President Biden has indicated his willingness to engage in a debate with former President Trump ahead of the election, prompting Trump to propose the White House as a venue.
President Joe Biden has expressed his readiness to debate former President Donald Trump prior to the election, responding with a curt "Set it up" to reporters' inquiries. Biden's statement follows Trump's repeated assertions that he would debate Biden "anywhere, anytime, anyplace."
Just two weeks ago, Biden expressed his willingness to engage with Trump in a debate, telling broadcaster Howard Stern in an interview on April 26th that he would be "happy" to do so. This came after Trump had suggested the courthouse in Lower Manhattan as a potential venue, where he is currently embroiled in court cases.
In response to Biden's openness to a debate, Trump has proposed the White House as a venue, stating that it would be "very comfortable." He has emphasized his readiness to debate, saying that he is "ready, willing, and able," and expressing skepticism that Biden would actually participate.
Trump has suggested the Manhattan Criminal Court as another possible venue, where he is currently facing charges. He has repeatedly told reporters that he is "ready, willing, and able" to debate Biden, but doubts that Biden will show up.
Biden, on the other hand, has not committed to a specific date for a debate, indicating that his participation would depend on Trump's behavior.
The potential debate between Biden and Trump has generated significant interest, as it would mark a rematch of the 2020 presidential election. Both candidates have expressed their readiness to engage in a public discussion, but the logistics and timing of the event remain uncertain.
Fox News Digital has reached out to Biden's campaign for comment but has yet to receive a response. Fox News Digital's Brooke Singman contributed to this report.
