Joe Biden wants to debate Trump.
President Joe Biden has thrown down the gauntlet to his political rival Donald Trump, challenging him to a debate in a video released on Wednesday. Biden, confident in his debating skills, taunted Trump by reminding him of their past encounters and inviting him to a new showdown.
“Donald Trump lost two debates to me in 2020 and since then he hasn’t shown up to debate. Now he’s acting like he wants to debate me again,” Biden asserted in the video, which he shared on X (formerly known as Twitter).
Unwilling to back down, Biden added, “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.”
In response, Trump expressed his agreement with Biden’s proposed debate schedule during an exclusive interview with Fox News. The proposed debates are set to take place in June and September before the commencement of early voting. The Biden campaign aims to have news organizations host the debates, rather than the Commission on Presidential Debates, in order to avoid clashes with the early voting period, a concern echoed by Trump’s campaign.
While Trump has a history of avoiding debates, having skipped a 2020 presidential debate due to it being held virtually amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, he seems eager to engage with Biden this time around. He has been actively goading Biden on the campaign trail, even going so far as to place an empty lectern on stage at his rallies as a symbolic challenge to Biden.
“Anytime, anyplace,” Trump declared at a recent rally, emphasizing his readiness to debate Biden on any platform. Additionally, he proposed a debate at the courthouse in New York City, where he is currently embroiled in legal proceedings related to alleged falsification of business records concerning hush money paid to adult film star Stormy Daniels. With the trial only being off on Wednesdays, Trump seems to have strategically chosen that day for a potential debate with Biden.
