Biden and Trump to face off at TV presidential debate

President Joe Biden and Republican former President Donald Trump will face off tonight in the first televised debate of the election year, The Telegraph reports.

‌The first debate is being held at CNN’s studios in Atlanta, capital of Georgia, a crucial swing state for the election.

‌The lack of audience is a break with tradition that was specifically requested by Mr Biden’s team.

‌Mr Trump said that Biden was “supposedly afraid of crowds” and said he would prefer a live audience as “it’s just more exciting”.

‌The candidates’ microphones will be deactivated when it is the other’s turn to speak, another request from the Biden team. This follows the first 2020 forum where the conversation was dogged by the candidates’ interruptions and cutting-across.
