Trump reacts to ABC News Presidential Debate performance, says whether he's open to a second with Harris

Former President Trump reacted to his performance at the ABC News Presidential Debate late Tuesday night on "Hannity," claiming it was his "best debate ever."

"I thought it was really good. We had three against one, but I anticipated it," he said, referring to the debate moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis, who at times fact-checked and pressed him on his responses.

During the debate, Linsey Davis asked Trump about his stance on abortion. Trump claimed that some states allow abortion up until the ninth month of pregnancy.

“They even have, and you can look at the governor of West Virginia [Virginia], the previous governor—not the current governor, who is doing an excellent job, but the governor before—he said, ‘The baby will be born, and we will decide what to do with the baby,’ in other words, we’ll execute the baby. And that’s why I did that,” Trump said.

Davis interjected after Trump finished his remarks, stating, "There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born."

Fox News host Sean Hannity asked Trump about reports that Kamala Harris’ campaign is seeking a second debate in October and whether he would be open to it. Fox News has formally invited both the Trump and Harris campaigns to a second debate next month.

"She wants it because she lost," Trump responded. "I don't know. I have to think about it. But if you won the debate, I sort of think maybe I shouldn't do it. Why should I do another debate? She immediately said we want another debate. That's... you know what happens when you're a prizefighter and you lose? You immediately want a new fight."

"Would you be inclined to say yes?" Hannity asked.

"Maybe if it was on a fair network, I would do that," Trump said.

The 2024 GOP presidential candidate also criticized Kamala Harris for her responses to some of the debate questions.

"I always say I've been preparing all my life for these debates. You know, you can't go in like she did—she goes into a room and just memorizes lines, more or less," Trump told Hannity.

Both Trump and Harris received a mix of positive and negative reactions to their respective debate performances.

Fox News chief political analyst Brit Hume said the former president "had a bad night."
