Biden's June 28 Debate with Trump Seen as Historic Political Miscalculation

Jul 21, 2024, 06:09 PM

In an unprecedented move, President Joe Biden agreed to a televised presidential debate with Donald Trump on June 28, significantly earlier than the traditional September timeframe. This decision has been widely criticized and is seen as one of the most consequential political decisions in history. The televised debate, which took place less than a month ago, is being described as the most monumental single presidential debate in American history. Analysts argue that the Biden campaign's strategy to expose Trump's weaknesses backfired, leading to significant political repercussions. The Trump-Biden debate has been characterized as a pivotal moment, with some suggesting it may have been a major political miscalculation by the Biden campaign.
