Trump calls Harris 'half a person,' plans debate
President Donald Trump repeated insults aimed at Kamala Harris, referring to her as “the half” during reflections on the 2024 Philadelphia debate and signaling openness to moderating future debates. He criticized the ABC News moderators as biased and described the debate as “two and a half against one,” with Harris positioned as the half. Trump also said he would be willing to moderate a 2028 GOP debate, though he doubted Democrats would agree. Coverage notes that Harris has not ruled out another White House bid and that her memoir has brought renewed attention to their exchanges. The remarks drew immediate reaction and were reported across multiple outlets, highlighting ongoing tensions from the 2024 campaign trail. A related thread recalls Harris’s private interactions with Trump and her own statements about continuing to pursue the presidency if the moment is right.
