There isn’t going to be another debate between former President Donald J. Trump and Kamala Harris, even on Fox News which was hoping to host the event at the end of the month.

On Wednesday, the conservative network extended the invitation for the two to participate in its debate which would be moderated by Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum and held on either Oct. 24 or Oct. 27, a final chance for voters to see the candidates head-to-head just before the election.

“As made clear in the New York Times on Monday: ‘Harris Should Offer to Debate Trump Again – On Fox’ — this would present an opportunity for each candidate to make his or her closing argument,” Fox News Media President Jay Wallace said in a statement, referring to the paper’s call for Harris to agree to debate on the network.

“We’re including proposed criteria and format, which mirror those of the CNN & ABC debates; as well as data on our broad audience reach,” Wallace added. “We appreciate your consideration and look forward to the opportunity to foster informed political dialogue at this pivotal moment for our nation.”

It is a debate desperately needed by the reeling Harris who had already refused the network’s proposed debate in September and is now in panic mode after her media interview blitz turned into a dumpster fire.

But there will be no lifeline for Harris because Trump slammed the door on another debate, firmly stating: “There will be no rematch!”

I WON THE LAST TWO DEBATES, ONE WITH CROOKED JOE, THE OTHER WITH LYIN’ KAMALA. I ACCEPTED THE FOX-NEWS INVITATION TO DEBATE KAMALA ON SEPTEMBER 4TH, BUT SHE TURNED IT DOWN. JD VANCE EASILY WON HIS DEBATE WITH TAMPON TIM WALZ, WHO CALLED HIMSELF A KNUCKLEHEAD! I AM ALSO LEADING IN…

“I WON THE LAST TWO DEBATES, ONE WITH CROOKED JOE, THE OTHER WITH LYIN’ KAMALA. I ACCEPTED THE FOX-NEWS INVITATION TO DEBATE KAMALA ON SEPTEMBER 4TH, BUT SHE TURNED IT DOWN. JD VANCE EASILY WON HIS DEBATE WITH TAMPON TIM WALZ, WHO CALLED HIMSELF A KNUCKLEHEAD! I AM ALSO LEADING IN THE POLLS, WITH THE LEAD GETTING BIGGER BY THE DAY – AND LEADING IN ALL SWING STATES,” Trump wrote in a Wednesday evening post to Truth Social.

“THE FIRST THING A PRIZEFIGHTER DOES WHEN HE LOSES A FIGHT IS SAY THAT HE ‘DEMANDS A REMATCH.’ IT IS VERY LATE IN THE PROCESS, VOTING HAS ALREADY BEGUN – THERE WILL BE NO REMATCH! BESIDES, KAMALA STATED CLEARLY, YESTERDAY, THAT SHE WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING DIFFERENT THAN JOE BIDEN, SO THERE IS NOTHING TO DEBATE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER! DONALD J. TRUMP,” the former president added.

The first debate between Trump and Harris was an unfair three-on-one fight that was blatantly rigged in Harris’ favor. Moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis repeatedly tripped Trump up with “fact-checks” while allowing Harris to repeatedly lie without once calling her out, and Trump still got the better of her.

Fox News would have been a much fairer forum. Harris already had her chance to accept the earlier debate but refused to appear in an environment that couldn’t be carefully controlled by her allies.
