Is this the reason Harris is so keen on the ABC debate?

Back in May, President Joe Biden challenged former President Donald Trump to two debates. CNN would host the first on June 27, and the second by ABC News on Sept. 10. Although Trump had filed a defamation lawsuit against ABC News and host George Stephanopoulos in March, he was delighted by the opportunity to face off against Biden in any setting and agreed to all of these terms, unfavorable as they were.

Clearly, Biden’s implosion at his first showdown with Trump marked the beginning of the end of his hopes for a second term. When Biden exited the race on July 21, Trump naturally assumed that ended his commitment to the September debate.
