BREAKING: Kamala refuses to accept previously agreed upon rules for ABC debate, pushes for unmuted mics
The Sept. 10 debate, previously agreed to with Biden, had the rules for muted microphones during the time of the debate. ABC News has also rejected her proposal to change the rules.
Vice President Kamala Harris is attempting to renegotiate the debate rules on unmuting the microphones for the Sept. 10 debate on ABC News with Donald Trump. This is despite ABC News rejecting her proposal to change the rules a few days ago.
Harris posted on her social media on Saturday, "Donald Trump is surrendering to his advisors who won't allow him to debate with a live microphone. If his own team doesn't have confidence in him, the American people definitely can’t."
The Sept. 10 debate, previously agreed to with Biden, had the rules for muted microphones during the time of the debate. Harris claimed that she wanted the debate to be "transparent" with the "microphones on the whole time."
The rules to the debate, aside from the muted microphones, include that there will be no audience and that there will be no written notes for Trump or Harris. Harris has also attempted to change the rules to have written notes.
Some online have said that Harris wants to have an “I’m speaking” moment, similar to what she did in a debate with Mike Pence when the former Vice President interrupted her. At the time, Harris, when she was interrupted slightly on a question about the COVID-19 pandemic, fired back and said, "Mr. Vice President, I'm speaking." According to reporting from CBS News, Harris also interrupted Pence during the debate.
Other rules for the Trump-Harris debate include that topics and questions will not be shown in advance and the nominees will have two minutes to answer questions asked by the moderators.
The debate between Trump and Harris is set to take place at 9pm eastern time on Sept. 10, and will be at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia
