The Trump-Biden debate: Old man taunts and silent mics

Both Trump and Biden have given the green light to the guidelines ahead of the first of the election campaign’s two debates. It is held in Atlanta, Georgia during the night of Friday Swedish time. The news channel CNN, which organizes the event, further announces that each candidate’s place on stage is decided by flipping a penny. Only paper, pen and a bottle of water may be present in the lectern. And during the 90-minute broadcast’s two commercial breaks, the debaters are not allowed to have contact with their colleagues. This means that training is essential. You must be ready for the unthinkable. The goal of the (pre)process is to prepare President Biden for real horrors to come out of Donald Trump’s mouth, says Kate Bedingfield, former White House communications director and one of those who worked with Joe Biden before the 2020 debates, to The New York Times . “Filled with chemicals” Trump advisor Jason Miller has already shown that the language can be harsh. “He (Trump) does not need to be programmed by his staff or filled with chemicals unlike Joe Biden,” he said in a statement according to the Politico news site. Instead, Trump kills two birds with one stone, according to Miller. He prepares by asking questions of politicians and experts – several of whom have been mentioned in the speculation about who Trump will choose as his vice presidential candidate. “President Trump does a number of tough interviews every week and delivers long campaign speeches standing up at mass meetings, which shows endurance at the elite level,” says Miller, who has worked with the former president since the 2016 election campaign. will give the other the boot for his age – a recurring theme during the election campaign. Democrat Joe Biden is 81 years old, four years older than Trump. In recent weeks, Republicans have released several video clips questioning his mental health. Biden, for his part, describes Trump in campaign videos as a selfish man and recalls that he was recently convicted of accounting crimes. The president has been shuttling between the White House, D-Day celebrations in France, the G7 meeting in Italy, campaign rallies in California and Delaware, where a trial was held against his son Hunter. But over the weekend, he retreated to the presidential retreat at Camp David with longtime adviser Ron Klein for debate preparations. The two are expected to focus extra on the economy, immigration, the abortion issue and the world’s wars, topics that are expected to dominate the election campaign.
