Joe Biden Says He'd Be 'Happy' To Debate Donald Trump

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING President Joe Biden said Friday that he’s willing to debate presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump before November’s election, a shift in his stance after previously being noncommittal about the idea. “I’m happy to debate him.” Last month, Biden said that he was open to debating Trump but added that doing so depended on the former president’s “behavior.” Some commentators have argued that Biden should skip the debates entirely this year because standing on a stage with Trump would normalize his unprecedented efforts to overturn the 2020 election, which culminated in the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection. “Normally, I’m in favor of debates, but Donald Trump is not exactly your traditional candidate,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal told HuffPost earlier this week. “Let’s do the Debate at the Courthouse tonight - on National Television, I’ll wait around!” Trump said in a post on his social media platform Truth Social.
