In a high-stakes debate, Trump and Biden will tackle key issues like the economy and inflation. With muted microphones and no audience, the format aims for a more orderly discussion. Tune in for a pivotal moment in the 2024 election race.


Trump and Biden Set for High-Stakes Debate

The upcoming debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden marks their first face-to-face confrontation since the chaotic 2020 presidential campaign. The event, hosted by CNN in Atlanta, will be closely monitored by tens of millions of viewers. With microphones muted when not in use and no audience present, the debate format aims to foster a more orderly discussion compared to their previous encounter.

Both candidates have much to prove. Biden must demonstrate his physical and mental fitness to govern, while Trump needs to appeal to moderate and independent voters without alienating his base. The debate will cover critical issues such as the economy, immigration, and inflation, which are top concerns for American voters according to recent polls.

Economic Concerns Take Center Stage

The economy is expected to be a major focus during the debate. With nearly 90% of respondents in a recent ABC News/Ipsos poll indicating that the economy is the most important issue, both candidates will present their contrasting visions. Unemployment has been low but shows signs of cooling, while inflation remains high despite recent slowdowns. Housing prices are also a significant issue, with rates at historic highs and many potential buyers opting to rent instead.

The debate will also touch on other pressing topics like the war in Ukraine and abortion rights. Both candidates will have to navigate these complex issues while trying to sway undecided voters. The debate's outcome could significantly impact their respective campaigns, especially with another debate scheduled for September 10.

  • The debate will be moderated by Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, who are known for their rigorous questioning. CNN has set up a special studio at the Georgia Institute of Technology for the event, emphasizing its importance by branding the venue extensively with its logo.
  • Trump's campaign has been preparing for this debate by adjusting their strategy, aware that his aggressive approach in 2020 may have backfired. Biden, on the other hand, has been training with a team of advisors at Camp David, aiming to project competence and stability.
  • The debate's format, which includes muted microphones and no audience, could favor Biden by limiting interruptions. However, it may also help Trump by imposing a level of restraint that he might struggle to maintain on his own.
  • Both candidates have rallies planned immediately after the debate, indicating the high stakes involved. Biden will head to North Carolina, while Trump will go to Virginia, where he will be joined by Governor Glenn Youngkin, a potential vice-presidential pick.
