The article doesn't make it very clear, but Trump has yet to accept the September 10th debate.

Harris says she will be there regardless.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

As of last week, Trump has agreed to that debate & a few more. Harris has only agreed to the one initially set under Biden.

Unless something has changed & I'm not aware.

Ok, sorry, my fault. The article sounded like it was saying, not clearly, that Trump has not accepted:

“Assuming Donald Trump actually shows up on September 10 to debate Vice President Harris, then Governor [Tim] Walz will see JD Vance on October 1 and the American people will have another opportunity to see the vice president and Donald Trump on the debate stage in October,” Harris campaign communications director Michael Tyler said in a statement.

Trump’s campaign accepted the 09/10 debate. They have also mutually agreed to a second debate but have not set a date yet.

I can vouch for it, I have never been in the same room with these two.

[–] [email protected] 55 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I too, have never been in the room with both Harris and Trump.

You're not going to believe this .... Me either

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

I know what that means. You're Batman, right?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You're not going to believe this .... I was in a helicopter with both Harris and Trump, and it was going down,...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

This true. Lots of people are saying it.

Tell me you P(A|B) without telling me you (P(B|A) * P(A)) / P(B)

I was going to make a joke involving

but I don’t want to spark a conspiracy narrative on the fringes of the bell curve.

Based on the movies I've seen, I thought the title was implying that they were actually the same person. I should watch less movies...

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Speaking of movies, in The Wrath of Khan, Kirk and Khan are never in the same room.

Korben Dallas and Zorg don't even know the other exists.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I feel like Korben would know about Zorg, at least who he is.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Well, I mean he knows that he worked for Zorg's taxi company, but that's really it.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Maybe you should watch fewer movies

How many is a few?

Did trump change his mind? I thought he was only gonna do Fox News debate farce

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The only debate that both parties have agreed to is the Sep 10 ABC debate - which the Harris campaign never suggested they would not fulfill.

Trump wants a Fox News debate on Sep 4, and an NBC debate on Sep 25, but the Harris campaign will not discuss any other debate schedule until after the Sep 10 debate.
