Former President Donald Trump has indicated he may skip any future debates with Vice President Kamala Harris after she allegedly made him cry during their first face-off. According to sources close to Trump, the former president became emotional behind the scenes after what some are calling a particularly rough debate performance.
“I’m just less inclined to go through that again,” Trump reportedly said after the debate. “She hit me where it hurts. It wasn’t fair.”
The Emotional Breakdown: What Happened?
During the heated debate, Harris was relentless, pressing Trump on everything from his policies to his 2024 campaign’s shaky start. Witnesses say it was when Harris mocked his debate answers—where he famously managed to dodge all direct questions—that Trump began to unravel.
Sources close to the former president claim that after the debate ended, Trump was seen wiping away tears and muttering about how “nobody’s ever been treated so unfairly.”
“He thought he could handle it,” one insider explained. “But Harris just didn’t let up. She was sharp, and he just wasn’t prepared for that level of fire. It’s one thing to go up against reporters, but Kamala Harris… she’s a different beast.”
Trump’s Debate Dodging: A New Strategy?
With rumors circulating that Trump may pull out of future debates with Harris, speculation has begun about his strategy moving forward. After famously dodging every question in the first debate, Trump’s reluctance to face Harris again has some wondering if he’s rethinking his approach altogether.
“He’s never backed down from a fight,” said one political analyst. “But let’s face it—if Kamala Harris made him cry, there’s no telling what round two would look like.”
Social media quickly latched onto the idea of Trump skipping future debates, with #DebateDodger trending on Twitter. Memes of Trump crying while Harris calmly sips coffee have flooded the internet.
Harris Responds: “It Was Just a Debate”
When asked about Trump’s emotional reaction, Vice President Harris seemed bemused by the whole situation. “It was just a debate,” Harris said with a shrug. “I’m not sure why he’s upset. I thought we were having a healthy discussion. Maybe he’s just not used to someone standing up to him.”
Harris’s light-hearted dismissal only fueled the online frenzy, with users commenting that Trump had finally met his match. “She made him cry with words,” one user tweeted. “This is what happens when you don’t have Fox News to protect you.”
Trump’s Supporters Rally Behind Him
Despite the public ridicule, Trump’s supporters have rallied around him, with many praising him for showing “human emotion” and criticizing Harris for being “too aggressive.” Some MAGA loyalists have even started calling for debates to have “emotional support moderators” to ensure that candidates don’t get pushed too hard.
“Trump is the bravest man I know,” one supporter tweeted. “If he cried, it’s because he cares deeply for this country. We need someone who feels, not someone like Kamala who bulldozes people with no remorse.”
Will Trump Debate Again?
For now, Trump has not officially confirmed whether he will participate in future debates with Harris. His team, however, is reportedly weighing other options, including town hall-style events where Trump would have more control over the questions and the pacing.
“Debates are overrated,” Trump was overheard saying. “I’ve already done enough debates. Maybe it’s time to focus on my rallies where people actually like me.”
As the 2024 campaign season heats up, only time will tell if Trump can recover from this emotional setback—or if Harris will continue to dominate the debate stage without him.
