Donald Trump And Kamala Harris Are Fighting Over One Debate Issue: Report
HuffPost
The presidential candidates can't agree on a crucial debate procedure even as Trump ponders dropping out of the debate completely.
Teams for Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are bickering over whether hot mics should be allowed during their scheduled Sept. 10 presidential debate on ABC.
Politico reported Monday that negotiations are knotted over that stipulation, citing unnamed sources “familiar with the issue.”
Unlike President Joe Biden, who dropped out of the race to make room for Harris to be the Democratic nominee, the vice president and her team want the mics on at all times.
They believe the unmuted approach will lure Trump into unpresidential moments.
“We have told ABC and other networks seeking to host a possible October debate that we believe both candidates’ mics should be live throughout the full broadcast,” Harris campaign spokesperson Brian Fallon told The Hill.
