Former President Trump said he would have “no problem” with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. joining the presidential debate stage with President Biden, if the independent candidate meets the threshold to participate.
“I would have no problem if he got whatever the threshold is,” Trump said in an interview Thursday with Scripps News.
“But he’s very low and seems to be heading in the other direction, in the wrong direction,” Trump continued.
Trump and President Biden announced Wednesday they have agreed to participate in two head-to-head presidential debates, one hosted by CNN on June 27 and another hosted by ABC on Sept. 10.
CNN announced that in order to participate, candidates must meet a set of requirements, including having their names appear on enough ballots to theoretically reach the 270 electoral vote threshold to win the presidency. Candidates must also receive at least 15 percent support in four separate national polls of registered or likely voters that meet CNN’s specified standards.
Polling eligibility opened March 13 and closes seven days before the date of the debate.
