Biden, meanwhile, has done everything he could to avoid a debate with independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. \u2014 more on him shortly.)<\/p>\n<p>Given the first-of-its-kind nature, it\u2019s little surprise that most political pundits are waiting for that June 27 debate with bated breath.<\/p>\n<p>For those pundits and viewers, that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/fetterman-fades-in-post-debate-poll\/\" title=\"Fetterman Fades in Post-Debate Poll\">highly anticipated debate<\/a> is starting to take a slightly firmer shape.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2024\/06\/15\/politics\/trump-biden-cnn-debate-rules\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CNN<\/a> \u2014 which will host the inaugural debate, despite not exactly being a haven for pro-Trump thought \u2014 both the Biden camp and Trump camp have agreed to a number of rules pertaining to the debate.<\/p>\n<p>Some of these rules are expected, while others are breaking from previously established norms.<\/p>\n<div id=\"firefly-poll-container\">\n<p>Will you be watching the first presidential debate?<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>One key rule that both sides have agreed to: All microphones will be muted unless a candidate is actually speaking, in an attempt to minimize out-of-turn interruptions.<\/p>\n<p>One minor rule that both sides have agreed to: Both Trump and Biden will debate from podiums, and podium positioning will be determined by a coin flip.<\/p>\n<p>One potential issue for the 78-year-old Trump and the 81-year-old Biden: Neither man will be allowed to use note cards or props of any sort. Biden, specifically, has come under fire for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/karine-jean-pierre-confronted-bidens-notecards-loses-second-reporter-jumps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">needing note cards<\/a> in the past. Anyone who has watched the president rely on those cards has to wonder how badly this rule will impact him.<\/p>\n<p>One way this debate will be different from others in the past: There will be no live audience in attendance.<\/p>\n<p>Both men will be allowed a pen, a pad of paper and a water bottle. Aides will not be allowed to interact with either candidate during the course of the debate.<\/p>\n<p>The entire ordeal will last 90 minutes, with two planned commercial interruptions.<\/p>\n<p>While those rules will all definitively apply to both Trump and Biden, a question lingers as to whether those debate rules will apply to any other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-anatomy-of-a-stolen-election-the-fraud-cannot-stand\/\" title=\"The Anatomy of a Stolen Election \u2013 The Fraud Cannot Stand\">presidential candidates<\/a>, as well.<\/p>\n<p>The aforementioned Kennedy, evergreen Green Party candidate Jill Stein and independent philosopher Cornel West are all also vying for a seat at the table, but it\u2019s unclear whether any of them will actually make it.<\/p>\n<p>All three candidates largely qualify for the debate, save for two key metrics: Candidates must appear on a sufficient number of ballots to theoretically hit the 270 electoral votes needed for a win, and candidates must hit 15 percent polling in at least four nationally recognized polls.<\/p>\n<p>Kennedy comes closest by qualifying for 89 electoral votes, and he has hit 15 percent polling in three nationally recognized polls. Both figures still fall short of meeting debate qualifications.<\/p>\n<p>After CNN\u2019s debate on June 27, the president and likely GOP nominee will reconvene on Sep. 10 for a debate on ABC.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<div>\n<p><b><i>A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span>I heard a chilling comment the other day: \u201cWe don\u2019t even know if an election will be held in 2024.\u201d <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>That wasn\u2019t said by a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday prophet.
