President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump are set to face off in their first 2024 presidential debate on June 27.
The debate will be hosted by CNN and will take place in their Atlanta studios without a live audience. Moderators Jake Tapper and Dana Bash will lead the 90 minute event, which will introduce new rules to the format to ensure a structured discussion. The first ever debate between a sitting US president and a former US president.
The debate will be broadcast live on CNN and will also be available on several other platforms, including CNN International, CNN en Español, and CNN Max. ABC News, CBS, and Fox News will also provide extensive coverage and analysis.
Both candidates have agreed to participate under strict rules to minimize interruptions. This debate marks a significant moment in the 2024 presidential race, drawing high stakes as both candidates are scrutinized for their age and political positions.
With less than five months until the election, the debate is a critical moment for both candidates. Trump’s advisers have urged him to focus on the economy, crime, and inflation. Meanwhile, Biden’s team is portraying Trump as “unhinged” and unfit for the presidency. The candidates will be addressing key campaign issues and making their pitches to voters.
The Supreme Court is expected to issue more opinions this week, including on Trump’s claims of absolute immunity in one of the four criminal cases he faces while running for president.
