President Biden struggled through his first debate of the 2024 campaign against Donald J. Trump, meandering and mumbling through answers as the former president pressed his case for a second term with limited resistance from his rival.
The debate was marked by Trump’s aggressive questioning of Biden’s policies and leadership, with the former president often dominating the conversation with his strong rhetoric and forceful presence on stage.
Despite Biden’s attempts to push back against Trump’s attacks, many commentators and viewers noted that the current president appeared flustered and unprepared for the intensity of the debate.
As the 2024 campaign heats up, it remains to be seen how Biden will respond to the challenges posed by Trump and whether he can regain his footing in future debates.
