Trump Campaign Pushes for Earlier and More Frequent Presidential Debates

In a series of letters to the Commission on Presidential Debates, Trump's team calls for debates to start earlier to accommodate early voters, while Biden remains non-committal.

Trump's campaign has sent multiple requests to the Commission on Presidential Debates to hold presidential debates earlier and increase their frequency, citing the rise in early voting.
The campaign proposes as many as seven debates, arguing that more opportunities for public engagement are necessary before many Americans cast their ballots.
Biden's campaign has not yet committed to participating in debates, with Biden suggesting his decision may depend on Trump's behavior.
Major TV networks have drafted a joint letter urging both candidates to commit to debate participation ahead of the election.
Trump's insistence on earlier debates aligns with his strategy to engage directly with Biden, despite avoiding debates during the GOP primary.
