After Donald Trump’s “debate now” challenge, Joe Biden claims he has “nothing to do.”

Former US President Donald Trump said that he would want to confront current US President Joe Biden “now because we should debate” as the campaign for the US presidency in 2024 heats up. In response, however, the President said that Trump “had nothing to do.”

We should discuss, thus I’d want to do it now. “We ought to engage in debate for the benefit of our nation,” Trump said during a radio interview with conservative pundit Dan Bongino.

Democratic candidate Joe Biden said, “If I were him, I would want to debate me too,” to questions from reporters on Monday while on a trip to Las Vegas on Trump’s demand for a debate. He has no tasks to do.”

Despite being the clear favorite to confront Biden in the Republican primary on November 5, Trump has not yet secured the nomination and has declined Republican opponent Nikki Haley’s request for a debate.

Haley’s team responded to Trump’s remarks by claiming in a statement that he was “too chicken” to take on her in debate.

It’s time for Trump to take a stand and consent to a debate with Nikki Haley. Olivia Perez-Cubas, a spokesman for the Haley campaign, said, “Nikki is prepared to confront Trump’s campaign of mayhem and personal grudges with her conservative track record and vision for a powerful and proud America.”

Trump’s remarks show that he wants to concentrate on his anticipated election opponent, Joe Biden, who defeated Biden in Saturday’s Democratic primary in South Carolina and is predicted to secure his party’s nomination.

Despite trailing well behind Trump in surveys, Haley, a former governor of South Carolina and Trump’s UN ambassador, has pledged to continue pushing him for the nomination.

Twice in the 2020 campaign, Trump and Biden engaged in debates.

Following Trump’s refusal to take part in a virtual event and his positive test results for COVID-19, a third debate was canceled.

There are three presidential debates per year on average.
