As the U.S. presidential race heats up, Vice President Kamala Harris is pushing for changes to the upcoming debate rules, specifically requesting that both candidates' microphones remain live throughout the debate. This request aims to provoke former President Donald Trump into making unguarded remarks, potentially damaging his campaign. Trump's team has expressed concerns about this change and is considering skipping the debate hosted by ABC due to disagreements over the network's coverage. Meanwhile, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. faces challenges in removing his name from ballots in key swing states after significant efforts to secure his candidacy. With national polls becoming more reflective of the political landscape after Labor Day, the outcome of the debate could significantly impact the race.
