Harris campaign says there’s no agreement yet on debate mics
The Harris campaign says there’s been no agreement to the ground rules for the upcoming presidential debate. In a social media post Tuesday afternoon, Donald Trump claimed an agreement had been reached and that debate microphones would be muted when it’s not a candidate’s turn to speak. But the Harris campaign rejected that claim a few hours later, saying the issue remains a matter of ongoing conversation with host network ABC. Trump’s campaign wants mics to be muted, while the vice president’s team prefers unmuted mics for the duration of the debate, which is scheduled for September 10th.
