Donald Trump will not take part in another debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, the Republican candidate announced on his Truth Social platform on Thursday.
“When a prizefighter loses a fight, the first words out of his mouth are, ‘I WANT A REMATCH,’” Trump wrote. “Polls clearly show that I won the Debate against Comrade Kamala Harris, the Democrats’ Radical Left Candidate, on Tuesday night, and she immediately called for a Second Debate.”
“She was a no-show at the Fox Debate, and refused to do NBC & CBS,” he added. “KAMALA SHOULD FOCUS ON WHAT SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE DURING THE LAST ALMOST FOUR YEAR PERIOD.
“THERE WILL BE NO THIRD DEBATE!”
This comes as the former president is continuing to battle the fallout from the debate, which he was widely believed to have lost after allowing himself to be baited by the Democrat into ranting about Haitian immigrants eating domestic pets and post-birth abortions — which he repeated at a rally in Arizona on Thursday afternoon.
Three major snap polls of viewers conducted in the aftermath of the contest suggest Harris came out comfortably on top by a combined margin of 23 percentage points.

1726186959Trump’s Chicago hotel ruled public nuisance after thousands of fish dieA federal judge has ruled that Trump Tower in Chicago, Illinois is a public nuisance and an environmental hazard.
Last year, Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul and environmental activists asked the Cook County Circuit Court to rule on their case against the Trump International Hotel and Tower in downtown Chicago, arguing its operators had failed to comply with environmental laws.
Now, a judge has ruled that Trump Tower is a public nuisance and that its cooling water intake system has killed thousands of fish from the Chicago River, the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Maybe he’ll blame Haitian migrants?
Katie Hawkinson has the story.

1726184758GOP strategist refuses to give straight answer about Trump’s ‘racist’ comments about migrants in testy CNN segmentThe exchange happened during a CNN panel on Wednesday, during which participants discussed the debunked right-wing claim that Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio are eating pet cats and dogs. The unfounded claim, which Trump and his running mate JD Vance have amplified, appears to have originated from a post describing a fourth-hand account on a Springfield Facebook group.
There is no evidence to support the theory and city officials have rejected the claim.
Things became heated when political commentator Ana Navarro asked Scott Jennings, a conservative political analyst, his thoughts on the theory.
