Mitch McCann: US Correspondent on upcoming presidential debates

From Sunday Morning, 8:10 am on 23 June 2024

President Joe Biden and former president Donald Trump face off in their first debate of the 2024 election cycle later this month. 

On June 27 in Atlanta, the duo will be subject to a raft of new rules introduced by CNN to stop a repeat of the first debate in 2020 when the candidates heckled each other, and the moderator lost control. 

Newshub’s US Correspondent Mitch McCann joins Jim for a preview.
