WJ "The topics for next week’s final presidential debate between President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden have been released.
"Trump and Biden, as of now, are expected to meet Thursday at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee.
"The currently embattled Commission on Presidential Debates announced Friday that the candidates will discuss leadership, the coronavirus pandemic, issues of race, families, national security and climate change." . . .
"Kristen Welker of NBC News, the moderator of the 90-minute debate, selected the topics.
"The debate commission called off the second debate after the supposedly nonpartisan body unilaterally decided to make the forum virtual.
"Trump declined such a forum, saying, “That’s not what debating is all about. You sit behind a computer and do a debate. It’s ridiculous. And then they cut you off whenever they want.”
"The debate was ultimately canceled after the moderator, C-SPAN host Steve Scully, posted a tweet last week publicly seeking the advice of Trump opponent Anthony Scaramucci." . . .
