Joe Biden and Donald Trump will go at it next month.

Joe Biden and Donald Trump will officially face off in a pair of presidential debates on CNN and ABC in the coming months. For CNN's debate, Jake Tapper and Dana Bash will serve as the moderators and there will be no live audience.

Both candidates reacted to the news on social media, on Wednesday. "Donald Trump lost two debates to me in 2020," Biden remarked on Twitter. "Since then, he hasn’t shown up for a debate. Now he’s acting like he wants to debate me again. Well, make my day, pal." As for Trump, he took to Truth Social to accept the challenge. He wrote: "It is my great honor to accept the CNN Debate against Crooked Joe Biden, the WORST PRESIDENT in the History of the United States and a true Threat to Democracy, on June 27th. Likewise, I accept the ABC News Debate against Crooked Joe on September 10th. Thank you, DJT!"

Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has already complained about not being invited on the stage, calling it collusion on Twitter. "They are trying to exclude me from their debate because they are afraid I would win," he wrote in part. "Keeping viable candidates off the debate stage undermines democracy."
