Update from October 22nd, 5:06 p.m.: Will

the last TV duel of the

Or will there be more substantive discussions between

Donald Trump

and

Joe Biden

this time

?

An answer will be given from 8 p.m. local time (3 a.m. CEST)

.

One topic that is likely to play a role: The nomination of devout Catholic

Amy Coney Barrett

as constitutional judge, which was approved by the Judicial Committee of the

US Senate

on Thursday

.

She had previously been selected by US President Donald Trump.

Many

Democrats

criticize the

fact that the new appointment could take place before the

election on November 3rd

.

This would increase the conservative majority in the

US Supreme Court

.

Some Democrats have already called for the court to be expanded in the future.

Joe Biden has not yet taken a clear position on the issue.

In an interview with

CBS News

scheduled to air on Sunday, which the

New York Times

(text behind a pay gate) reports, Biden said he would, as president,

set up

a

non-partisan commission of scholars to

investigate possible innovations at the court should.

TV duel between Trump and Biden: a debate with new rules

The

New York Times

wrote

that he wanted to

express

his own views on the whole issue before the big

election day

.

Maybe the right moment will come up for him tonight.

First report from October 22nd, 9.30 a.m .:

Nashville / USA - The first

TV duel

before the

US presidential election *

ended in a real mud fight.

None of the candidates turned out to be the

clear winner of the first

television

duel, viewers criticized the behavior of both participants.

Now incumbent

Donald Trump *

and his

challenger Joe Biden

compete against each other again.

US election 2020: Donald Trump and Joe Biden face each other in a second TV duel

One and a half weeks before the

US presidential election

,

Trump

and his opponent

will face each other

on Thursday at 8 p.m. local time (Friday 3 a.m. CEST) in their second television duel in

Nashville

,

southern Tennessee

.

There

are strict rules

for the second and last

TV duel

.

The microphone of one

candidate is

temporarily muted when the other

candidate

speaks.

The trigger for this new regulation is the chaotic and interrupted first TV debate in early

October

.

While

Donald Trump

continually

interrupted

his challenger and was even reprimanded several times,

Joe Biden

insulted

the

US President

as a "clown" among other things.

The runner-up candidates Kamala Harris and Mike Pence * also faced each other in a TV duel in the meantime.

While Trump and Biden hadn't covered each other with fame, Harris and Pence were at least a little more orderly - although Pence repeatedly cut off his opponent's word.

US election 2020: After a chaotic debate - rule change before the second TV duel

As a result, the commission responsible for organizing the

debates

announced that the

rules would be tightened.

As usual, three television duels between the

presidential candidates were

planned

this year

.

A debate scheduled for mid-October was canceled after Trump's

corona infection

.

An initially planned TV duel through a video broadcast was also canceled.

Instead, Trump and Biden stepped in front of the cameras separately and asked questions.

The

incumbent

is less than two weeks before the election on November 3 in the polls behind his challenger from the opposition

Democrats

.
