Trump challenged President Biden on his social media platform Truth Social. In this challenge, Donald Trump invited Joe Biden to debate on television.
Stating that he can share trump cards with Biden anytime and anywhere, Trump said, “This is important for the good of our country and the American people.”
Until the Republican primary, Trump had never participated in a debate between the candidates.
Biden’s team said after the call that Trump was “thirsty for attention and struggling to get attention.”
“BIDEN TOO OLD AND FORGETFUL TO DEBATE”
If Trump’s call is answered, the leaders will meet for the first time before the November elections.
The challenge came hours after Trump’s last Republican rival, Nikki Haley, withdrew from the race for the nomination.
Trump added that the debate could be overseen by the Democratic National Committee.
Former US President Trump had repeatedly claimed that the 81-year-old Biden was too old and forgetful to argue with him. Biden, on the other hand, suggested that Trump was the “senile” one.
Before the 2020 elections, Trump and Biden faced each other twice.
