President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump on Wednesday agreed to hold two campaign debates in June and September — the first on June 27 hosted by CNN — setting the stage for the first presidential face-off in just weeks. According #CNN, the #debate will be held in the network’s #Atlanta studios with no audience present, with moderators for the debate and additional details coming at a later time.

#MorningJoe’s #JoeScarborough reacts to #Biden’s challenge and #Trump’s response as the two expect to face off: “If you don’t have a pep rally. If you have a real debate with real questions...this is pure political death for Donald Trump because he will be judged on the merits. And when he is judged on the merits, he always loses.”

    Fact check Trump in front of the whole country.
  • Joe, I turn 70 next week, and I have never been more frightened of anything as much as I am of Donald Trump. Not just him but the republican congress members as well. I feel like we are in a bad Twilight Zone show.

    He is dead inside and it’s just another narcissist that belongs in prison for life without parole.
  • @moonfall8972
    Terrifying. I'll never understand those who will vote for him. Very depressing to have idiots all around.
  • @eleanorrice195
    A debate is two people who can actually express ideas. Not if one person yells and talks over the other person with complete drivel and lies.
  • @rbk2855
    I hope the moderator can handle the job. Remember him walking all around and behind Hillary and him talking over Biden constantly when it was Biden turn? He was completely obnoxious, but his base loves him for it. It’s a weird sickness.
  • @newtboys
    It's hard to debate someone who does nothing but lie.
  • @Sunny-vz2ye
    Everyone has grown tired of the whining and lying.
  • @sdc-gr5rb
    Oooh! Have Obama walk out instead of Biden. That moment of disbelief will make Cheetos head explode.
  • If this debate does happen all Donald Trump is going to do is interrupt him constantly

    The fake Bone Spur ( Coward ) going down 😊
