Former President Trump challenges Joe Biden to a public debate:
Over two Months Later:
Joe Biden Challenges former President Trump to two debates, “Dirty Harry” style:
“…since 2020 [Trump] hasn’t shown up for a debate. Now he’s acting like he wants to debate me again. Well make my day, pal. I’ll even do it twice. So let’s pick the dates, Donald. I hear you’re free on Wednesdays.“ - Joe Biden, May 15th, 2024, two months after Trump publicly challenged him to a debate. |
On June 27th, 2024 Joe Biden and President Donald J. Trump will hold their first of two planned debates, moderated by CNN’s Jake Tapper and Dana Bash in Atlanta, GA.
- The 90-minute prime-time debate, held without a live audience, will have each candidate standing behind an identical podium with a pen, blank paper, and water but without any notes or props to help them.
- A candidate’s microphone will be turned off unless they’re answering a question, to prevent the other candidate from fact-checking or expressing an opinion during the answer.
- During the two scheduled commercial breaks campaign staff may not interact with their candidate, but it’s unclear if they can interact with their candidate while the debate is taking place.
Now, just in case Joe Biden – America’s gravity-challenged, stumbling, bumbling, brain-addled, physically deteriorating, mispronouncing, grifting gaffe machine – thinks he clearly has the advantage during the first debate, take a look at how Trump handles an interview where Trump has no notes, props, or live audience, and interviewers who can ask him any question they want and instantly comment on any answer he gives:
