Despite the objections of his advisers, President Donald Trump is "tentatively" planning on live-tweeting next week's Democratic primary debates, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday morning.

Trump loves using Twitter to comment on current events in real time and attack his detractors, but advisers told The Journal they're concerned Trump live-tweeting the event could backfire by giving the Democrats even more attention.

In recent weeks, Trump has ramped up his attacks on the many 2020 contenders, and he enjoys pitting them against each other, especially when it comes to former Vice President Joe Biden

The 20 Democratic candidates who qualified for the first round of debates will be evenly split between June 26 and 27, NBC announced last week.

Despite the objections of his advisers, President Donald Trump is "tentatively" planning on live-tweeting next week's Democratic primary debates, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday morning.

While his advisers and people close to Trump told The Journal that Trump could change his mind and change course, he's planning on watching and tweeting during the debates, which will take place in Miami on June 26 and 27.

Trump himself is set to formally kick off his reelection campaign with a boisterous rally in Orlando, Florida, on Tuesday evening.

Despite Trump's love of using Twitter to comment on current events in real time and attack his detractors, advisers told The Journal they're concerned Trump live-tweeting the event could backfire, saying "there was an advantage in letting potential challengers attack one another without distraction," and Trump's attacks could end up playing into the Democrats' hands by drawing more attention to the debates, according to The Journal.

In recent weeks, Trump has ramped up his attacks on the many 2020 contenders, and he enjoys pitting them against each other, especially when it comes to former Vice President Joe Biden, whom early polling suggests could be Trump's most formidable foe in a general-election match-up.

In Friday remarks to reporters on the White House's South Lawn, Trump blasted Biden as "a dummy," "mentally weak," and "1% Joe," an insulting reference to Biden's poor past performance in his 1988 and 2008 presidential runs.

"I heard Biden, who is a loser — I mean, look, Joe never got more than 1%, except Obama took him off the trash heap. Now it looks like he is failing. It looks like his friends from the left are going to overtake him pretty soon," Trump said.

The 20 Democratic candidates who qualified for the first round of debates will be evenly split between the two nights, NBC announced last week.

And on June 27, Biden, Sen. Bernie Sanders, Sen. Kamala Harris, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, Sen. Michael Bennet, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, Marianne Williamson, Rep. Eric Swalwell, former Gov. John Hickenlooper, and Andrew Yang will take the stage.
