Joe Biden, Donald Trump Set For Presidential Debate Today

US president, Joe Biden and his Republican party challenger, Donald Trump are set to square off on Thursday night, June 27 at a highly anticipated debate.

American voters are about to have a closer look at the two oldest candidates ever to seek the country’s highest office.

The 90-minute televised debate, the first between a sitting president and a former president, will air at 9 p.m. ET (0100 GMT on Friday) on CNN, and it might have a record breaking viewership after a record 84 million watched Trump’s first debate in 2016 against Hillary Clinton.

The debate will take place more than four months before the Nov. 5 Election Day.

Trump campaign spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt had this to say, “Thursday night is going to be a great opportunity for President Trump to highlight his strength with Joe Biden’s weakness, highlight his record of success with Joe Biden’s record of failures.”

WOW.
