Don't miss the historic TV debate between Biden and Trump, where key political issues and personal quirks could shape the future of the US election. Learn about the risks and strategies for both candidates.


Upcoming Historic TV Debate Between Biden and Trump

The highly anticipated TV debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden is set to take place on Friday night at CNN headquarters in Atlanta. This event marks an unprecedented exchange of rhetoric between the two most promising candidates for the US presidential election, even before their official nomination by their parties. The debate, described as 'incredibly historic' by presidential historian Douglas Brinkley, is crucial for both candidates as they vie for the favor of American voters.

Key Issues and Personal Quirks

Both candidates are expected to tackle significant political issues during the debate. Biden aims to gain support by focusing on the issue of abortion, a topic where a majority of Americans align with his stance. Trump, on the other hand, will likely criticize Biden's immigration and economic policies. However, personal quirks and outbursts could play a decisive role in influencing voter perception. Debate expert Aaron Kall notes that such mistakes often reinforce pre-existing caricatures of the candidates.

Risks and Strategies for Biden and Trump

Biden faces the challenge of avoiding the stereotype of a senile old man, a narrative pushed by his Republican rivals. Any signs of incoherence or physical frailty could severely impact his campaign. Conversely, Trump must avoid appearing as an unstable tyrant, a portrayal Biden's team has been pushing. The debate will feature muted microphones and no studio audience, conditions that could benefit Biden by neutralizing Trump's bombastic style. Political experts predict that despite these strict rules, the debate will still feature significant 'fireworks'.
