On Thursday at 02:59, SVT's broadcast begins from the last debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden before the presidential election on 3 November.

The road here has been chaotic at times - during the first debate, Donald Trump interrupted his opponent Joe Biden a total of 71 times, while Joe Biden interrupted Donald Trump 22 times.

Then Donald Trump fell ill in covid-19 and then refused to participate in a virtual debate.

Among other things, will debate the fight against the pandemic

When the two men now make up in front of the cameras for the last time, the microphones will alternately be turned off.

In this way, the Commission on Presidential Debates, CPD, hopes to avoid the total failure that the first debate has subsequently been described as.

Thursday's debate will be broadcast from Nashville, Tennessee, and will be moderated by NBC's White House correspondent Kristen Welker.

Preliminarily, six topics will be debated: the fight against the pandemic, American families, ethnicity in the United States, climate change, national security and leadership.

Those who do not have mouth guards are thrown out

In addition to the microphones of the combat mats being partially switched off, the rules regarding mouth guards have also been tightened.

This after members of the Trump family took off their masks during the first debate.

Now the Washington Post reports that people in the audience who are not wearing protection will be thrown out.

Verbal duel for 90 minutes

The debate will be for 90 minutes without commercial breaks and the six different topics that Donald Trump and Joe Biden will duel around will have 15 minutes each.

The Trump campaign has previously criticized the Commission on presidential debates for the topic choices that are claimed to be tailored to suit Joe Biden.
