Joe Biden’s campaign agrees to three scheduled debates with Pres. Trump this fall, and criticizes what it calls Trump’s shifting stance on how many debates in which he's willing to participate.
Conversations about the upcoming presidential debates reignited following a push from President Trump's reelection campaign to increase the number of presidential debates this fall, tapping Rudy Giuliani to lead the effort with the goal of also moving up the debates and having a hand in picking the moderators, multiple sources confirmed to ABC News last week.
In her Monday letter, O’Malley Dillon needled Trump as a candidate that is “trailing badly in the polls” and “desperate to change the subject from his failed leadership of the country.” “Nothing should prevent the conduct of debates between Joe Biden and Donald Trump on these dates; again, we do not want to provide President Trump with any excuses for not debating,” O’Malley Dillon stressed in the letter.
“During his primary campaign, Vice President Biden welcomed direct questions from uncommitted voters on a frequent basis, and we think it is time that President Trump faced such questioning himself. We know that voters have many, many questions for the President,” O’Malley Dillon wrote.The Monday letter is the second debate-related volley the Biden campaign has issued in the last week since reports of the Trump campaign push for more debates surfaced.
