Kellyanne Conway Pushes Trump Hard To Debate Kamala Harris — Concedes Trump Lost Right To His Face
Fox Nation host and ex-Trump spox Kellyanne Conway pushed former President Donald Trump hard to debate Vice President Kamala Harris again — even acknowledging to his face that Harris won.
Trump and VP Harris met for the first time for the ABC News debate on September 10, which was near-universally judged to be an overwhelming victory for Harris and a “disaster” for Trump — except by Trump.
Since then, Trump has waffled on a second debate with Harris before settling on not doing one.
But on Monday’s edition of the Fox Nation program Here’s the Deal with Kellyanne, Conway spent almost three minutes trying to get Trump to debate VP Harris — whom Conway casually conceded “is one-for-one” against Trump:
KELLYANNE CONWAY: But I know you. And I just believe when you see the end of that debate, are you going to let that be the last word of presidential debates of this season, end of your career? Or are you gonna want one more?
DONALD TRUMP: So I’d rather debate. I’d rather have another one. The problem is we’re so far down the line. And also, I had a three on one debate the last time, so I debated Biden. And I must say, CNN was very fair. And then I had the other beat and ABC was totally crooked.
KELLYANNE CONWAY: So why not have another? With your batting average–
DONALD TRUMP: Because they agreed that they weren’t going to do–. No, but but here’s the thing. And I like debating.
And I thought I did a great job. I thought that was one of my best debates. But it gets spun and spun. It’s so crooked. I thought it was one of my best debates.
And they said, I’m I’m the goat of debates. I think I’ve done really well in debates. Okay? Rosie O’Donnell, ask her, ask a lot of other questions that are lying in the dust.
But what happened is ABC totally violated their agreement. And this guy like was debating me.
KELLYANNE CONWAY: But why let that be the last word?
DONALD TRUMP: Because because, number one, we’re winning. Number two, it’s very late in the process. You know, the people are voting already.
I would like to do another debate. I’d like to do more than one debate. The problem is it’s like they turned down the Fox debate. And don’t forget, I had two debates. I had to beat Biden.
KELLYANNE CONWAY: It was early.
DONALD TRUMP: Then, and then I had to beat her. And the one with her was very late. Too.
And then we had a fake news organization, Terrible ABC The worst of all is ABC. I’ve always said it. That’s why they won at ABC because they had a deal with ABC.
But I said, I don’t care if they do, it doesn’t matter. Hey, look, I took on three people and a lot of people say, I think I won the debate.
KELLYANNE CONWAY: I think the expectations for Harris were so low because everybody sees her in interviews. But I just want to say that.
DONALD TRUMP: But she wasn’t great.
KELLYANNE CONWAY: She’s one-for-one.
DONALD TRUMP: She was terrible!
KELLYANNE CONWAY: We’ve had seven of these debates and I feel like you’re Shohei Ohtani. I feel like you can pitch, you can you can bat. And people just want to hear. I think that last 5% that is decisive but elusive right now maybe wants to see the two of you together.
DONALD TRUMP: Well, part of the problem–
KELLYANNE CONWAY: People are saying she brought her best game. I think she brought her only game.
DONALD TRUMP: Part of the problem is this. CNN wants to do the debate. And CNN was very fair and they got killed because they were fair and Biden was out of the race because of that. You know, we didn’t have that debate. He’d be running now instead of her.
And honestly, I think he was actually better than her, which is a pretty bad thing to say. But he’s better than her.
But CNN will go out of their way to do what ABC did. Well, they have, you know, three on 1 or 5 on one or whatever it is. So I don’t think you can get a fair shake. But even if you didn’t, I would love to have 2 or 3 more debates. I like it. I enjoy it. But they’re so rigged and so stacked.
