Two debates between President Joe Biden and Donald Trump have been solidified so far. The first is slated for June 27 on CNN, and the second will be hosted by ABC on Tuesday, September 10.

Both debates will take place before the already-scheduled general election debates, the schedule of which is outlined below. CNN boss Mark Thompson announced the June 27 debate — the earliest debate in a presidential campaign in history — at the Warner Bros Discovery Upfront Wednesday. The match-up will take place in Atlanta at 9 p.m. ET without a studio audience, airing live on the cable news network in addition to CNN International, CNN en Español, CNN Max and CNN.com. Moderators have yet to be announced.

Nah .., no more debates.

Trump just needs to avoid debates. 

He was atrocious during the 2016 GOP debates, though republicans didn't seem to notice.  He left the primaries with rock bottom favorability.
His first debate with Hillary pushed him way behind in the polls.  The next two were less harmful, but more people thought Hillary won. 
The 2020 election was fairly close in swing states, so any one thing can be blamed for the defeat.  The first debate was so disastrous, Trump dropped out of the second.
His debate with Biden in June probably cost him the election, because Biden had time to drop out. 
Kamala will have plenty of time to formulate comebacks to the stuff Trump has been saying at his rallies.

Pence was okay, if not better than Kaine or Harris.
Let Vance debate.  He's pretty quick on his feet, and the exposure can only help him.

Disney Executive Overseeing ABC News Donated to Kamala Harris, Raising Questions About Possible Debate Rigging

A high-ranking Disney executive who oversees ABC News has donated to Kamala Harris’ political career numerous times and reportedly remains close friends with the Democratic candidate, raising serious questions about a conflict of interest and the possibility that the network’s September 10 debate will be rigged against former President Donald Trump.

Dana Walden serves as co-chairman of Disney Entertainment where she oversees numerous TV divisions, including ABC News and ABC Entertainment. Over the years, she has donated numerous times to Kamala Harris’ various political campaigns, including her 2020 presidential bid that fizzled out early in the primaries, according to a New York Times report.

She has hosted Harris fundraisers at her home in Los Angeles. Last year, she reportedly donated $20,000 to support President Biden and the Democratic Party.

More disturbingly, Walden reportedly remains close friends with Kamala Harris and her husband, entertainment lawyer Doug Emhoff.  Harris once credited Dana Walden and her husband, Matt, for her marriage during a 2022 fundraiser. ...
