(Oct. 22) Watch live as President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden square off in the final presidential debate on Thursday, Oct. 22 at 9 p.m. EDT, in Nashville, Tennesee. NBC's Kristen Welker will moderate the debate with climate change, the pandemic response, American families, national security, and race in America all on the table for conversation.

Trump has some ground to make up in the final campaign debate Thursday against Democrat Joe Biden after a widely panned performance in a late September face-off that took place days before he tested positive for coronavirus and ended up in the hospital.

Trump has been angrily complaining at rallies that the moderator is biased against him. He claims Welker won’t treat him fairly, that the topics aren’t to his liking and that a decision to mute the microphones at times when the other candidate is speaking is unfair.

Trump and Biden will be asked to discuss the fight against Covid-19, American families, race in America, climate change, national security and leadership, the Commission on Presidential Debates announced Friday.

The topics are subject to change based on news developments. The Trump campaign has said this debate was meant to be about foreign policy, but there is no record of such an agreement.

The forum was supposed to be the third of three debates but the second event was canceled after Trump pulled out when the CPD announced it would be virtual in response to his diagnosis and hospitalization for Covid. Instead, the candidates held simultaneous town halls broadcast on separate networks.
