President JOE BIDEN and former President DONALD TRUMP have agreed to two debates:

  • JUNE 27: The presumptive nominees — presumptive until their formal nominating conventions — will share a stage on June 27 in Atlanta at CNN’s studios. 

  • SEPTEMBER 10: Trump and Biden will square off again in a debate hosted by ABC News. 

Biden demanded the following terms, which Trump swiftly accepted:

  • Microphones active only during the candidate’s turn.

  • No audience. 

  • No third-party candidates.

  • Fox News and its team could not be a host.
