Donald Trump and Joe Biden are jumping at the chance to debate one another but the Commission on Presidential Debates is pumping the brakes.
Trump’s campaign blasted the Commission on Presidential Debates this week after the organization said that they are sticking to kicking off debates in early September despite calls for the schedule to be moved up.
Trump campaign managers Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles released a statement in response to the CPB saying they will not apply their “criteria” or send invitations to “qualified” candidates until the fall by extending an invitation to every television network that may be interested in setting up their own event.
Read the full statement below:
“The Presidential Debate Commission’s schedule does not begin until after millions of Americans will have already cast their ballots. This is unacceptable, and by refusing to move up the debates, they are doing a grave disservice to the American public who deserve to hear from both candidates before voting begins. President Trump has stated he will debate Joe Biden anytime, anywhere, anyplace, and Joe Biden himself just agreed to debate.
“We are committed to making this happen with or without the Presidential Debate Commission. We extend an invitation to every television network in America that wishes to host a debate, and we once again call on Joe Biden’s team to work with us to set one up as soon as possible. The American people deserve it.”
— Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles
The requests for a schedule change follow President Biden recently telling SiriusXM’s Howard Stern that he’s “happy” to debate his likely November opponent.
“I don’t know when. I’m happy to debate him,” the president said.
Trump responded to Biden’s interview by taking to Truth Social, saying he wanted a debate “ANYWHERE, ANYTIME, ANYPLACE.”
god and his globalists and his demonrat criminal party and his rino criminal party and all of his CRIMINAL organizations better start writing their questions and answers for their globalist puppet, god worshiping, chester biden so he can practice reading the answers for months . . . . .
What story is Biden going to tell, his son died in World war 2, Gulf war, or maybe in the hospital! You guess. Biden going to tell the American people that everything he did against the American people is President Trump fault? Or may tell us his staff wouldn’t let him say what he wanted to say. He going admitted to that he is China number one spy, Hunter is a liar, druggies , took money from the enemies of America for his father! How he screwed around with Jill while she was still married, how about destroying America energy for China, letting illegals and terrorists to vote for him in the election in November, how his staff calls him Mr poopy pants and fights who won’t change his diaper, when he went to see the Pope and crapping his pants, farted in front of the Queen of England, abusing children, raping women. Should I go on? Biden has been a loser and liar his whole life. He has done nothing good for America. Biden is the biggest racist! He has insulted black people for 50 years! He show them no respect. How can he say you not black enough if you don’t vote for me? Really Biden ,you are a evil old cockroach! What have you done for America ? Nothing but make everything miserable, divide the country more just like the other fake president Obama. Money hungry loser! You are now starving the American children and family all the while you hand money to the freeloader illegals so are bringing diseases and criminals and terrorists with them. Biden ,you are a loser, Karma will be visiting you. But your mind is too gone for you to understand anything anyone said.
Contrary to what THEY believe, the Presidential Debate Commission has no actual authority. i doubt it will happen, but both campaigns could agree to a debate whenever they wanted, and the ONLY recourse available to the Presidential Debate Commission would be to not schedule debates themselves.
