President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump have both accepted CNN invitation to debate on June 27th.
The network put out a press release saying that the debate would take place at their studios in Atlanta without an audience. The moderators will be named at a later date.
The two also agreed to a debate on ABC which will take place September 10th.
Earlier on Wednesday, the President took to 'X' and fired the first shot.
In recent weeks, Biden has been coy about doing these debates, at one time saying he would only do one if Trump "behaves." He also told Howard Stern he would debate the former President
The former President responded on Truth Social:
"Crooked Joe Biden is the WORST debater I have ever faced - He can’t put two sentences together! Crooked is also the WORST President in the history of the United States, by far. It’s time for a debate so that he can explain to the American People his highly destructive Open Border Policy, new and ridiculous EV Mandates, the allowance of Crushing Inflation, High Taxes, and his really WEAK Foreign Policy, which is allowing the World to “Catch on Fire.” I am Ready and Willing to Debate Crooked Joe at the two proposed times in June and September. I would strongly recommend more than two debates and, for excitement purposes, a very large venue, although Biden is supposedly afraid of crowds - That’s only because he doesn’t get them. Just tell me when, I’ll be there. “Let’s get ready to Rumble!!!”
