A debate about the debate may be the only Trump-Harris face-off voters get.

Vice President Harris wants to sub in for President Biden on September 10’s ABC debate sequel to CNN’s June blockbuster. However, former President Trump says the ABC arrangement 1) is a conflict of interest given his lawsuit against the network and 2) ended with Biden’s candidacy. Instead, he wants a full audience Fox News debate on September 4.

Harris’s camp says Trump's “running scared,” and she won’t discuss other debates until he follows through on his commitment. Trump said, “I’ll see her on September 4th or, I won’t see her at all.”

Meanwhile, Harris has taken the lead in the funding race after raising a whopping $310 million in July. Her campaign currently has $377 million in cash; Trump’s has $327 million.

ETERNAL PERSPECTIVE
The debate (or lack thereof) may feel important for the U.S., but will you remember it in 1,000 years? Seeing things from an eternal perspective doesn’t mean we stop caring about our lives now, but it reminds us to keep our focus on Christ.

“Then I saw heaven opened, and there was a white horse. Its rider is called Faithful and True, and with justice he judges and makes war… And he has a name written on his robe and on his thigh: King of Kings and Lord of Lords.”
