Trump and Harris campaigns dispute over presidential debate

The campaigns of former US President Trump and current Vice President Harris had a heated dispute on Monday over next month's US presidential debate.

On Sunday night local time, Trump accused ABC of bias on social media, questioning why he wanted to debate with Harris on the TV station, and said Harris rejected Fox, NBC, CBS and even CNN.

Harris's spokesman Brian Fallon said on Monday that Harris' team hopes that the broadcaster will keep the candidate's microphone on throughout the debate, saying that the vice president is ready to respond to Trump's lies and interruptions in real time, accusing Trump of hiding behind the mute button.

Jason Miller, a senior adviser to the Trump campaign team, said that he had agreed to adopt the same rules as CNN's June debate, that is, to use a muted microphone, and disagreed with any changes to the established rules. But Trump later said that he would prefer to keep his microphone on, did not like the experience of being muted last time, and would not do much preparation for facing a new opponent this time.

ABC representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Harris won the Democratic nomination after Biden dropped out of the race last month and said she would participate in the debate originally scheduled for September 10 hosted by ABC News. Biden had pushed for an early debate but ended his re-election campaign after a poor performance in the debate on June 27. Trump had proposed another debate hosted by Fox News on September 4, but was rejected by Harris' team. Republican Senator JD. Vance and Democratic Minnesota Governor Waltz, two US vice presidential candidates, plan to debate on CBS News on October 1. #Telegram创始人获保释 #英伟达财报 #OpenSea收到韦尔斯通知 #以太坊基金会 #新币挖矿DOGS $BTC $ETH
