Trump Agrees To Fourth Presidential Debate Hosted By NBC/Telemundo As Biden Ducks

Former President Donald Trump announced Friday that he has accepted an invitation to a fourth presidential debate against President Biden.

In a Truth Social post, Trump confirmed that he accepted the invitation for a fourth debate against his chief political rival, which will be broadcast by NBC and Telemundo. The debate is far from locked in, however, as President Biden has rejected both a third and fourth debate. Instead, the president is calling for just two debates with terms entirely dictated by his campaign, including hand-picked moderators, the ability for Trump’s mic to be muted and lack of a crowd.

“I have accepted a fourth Presidential Debate against Crooked Joe Biden, this time with NBC & Telemundo. It is important as Republicans that we WIN with our Great Hispanic Community, who Biden has devastated with Crippling Inflation, High Gas Prices, Crime in our Streets, and Border Chaos,” Trump wrote. “This Fourth Debate will go along with our previously accepted Presidential Debates on CNN, ABC, and Fox,” he continued.

The Biden campaign has agreed to two debates with the presumptive Republican nominee, June 27 on CNN and September 10 on ABC News.

On Wednesday, the Biden campaign rejected a third debate hosted by Fox News after Trump had already agreed to the CNN debate. Biden is not expected to accept the invitation to the NBC/Telemundo debate either.

“President Biden made his terms clear for two one-on-one debates, and Donald Trump accepted those terms. No more games. No more chaos, no more debate about debates,” a Biden campaign spokesperson said Wednesday.

“This is all in addition to our accepting an invitation from Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum of Fox News to host the Vice Presidential Debate at Virginia State University, or another venue, in Virginia, to be named later,” Trump added in Friday’s Truth Social post. “These are the Debates that Voters have been asking for, and these are the Debates that Voters will get!”
