[Washington = Nakahiro Iwata]Following the television debate on the first candidate for the US presidential elections held on September 29, a new mechanism was introduced in the remaining two debates (15 and 22 this month). It was decided. Trump and former Vice President Byden have been accused of exchanging criticism, and criticism after criticism has been received as “the worst in history” (US media).

The executive committee of the debate stressed in a statement on the 30th that “more orderly discussions must be guaranteed. Specific measures will be announced at a later date. The Washington Post (electronic version) reported the same day that “Mr. Trump had 71 times in 98 minutes and Mr. Byden had 22 times in total, which was approximately once per minute.”

Byden slammed Trump’s behavior as a “national disgrace” at a news conference in Midwest Ohio the same day before the executive committee’s statement. “The executive committee should be able to answer the moderator’s questions without interruption,” he said, hoping the format would change.

In response, the Trump camp held back in a statement: “President Trump dominated the debate. (The executive committee) should not move the goal or change the rules in the middle of the game.”
