0:20Now PlayingFormer President Donald Trump blamed Democrats’ claims that he is a threat to democracy for motivating the attempted assassination against him in July.
“I probably took a bullet to the head because of the things that they say about me. They talk about democracy. I'm a threat to democracy? They're the threat to democracy with the fake Russia, Russia, Russia investigation,” Trump said during his presidential debate with Vice President Kamala Harris.
Harris and Trump met for their first and possibly only debate on Sept. 10, hosted by ABC in Philadelphia. Harris replaced President Joe Biden as the Democratic presidential nominee this summer after Biden gave a troubling debate performance in June, increasing calls for him to drop out of the race.
According to the latest PBS News/NPR/Marist poll, more than two-thirds of Americans say they will watch all or most of the debate. While many voters have already made up their minds, 14 percent of Americans say the debate will have a great impact on which candidate they choose.
