Topics for the first presidential debate between President Trump and Joe Biden, on Sept. 29, will include the Supreme Court, Covid-19, the economy, race and violence in American cities, and the integrity of the election.

Fox News journalist Chris Wallace, who is moderating the event, selected those topics for the debate, the commission announced. The commission noted that the subjects may change based on developments in the news.

Hosted by Case Western Reserve University and The Cleveland Clinic, the debate will begin at 9 p.m. ET and take place for 90 commercial-free minutes. The second presidential debate will take place Oct. 15 in Miami while the third bout will come a week later on Oct. 22 in Nashville.on Trump over his handling of the coronavirus pandemic, which has left over 200,000 dead.

Surveys show voters give Biden an edge on handling both the pandemic and race relations. The president, meanwhile, polls strongest on the economy. The debate's Supreme Court focus comes after the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg last week at 87 due to complications from pancreatic cancer. Trump has pledged to quickly nominate a successor, saying he will name his nominee on Saturday. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said he will move the confirmation process along quickly once Trump makes his selection.

Democrats, including Biden, have pushed for no successor to be confirmed ahead of the November election, and that the winner this fall should get to choose Ginsburg's replacement.

Sounds like great relevant topics! Now let’s hope the moderator and Joe don’t let Trump get away with his blatant lying bullshit conspiracies & absurd assertions!

Covid- 19 is coming in again on second wave.

the whole world is watching

IAmSophiaNelson Has anyone thought of just giving him and his crew a pardon so he'll go away?

Whatever...

Biden won’t show. If he does it’s going to be pitiful

47 years in Washington... and nothing accomplished except NAFTA and the 1994 Crime Bill. Pathetic

Why not Biden’s & Chy-na❓

Did you already load up the teleprompter for Biden? Has Biden memorized the questions yet? Prepare the 'fact-check' graphics you will only display when Trump speaks?

beckmansasikter Heja Trump!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Moderated by Fox News 'journalist.' I'm about to watch two senile conservatives argue.

And place a chest-high fence down the middle of the stage to keep Trump from creepy-stalking Biden around the stage like he did HRC. Place Biden’s secret service guys facing Trump’s secret service guys to enforce “stay in your own Zone.”

Will Donald be able to phone a (Russian) friend?

Biden is toast.

Ah Donald has a study guide? His sister said 'lack of preparation'. That was one of very few documented excerpts. He is 74. Stubborn AF. Nobody puts baby in a corner! He will coast right in.. a big fat shot in his butt 2hrs b4. And FAIL! He is a buffoon. Bigly. VetsAgainstTrump

Dementia Joe needs all the questions before hand. Or, are they being safe by just announcing all the questions in public, now? These topics are so specific, you might as well just published the exact questions!

Violence in cities= Kyle Rittenhouse?

I’d love to see SteveSchmidtSES debate prep with VP Biden!

Way to give Joe Biden all the topics for the debate. I never heard of a debate like this where all the specific topics are published before hand.

So, everything

Go Team Trump!

Good for a few laughs

The Trump foreign policies Biden might keepIt’s the type of question that does not land well with advisers to Joe Biden: Aren’t there some Donald Trump foreign policy decisions they should keep, and maybe even build upon, if Biden wins the White House? I would be interested in knowing how Trump got those agreements based upon what was uncovered from his dealing with the Ukraine. Bribes, threats, warnings, bullying, trade deals, or other sanctions. I don’t trust Trump in any way. DJT foreign policy decisions we should keep are like Shakespearean works typed by a monkey in a room full of monkeys using typewriters. Biden may NOT win!
