With the November election exactly two weeks away, President Trump is continuing his tour of the pivotal battleground states with a campaign stop in Pennsylvania, where he’s currently trailing Democratic rival Joe Biden.
Trump’s rally in Erie, Pa., comes just two days before the candidates will face off for the second and final presidential debate on Thursday night, which will be moderated by Kristen Welker of NBC News.
Like the first debate, each candidate will be allotted 2 minutes of speaking time to answer the moderator’s questions; but under a new plan announced Monday by the Commission on Presidential Debates, during that portion of the debate, the opposing candidate’s microphone will be muted.

“I’ll participate. I just think it’s very unfair,” Trump said Monday when asked by reporters about the change.
