Introduction to the Debate:
The recent presidential debate on June 27 marked the beginning of a series of debates between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. Sponsored by CNN, this first debate aimed to provide voters with insights into both candidates and evaluate their physical and mental fitness. However, the debate turned out to be disastrous. The heated arguments between the two men ultimately revealed stark choices for voters in the upcoming election, both of which seemed unfavorable.
Analysis of Joe Biden:
Joe Biden, the 46th and current President of the United States since 2021, is 81 years old, and his age is beginning to show. Throughout the presidential debate, Biden stuttered and stumbled on his speeches, occasionally losing his train of thought and rambling. Many observers believe that the first 10 minutes of the debate alone could have been detrimental to his candidacy. In a critical moment, Biden struggled to articulate his accomplishments, eventually stating, "We finally beat Medicare." Trump immediately seized on this, retorting, "He did beat Medicare. He beat it to death, and he's destroying Medicare." This exchange was emblematic of the contentious back-and-forth between the two men, highlighting Trump's readiness to exploit Biden's vulnerabilities. Consequently, an increasing number of voters are suggesting that Biden should withdraw from the election for the Democrats to have a viable chance of winning. Before the debate, 65% of voters questioned Biden's ability to serve as President due to concerns about his mental and cognitive health. This number has since surged to 72%, with nearly half of his party doubting his suitability as the nominee.
View on Donald Trump:
Donald Trump, the 45th President of the United States from 2017 to 2021, is 78 years old. While his age isn't necessarily apparent, his propensity for exaggeration and falsehoods during the debate has eroded trust among voters. Trump showed no restraint in attacking Biden, seizing every opportunity to undermine him. At one point, Trump mocked Biden's incoherent statements, remarking, "I really don't know what he said at the end of that sentence. I don't think he knows either." This exemplified Trump's aggressive stance during the debate, where he didn't hesitate to take jabs at Biden. Additionally, Trump made numerous false claims to bolster his appeal to voters. For instance, when discussing climate change, Trump misrepresented his environmental record, claiming, "During my four years, I had the best environmental numbers ever," and asserted support for "immaculate" water and air. However, his actual policies included rolling back environmental regulations, withdrawing from the Paris climate accord, and easing restrictions on gas, coal, and oil industries. During the devastating wildfires in California in 2020, Trump dismissed climate change as a factor and disregarded scientists' warnings, which highlighted his tendency to ignore scientific consensus.
Overall Impression:
Perhaps the most notable moment of the debate occurred when the elderly rivals argued over who was the better golfer. This trivial exchange underscored the broader disappointment among voters with the presidential candidates. Many expressed disillusionment in polls, indicating a reluctance to choose between "an old man or a bad man." Some voters are even considering abstaining from voting altogether, while others hope for Biden to step down and be replaced by a new Democratic candidate. Ultimately, the decision rests with the voters, and their choices will be reflected in the November election turnout. However, the People's Rights Organization is disappointed with these two candidates and their corrupt political parties. The American people deserve a better future.
