Debate Debate

   What excuse will Donald Trump find to not debate Kamala Harris?
   Already, there have been several challenges that she is not eligible because the original agreement was with Joe Biden, who dropped out of the presidential race. As vice president, Harris stepped in and took the nomination.
   But she was not the original candidate, the argument goes, so the arrangement should be rearranged. Harris has a strong background as prosecutor and as a member of Congress.
   Trump's debate experience is a few encounters with Joe Biden and with Hillary Clinton, in both of which he ignored the rules and repeatedly interrupted the other person's comments.
   Whether he can escape challenges by the more competitive Kamala Harris is an open question.
   Overall, Trump's reputation indicates that he is more concerned with domination than with discussion.
   Whether he will be able to dominate Harris verbally is an open question.
