The Facts
Republican candidate Donald Trump on Wednesday agreed to debate Pres. Joe Biden in June and September, calling him “the WORST debater I have ever faced.”
Former Pres. Trump posted on Truth Social he was "ready and willing to Debate Crooked Joe," and that he'd want more than the two rounds Biden has proposed.
The Spin
Trump sees a debate with Biden as an opportunity to hold Biden accountable, offer a contrast in vision, and appeal to suburban women and minority voters, particularly on issues like immigration and economic security. Despite the expected contentiousness, a debate could provide voters a clear contrast between the two candidates.
