Donald Trump and Kamala Harris have reached an agreement on the rules for their upcoming TV debate on September 10. The microphones will be muted when the other candidate is speaking, a measure that was previously used in the debate between Trump and Biden.

The debate will be moderated by ABC journalists David Muir and Linsey Davis and will last for 90 minutes with two commercial breaks. Each candidate will be provided with a pen, paper, and water, and their speaking time will be limited.

It is worth noting that Trump had previously threatened to cancel the debate. However, both candidates have now accepted the rules, ensuring that the debate will proceed as planned.
