President Trump says he won’t debate Democrat Joe Biden next week after the Commission on Presidential Debates announced it would be held virtually as a safety measure.
“Not wasting my time with a virtual event,” Trump told Fox Business News.
It’s not the first debate in which the candidates are not in the same room. In 1960, the third presidential debate between Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy was broadcast with the two candidates on opposite coasts.

“We don’t know what the president’s gonna do; he changes his mind every second," Joe Biden says of President Trump asserting that he won't participate in virtual debate. Biden made the comments before his flight to Phoenix for campaign events Thursday. pic.twitter.com/UdWgcVXBjo

I think having Biden directly respond live to Trumps COVID fest would be a much better use of that airtime.
