Biden and Trump Debate on CNN Could Have Big Impact
In the upcoming presidential election rematch between President Biden and former President Trump, the stakes are incredibly high. The first of two debates will take place at the CNN Presidential Debate in Atlanta, Georgia, a crucial battleground state. Both candidates will have 90 minutes on stage without a studio audience. Their microphones will be muted except when answering questions, and no props or notes will be allowed.
Polls show a tight race between Biden and Trump, with the former president leading in many national surveys. The outcome of this debate could have a significant impact on the election. Biden, 81, faces concerns about his age and approval ratings, while Trump is dealing with criminal charges and backlash over his actions during his presidency.
The big question going into the debate is which version of Trump will show up. Will he be the uncontrolled candidate from the first 2020 debate or the disciplined and measured one from the second? Experts advise Trump to replicate his performance from the latter debate and be firm without being offensive.
On the other hand, Biden needs to avoid falling into the incumbent trap and present himself as a better choice than Trump. His team is preparing for the debate while Trump mixes debate sessions with campaign rallies. Trump’s team is already trying to undermine the debate’s credibility by questioning the moderators and asking Biden to take a drug test.
As the debate approaches, Biden’s campaign warns of Trump’s potential lies on stage. Vice President Harris highlighted Trump’s disregard for truth in past statements. The debate is shaping up to be a critical moment in the election race, with both candidates preparing to present their positions and challenge each other on the national stage.
