Trump says there won’t be a third presidential debate

“In the World of Boxing or UFC, when a Fighter gets beaten or knocked out, they get up and scream, ‘I DEMAND A REMATCH, I DEMAND A REMATCH!’ Well, it’s no different with a Debate. She was beaten badly last night. Every Poll has us WINNING,” Trump wrote Wednesday on Truth Social.

According to a CNN Fact Check, as of Thursday morning, every major scientific poll about the debate had found that Harris won. That included a CNN/SSRS flash poll of registered voters who watched Tuesday’s debate, who broadly agreed that Harris outperformed Trump.

Former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr, who endorsed Trump after suspending his own bid, said on Fox News that while Trump won the debate on “substance,” Harris “clearly won the debate in terms of her delivery, her polish, her organization and her preparation.”
Ohio Sen. JD Vance and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the respective running mates of Trump and Harris, are scheduled to face off in a
debate hosted by CBS on October 1.
