    Trump: “I am chickening out of the debate with Harris, and trying to force it onto a right-wing propaganda network that won’t let me lose.”

    New York Times: “Trump has accepted the invitation to debate Harris.”

    No he didn’t, you fucking hacks. How the fuck does one accept their own invitation? He wasn’t invited to shit, he burned his invitation and is demanding Harris play a new game.

    Fuck Trump for being a cowardly weasel, and fuck the New York Times for this bullshit narrative.

      Did the headline change or something? I don’t think NYT said it’s an acceptance

        It says “Trump agrees”. I clicked on it thinking it was a done deal but it’s very much not. It’s misleading.

        Edit- they changed it on the site. But damage is already done to people who just see the original headline and don’t read into it.

          I asked my question because the NYT headline that I personally saw didn’t say “Trump agrees,” and I wanted to verify whether that was the actual headline or an interpretation of it.
