Do you like the newly agreed upon presidential debate format?
President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump on Wednesday agreed to hold two campaign debates – the first on June 27 hosted by CNN and the second on Sept. 10 hosted by ABC – setting the stage for their first presidential face-off to play out in just over a month.
CNN said that its debate would be held at 9 p.m. ET in its Atlanta studios with no audience present in a break from recent precedent. Moderators will be anchors Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, CNN said.
The debate is so unusually early on the political calendar that neither Biden nor Trump will have formally accepted his party’s nomination. It is also different in that moderators will be able to press a mute button when candidates run over their allotted times.
