Donald Trump vs Kamala Harris debate LIVE — Ex-prez drops ‘traditional prep’ ahead of face-off – what time to watch


Mics will be muted

Microphones will be muted when candidates aren’t speaking to prevent unnecessary interruptions during tonight’s debate.

This new rule has reportedly thrown Kamala Harris’ team.

The Harris campaign had already agreed to the debate conditions that were previously negotiated for Donald Trump and President Joe Biden, but it seems they were hoping the rules on microphones would change.

“Kamala Harris had planned to object, fact-check and directly question Donald Trump while he was speaking during their debate,” Politico reported on Friday.

“But now, with rules just finalized to mute the candidates when their opponents speaks, campaign officials said Harris advisers are scrambling to rewrite their playbook.”

No live audience

There won’t be a live audience at tonight’s debate in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The candidates also aren’t giving opening statements, according to CBS News.
