President Biden indicated Friday that hes willing to debate former President Trump ahead of Novembers election. I am, somewhere. I dont know when, but I am happy to debate him, Biden told Howard Stern on his radio show when asked about the prospect.
Stern suggested to Biden that if he were standing on a stage next to Trump, he would say to the audience, Find me 11,000 votes so I can win the election, a reference to a phone call Trump made to Georgias secretary of state after losing the 2020 election. What are we debating? Stern asked rhetorically, adding that he was astonished so many Americans still supported the former president.
Biden joined Stern, the nationally recognized shock jock, for a live interview Friday in his New York City studio. Biden and his campaign have largely avoided directly addressing the prospect of debates with Trump, even as the former president has insisted he will debate Biden as many times as possible before Novembers election.
There are three presidential debates scheduled for the 2024 cycle, beginning in September, as well as one vice presidential debate scheduled.
