The debate between the two candidates for the presidency of the United States, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, will be held today, dariknews.bg reported. It will be broadcast on ABC television and will take place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The two sides agreed that the debate would be held under the same rules as CNN’s June 27 debate, with no studio audience and each candidate’s microphone muted when the other spoke.
The moderators will be journalists David Muir and Linsey Davis.
It was after current President Joe Biden’s poor performance in the debate against Trump that calls began for him to drop out of the race.
“Trump will tell a lot of untruths during the televised debate,” Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris expects, the Guardian reported.
Harris believes her opponent will use many of the same attacks he has used against Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton in the past.
Against this background, Donald Trump said he was “very offended” by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “support” for his rival Kamala Harris, the “Kyiv Independent” reported.
In an apparently scathing comment, the Kremlin leader said on September 5 that US President Joe Biden had been his “favorite” for the upcoming presidential race, but since Biden had dropped out, Putin would “endorse” Harris.
Putin’s comments came shortly after the US announced wide-ranging measures to combat Russian interference in the US election. Moscow has previously been accused of using disinformation campaigns and similar means to support Trump against Hillary Clinton and Biden in the 2016 and 2020 elections.
“No American president has been tougher on Russia than I have been,” Trump announced at a rally in Wisconsin, repeating his claims that Russia would never have invaded Ukraine if he were president.
