The president of U.Sthe democrat Joe Bidenand the former president and Republican candidate, donald trumpagreed this Wednesday to hold at least two televised presidential debates, on June 27th in the broadcaster’s studios CNN in Atlanta (Georgia) and on September 10 with ABC.

CNN assured that the campaign trump He also agreed to the invitation to participate in the aforementioned debate in the crucial state of Georgiascheduled for 9pm local time. washington (01:00 GMT June 28).

Nonetheless, ABC announced that both candidates agree to participate in a debate on September 10th.

Hours before, Biden81 years old, published a video in which he asks trump participate in two televised presidential debates without the public present in June and September, a proposal that trump77 years old, accepted by declaring himself on the social network Social Truth that your rival is “the worst debater” that he has never faced and that he is ready for the fight.

However, trump proposed more than two debates and that face-to-face debates be held with the public and in large spaces, to make them more focused on “entertainment”.

The June date is unprecedented, occurring before both parties’ conventions officially nominate their presidential and vice-presidential candidate, while the September debate responds to the insistence of trump so that the face-to-face meeting takes place before the start of the early voting.

In the 14-second video, Biden encouraged Trump to choose dates: “I heard you have Wednesdays off.”said the president in an ironic tone, referring to the times when the court of New York where the former president is tried for hiding payments to a porn actress in exchange for silence pauses.

“You can’t put two sentences together! The corrupt man is also the WORST president in the history of the country U.Sby far“added the former president who is involved in a criminal trial in New York and has three other open cases for a total of 91 federal and state charges.

“Just let me know, I’ll be there,” concluded trump. “Let’s fight!”

“donald trump “He missed two debates with me in 2020 and hasn’t appeared in any debates since.”he claimed Biden also in the video, referring to Trump’s absence from debates even during the Republican Party’s primary season months ago.

Additionally, the campaign team Biden sent a letter to Commission on Presidential Debates (DPC) – a bipartisan entity that has established these meetings since 1988 – to notify them that the president will not participate in the debates he organizes, thus breaking with a decades-old tradition.

So the proposal of Democratsinstead of the three debates with public hearing present that occurred in other presidential elections, is to hold two television debates without an audience present.

Furthermore, the newspaper The New York Times highlighted that advisors Biden They want these debates to begin much earlier than the dates normally proposed by the DPC because this way voters will be able to see the candidates face to face long before early voting begins in September.

With the proposed format and anticipated dates, the campaign Biden he wants “that the debate take place in a television studio, with microphones that automatically They fall silent when each person’s time to speak is up.”points out the media.
