CNN will trust Jake Tapper and Dana Bash with moderating the first presidential debate of the 2024 election cycle.
President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, the presumptive nominees for each of their respective parties, both agreed to two debates — one hosted by CNN on June 27 and another hosted by ABC News in September — earlier on Wednesday.
“CNN Anchors @JakeTapper and @DanaBashCNN will moderate CNN’s Presidential Debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump on June 27 from Atlanta, Georgia. The debate will air live at 9pET on @CNN channels, CNN.com and on CNN Max,” read a statement posted online by CNN.
ABC News has not yet said who it will task with moderating the second scheduled debate on September 10.
Meanwhile, Trump has agreed to a third debate in October that he said would be hosted by Fox News’ Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, but Biden’s team has already indicated that he will not agree to such a forum.

- Jake Tapper
Trump should have never said “any time, anywhere”.
= = =
Hey, I watch BritBox
‘Any time, anywhere’ is out in the shipyard, some abandoned freighter.
But - - - no one is there!
OH, NO where is the real action???
“ Trump is a fool for agreeing to Biden’s rules.”
I have to agree (though I’m not sure there’s anything he could do except walk away, and that would likely be equally problematic).
It’s not just the rules and the moderators…paid employees of the Biden ruling class will be running the broadcast, running the cameras and microphones, determining the questions, determining even what the response will look like. They will have such complete control that even Biden spends the time drooling into his mic, he will come out easily ahead.
Oh, they can be trusted.....to carry water for the democommies.
Evvy pitcha tell a story.
Anything, as long as he agrees to this, which I do not suppose he will.
The moderator will be attacking Trump during that time.
or- they purposely over medicate dementia zhao and he collapses on stage, then they are “forced” to replace him...
DARN-—I WANTED CLINT EASTWOOD TO BE MODERATOR.
HE DID A GREAT JOB WITH THE EMPTY CHAIR
Why the Hell did Trump agree to these moderators???
It won’t be bad. If Trump comes with his facts ready, ready to present border numbers, grocery numbers, gas prices in a calm and concise manner this could very well win him the Presidency. If he foolishly goes in there expecting Biden to be a doddering old fool then Biden will mop the floor with him and Trump won’t be President again. So hopefully he understands that Biden is the President of the most powerful nation on Earth, fully capable or winning an argument and besting him in a one on one debate.
BS moderators! Nothing ever changes.
Has Fox delared Biden the winner yet?
Like the STOU, they’re gonna load Joe up with amphetamines and the best drugs, including experimental.
Dana Bash—“President Biden, why are you such a nice guy”?
Dana Bash—-“Mr Trump, why are you a Nazi, racist bigot and literally Hitler”?
Trump should demand a physician of his choosing check Biden for earpieces before the debate.
We never get moderators that are even slightly conservative. There will never be a debate with a Rush Limbaugh type.
It’s always a communist/progressive tag team against the Repub.
Why is Trump agreeing to debate Biden before the conventions? It’s likely Biden don’t even be the nominee by September. The Trump’s people should say no to any debates before the conventions have been held and the nominees chosen. and if Biden won’t go on Fox, then Trump should refuse to go on CNN or MSNBC.
Quit letting them make up the rules.
