The first major event of the 2024 presidential election season has seemingly been agreed to with former President Donald Trump accepting the offer of a televised debate with President Joe Biden to take place at 2100ET (0200BST, 0300CET) on 27 June, hosted by CNN in Atlanta, Georgia. Trump reportedly told Fox News' Brooke Singman that “I’ll be there” and says he’s “looking forward to being in beautiful Atlanta.”

  • Earlier today, President Biden withdrew from the traditional debate dates, with his campaign arguing that they want the debates to occur before early voting gets underway. Usually, three debates would take place well into the autumn. Instead, the Biden campaign has said that the president will agree to two debates, one in June and one in early September.
  • Live televised debates pose risks for both Trump and Biden. Trump remains embroiled in legal battles that leave him vulnerable to attack, while Biden will face both questions regarding his record in gov't and regarding his ability to serve another full term in office.
