Former President Donald Trump has announced that he will be participating in a debate hosted by Fox News on September 4, replacing the previously agreed-upon debate hosted by ABC. The new debate is set to take place in Pennsylvania with a live audience and will be moderated by Fox News hosts Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum.

Trump made the announcement on Truth Social, stating that the debate with Vice President Kamala Harris was scheduled after President Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee, withdrew from the debate.
