Former President Donald Trump, representing the Republican Party, has thrown down the gauntlet to US President Joe Biden after securing a significant victory on 'Super Tuesday'.

'Super Tuesday' holds immense significance in the primary selection process for party candidates vying for the US presidential election nomination. Trump's path to the Republican candidacy faced a final hurdle as Nikki Haley, former United States ambassador to the United Nations, made a last-ditch effort to block his nomination.

In a bold move, Trump took to his social media platform 'Truth' social on Wednesday, issuing a direct challenge to Biden. The former president, who is seeking the Republican nomination for the presidential election, expressed his willingness to engage in a televised debate with Biden, asserting his readiness to do so anytime and anywhere.

Responding to Trump's challenge, Biden, representing the Democratic Party, dismissed the former president's overtures, attributing them to a quest for attention. Biden remarked that Trump's actions were driven by a desire to garner a response, dismissing the challenge as a spectacle.

Undeterred by Biden's remarks, Trump doubled down on his call for a debate, emphasizing its importance for the American people. He urged the Democratic National Committee and the Commission on Presidential Debates, entities responsible for overseeing presidential debates, to organize the event.

In a controversial move, Trump also questioned Biden's fitness for the debate, citing the 81-year-old president's age as a potential impediment to a spirited exchange of ideas.

As tensions escalate and the political landscape continues to evolve, Trump's challenge sets the stage for a potential showdown between the two candidates, with the eyes of the nation eagerly awaiting the outcome.
