This week’s Sunday newscasts will likely focus on the upcoming debate between President Biden and former President Trump next week.
The two presidents are scheduled to debate on CNN on June 27 at 9 pm (Brasília time) in Atlanta. Defenders of Biden and Trump, including Mitch Landrieu, the national co-chair of Biden’s campaign, and Gov. Doug Burgum (RN.D.), a possible running mate for the presumptive Republican nominee, are scheduled to go on air Sunday. Burgum will appear on CNN’s “State of the Union” and Landrieu will appear on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
Trump recently said on a podcast that he is “not underestimating” Biden ahead of the next debate.
“I was never a fan of his, but I will say he won [former House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.)] – still years ago, but he beat Paul Ryan badly,” Trump said. “And I assume he will be someone who will be a worthy debater, I would say, I think. I don’t want to underestimate him.”
Other candidates for Trump’s veepstakes positions, including Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Florida) and Gov. Kristi Noem (RS.D.), will make appearances on the shows this week, with Noem on “Meet the Press” and Donalds on Fox News ‘“Sunday Morning Futures”.
The two-year anniversary of the overturn of Roe v. Wade will also happen next week. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who is scheduled to appear Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” said in a post on social media platform X last week that “overturning Roe is just the tip of the iceberg for extremists anti-abortion politicians.”
“Republican politicians are pushing to ban abortion nationwide, restrict access to birth control and even limit prenatal care. It’s extreme and dangerous,” said the Massachusetts senator he said in your post.
Vice President Harris is heading to Maryland to mark the second anniversary of the Supreme Court ruling that ended the constitutional right to access abortion, the Biden-Harris campaign said earlier this week.
“The vice president will remind voters that Donald Trump is responsible for overturning Roe and the chaos that followed, and will highlight the threat a second Trump presidency would pose to reproductive freedom across the country,” the campaign said in a statement.
Trump praised the end of Roe v. Wade while headlining the Faith & Freedom Coalition’s “Road to Majority” conference on Saturday.
“I want to thank the six justices of the Supreme Court – Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett – for the wisdom and courage they have demonstrated on this very controversial and long-term issue.” he said. “This fight has been going on for a long time.”
“We did something incredible,” added the former president. “The big problem is that it is trapped in the federal government, but the people decide and that is how it should be. The people are now deciding. Some states are a little more conservative and some states are a lot more liberal.”
Other issues likely to arise are the recent treaty between North Korea and Russia for mutual defense, the crisis on the southern border and the Israel-Hamas war.
