Biden and Trump have both accepted an invitation from CNN to debate on June 27, a historically early showdown that will set the tone for the final months of the 2024 campaign.

“I’ve received and accepted an invitation from @CNN for a debate on June 27th. Over to you, Donald. As you said: anywhere, any time, any place,” Biden said in a post on X.

The result is a June 27 debate.

Betting markets have the hand shake at +117 odds, not favored to happen but close enough to even odds.
