Trump & Biden Will Have Dueling Town Halls In Place Of A 2nd Debate

Description

On Wednesday, NBC News announced that President Donald Trump will participate in a town hall on Thursday evening. The town hall will take place at the same time as his 2020 Democratic opponent's Joe Biden's on ABC News, which was announced last week. The change of schedule came after Trump refused to take part in a second presidential debate virtually. The commission for Presidential debates suggested a virtual debate out of concern for Trump's health after his coronavirus diagnosis. Both candidates will appear on separate stages at 8 p.m.

Aides To Trump: It's Over

While Joe Biden has publicly announced he expects to win the election, President Donald Trump does not plan to concede. Business Insider reports Trump has continued to push ahead with several lawsuits in a last-minute effort to halt states' vote counts or contest results. But sources say aides see it more as a 'slapdash legal effort' that has not borne fruit--nor is likely to. What's more, Trump's continual false claims about voter fraud and a stolen election have reportedly also made some aides uneasy. As they quietly retreat, others are looking for 2024 targets they can focus their political ambitions on.
