The Biden campaign on Wednesday rejected the prospect of adding debates with former President Trump beyond the two that the candidates have already agreed to after Trump’s campaign suggested holding additional debates this summer.
“Donald Trump has a long history of playing games with debates: complaining about the rules, breaking those rules, pulling out at the last minute, or not showing up at all — which he’s done repeatedly in all three cycles he’s run for president,” Biden campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon said in a statement.
“He said he would debate President Biden anytime, anywhere, anyplace,” O’Malley Dillon continued. “In fact, he’s said and posted it dozens of times with varying degrees of comprehension and basic grammar. President Biden made his terms clear for two one-on-one debates, and Donald Trump accepted those terms.”
“No more games. No more chaos, no more debate about debates,” she said. “We’ll see Donald Trump on June 27th in Atlanta – if he shows up.”
