one-trick pony Kamala can’t do this
The Art of the Deal
Video linked in tweet…
Trump wouldn’t want open microphones after Harris unmanned Pence in the 2020 debates by interrupting Pence’s interruptions with her “I’m speaking” routine.
Debate/ Where ABC vows to be fair and balanced while ‘not’ giving the answers to Harris? Please, spar me.
President Trump should send an anonymous care package full of the Worlds most expensive and rare vodkas to kamkams Green Room pre debate..
Kamala genuinely has no ideas that aren’t communist so she’s looking to just gas light and looking for her “I’m speaking” moment so media can run with look at that girl boss she stood up to bully Trump
It will be funnier when Trump is speaking, Kamala interrupts, and Trump takes her line and says I am speaking now.
Comrade’s people are making it look like it is about the microphones. It is really about the cheat sheet. Kamala can’t even have an interview by herself.
I Expect Harris is already printing tee-shirts depicting her as innocent victim in prep for her debate w trump
Just like the one she printed after debate against Biden in 2020 primary trying to embarrass biden for his stand on bussing -this little girl was me”.
I think in debate w trump he will discuss facts policy and common sense ; and she will respond with emotion psy-ops and taunts like she did to biden in 2020
Here is the 2020 tee-shirt still selling in 2024
