Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are set to square off for their first and potentially only presidential debate on Tuesday at 9:00 p.m. ET on ABC News.

Both campaigns and ABC News negotiated and agreed to several rules leading up to the debate following President Joe Biden’s departure from the race.

The most notable rule is muted mics while the other nominee speaks. The rule originated from Biden’s negotiated parameters for his debates with Trump. Harris does not like the muted mic rule because it seemed to benefit Trump during the first debate while exposing Biden’s gaffe-prone performance.

Preparing to debate Trump is like “trying to prepare for Floyd Mayweather or Muhammad Ali,” Trump adviser Jason Miller told reporters Monday. “You just — you don’t know what angle they’re going to come at you with. You don’t know what style of contrast that they’re going to deliver.”
