In a highly anticipated event, President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump clashed on a range of issues during their first debate of the 2024 presidential election cycle.
The debate, which took place on Thursday, June 27, in Atlanta, was marked by insults, tension, and heated exchanges over key topics such as the economy, immigration, and abortion. Both candidates presented starkly different visions for America's future, with Biden accusing Trump of divisiveness and Trump criticizing Biden's policies for inflation and border security challenges. The debate also highlighted the personal animosity between the two, setting a contentious tone for the upcoming election campaign.
This event marks a significant moment as the United States enters another election season, with both parties vying to sway voters in what promises to be a closely contested race.

If insults and heated exchanges dominate political debates, what impact do you think this has on young voters' perceptions of politics?

It's just going to be more discouraging than it already is.

That politicians are narcissists incapable of doing what is best for the citizens.
@9PXTC9D2yrs2Y
I'm a young voter myself and it has polarized me against both Trump and Biden. It has strengthened my views against the two party system.

poor debating skills shouldnt be pushed on the youth

How would you feel if debates focused more on policy specifics than personal attacks, and do you think this would change your opinion on a candidate?
@9PV74M32yrs2Y
The election wouldn't be close, Biden would win the election from a purely politcal and policy analysis viewpoint. Biden is not a charismatic or captivating leader, but he is an incredible policymaker. Biden's signing of the CHIPS Act or the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act or the Respect for Marriage Act are a few examples of Biden's excellence as a policymaker, like that of LBJ for example.
