Mdahalo wa Urais Marekani: Rais Trump asema hatoshiriki mdahalo wa pili baada ya Tume kutangaza utafanyika kupitia mtandao

[beth]

Muda mchache baada ya Tume kutangaza kuwa mdahalo wa pili wa Wagombea Urais utafanyika kupitia mtandao, Rais Trump amesema hatoshiriki kwasababu uamuzi huo unalenga kumlinda mpinzani wake, Joe Biden

Tume imesema imeamua kubadili mfumo wa mdahalo huo wa Oktoba 15 ili kulinda afya za washiriki baada ya Rais Trump kupata maambukizi ya COVID19 hivi karibuni

Kwa upande wao, timu ya kampeni ya Biden imekubali uamuzi huo na kusema Mgombea huyo atashiriki katika mdahalo ili kuongea moja kwa moja na Wamarekani

President Donald Trump has refused to take part in a virtual TV debate with his Democratic rival Joe Biden.

Earlier the commission deciding the 15 October Miami debate's format said it would have to take place remotely.

It made the decision after Mr Trump was treated for Covid-19. He has no current symptoms but the White House is tackling a cluster of positive tests.

Mr Trump said the move to virtual was to "protect" his rival. Mr Biden's campaign said he would participate.

President Donald Trump has refused to take part in a virtual TV debate with his Democratic rival Joe Biden.

Earlier the commission deciding the 15 October Miami debate's format said it would have to take place remotely.

It made the decision after Mr Trump was treated for Covid-19. He has no current symptoms but the White House is tackling a cluster of positive tests.

Mr Trump said the move to virtual was to "protect" his rival. Mr Biden's campaign said he would participate.

The Democrat's campaign said he "looks forward to speaking directly to the American people".

But speaking to Fox Business Channel on Thursday, Mr Trump said: "I'm not gonna waste my time on a personal debate. Sit behind a computer, ridiculous. They cut you off... I'm not doing a virtual debate."

His campaign says he will hold a rally at the same time instead.

The first debate had descended into insults and interruptions. US media used words like "chaos" and "ugly" to describe it.

The vice-presidential debate, held on Wednesday night between Mike Pence and Kamala Harris, was a far more measured affair.

The next 90-minute presidential event is due to be held at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in Miami, with local residents in the audience posing questions to the candidates.

But the commission said candidates would have to take part "from separate remote locations". Participants and the moderator would be in Miami.

The commission said the decision had been made "to protect the health and safety of all involved".

The moderator is C-SPAN political editor Steve Scully. Mr Trump described him on Thursday as a "never Trumper".

Mr Trump had previously said he looked forward to debating Mr Biden on stage and, on Monday, Mr Biden said he would share a stage with Mr Trump as long as medical experts gave the go-ahead.

A statement on Thursday from Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien, who had also previously tested positive for Covid, said the decision of the commission to "rush to Joe Biden's defence" was "pathetic" and Mr Trump would have posted "multiple negative tests" before the debate.

Biden communications director Kate Bedingfield said: "Vice-President Biden looks forward to speaking directly to the American people and comparing his plan for bringing the country together and building back better with Donald Trump's failed leadership on the coronavirus that has thrown the strong economy he inherited into the worst downturn since the Great Depression."

BBC imetangaza uamuzi wa Rais Donald Trump wa Marekani kukataa kuendelea na midahalo ya wagombea urais kwa madai kuwa midahalo hiyo inapoteza muda wa kuwatumikia wamarekani.

Kadhalika waandaaji wa midahalo wanaweza kuwa na ajenda za siri za kumuhujumu.

Nadhani Tundu Lissu anayelilia kufanya mdahalo na wagombea wenzie wa urais atakuwa amepata majawabu kwamba wagombea wengine hawana muda wa kupoteza kwenye midahalo.

Maendeleo hayana vyama!

Mwenzio alishindwa mdahalo wa kwanza, kaona mdahalo wa pili ndo anaenda kupoteza kura zote.

Jiwe anajua kwenye mdahalo hawezi kuchomoka hata apewe maswali na majibu na TumeCCM

Trump akishinda urais tena itakua ajabu sana

Trump ni kama bwafulani tu

 

[Nyani Ngabu]

Trump akishinda urais tena itakua ajabu sana

Kwa nini iwe ajabu?

Umeshaangalia track record ya incumbents kushinda re-election?

Nadhani ajabu ilikuwa ni ile mara ya kwanza aliposhinda.

Sasa akishinda tena kitu ambacho alishafanikiwa kukipata, hiyo haitokuwa ajabu.

Mimi sijui nani atashinda.

Kura za watu [na si kikundi cha watu wachache kama baadhi ya conspiracy theories zinavyodai] ndo zitaamua.
