For the first time in four years, they faced each other ahead of the November 5 election.Both 81-year-old Biden and 78-year-old Trump have been in a lot of trouble in this debate.In such a debate they wanted until a breakout moment. But later they did not get it. Despite taking the debate stage, Biden and Trump did not shake hands according to tradition. The two did not shake hands during the 2020 presidential debate due to Covid-19 restrictions.At the beginning of the debate comes the issue of economy. After that, Biden and Trump engaged in a debate on abortion rights, taxes, health care and the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan. They accused each other of lying and tried to attack each other while talking about various issues. After the debate began, Democratic presidential candidate Biden faced questions about the Israel-Gaza war.Biden is facing opposition from a section of Biden's Democrat supporters on this issue. The question is, what will Biden do to end the war between Hamas and Israel? In response, Biden said, Hamas is not the only one who wants to end this war. Biden expressed his full support for Israel. He talks about eliminating Hamas.Meanwhile, Russia-Ukraine was also discussed in the face-to-face debate in CNN's Atlanta studio.Joe Biden told Trump he believes Vladimir Putin is a 'war criminal'. He also alleged that Putin wants to re-establish the old 'Soviet Empire'.Biden also said, 'Do you think Putin wants to stop the war in Ukraine?...What do you think is happening in Poland, in Belarus, in NATO countries?' We are strong.'CNN host Dana Bash first asked Trump about Putin's conditions for ending the war in Ukraine, but he avoided answering. Then Bash asked Trump for the second time, "Are Putin's terms acceptable to you?" Trump replied, "No, they are not acceptable." Biden also vehemently attacked Donald Trump's criminal convictions during the debate. Biden "insulted" Trump by raising questions about morality. Biden called Trump a convicted felon.In a face-to-face debate, Biden criticized former US President Trump's actions on immigration. He said, under Trump, the children of immigrant mothers have been taken away from them. Children were kept in cages. Separating families is not the right way.Biden was also questioned about his age, he will be 86 when he finishes his second term. He will be the oldest president. In response, Biden said he was once criticized for being the youngest lawmaker and that Trump was "three years younger and far less qualified.""Look at the record," Biden said. Look how I've turned around from the terrible situation he left behind.' Trump, on the other hand, is said to be 78 years old and will be 82 at the end of his second term. In response, Trump said that he is in good health and that he also plays golf at this time.Many Republicans and Democrats who watched the debate closely gave their reactions. Former Democrat Congresswoman Stephanie Murphy said there were moments where Biden showed his age. It was difficult to understand him .But on the other hand, according to him, Donald Trump has made some comments, which are 'not true' and should be verified. He said his concern was Donald Trump's reluctance to say whether he would accept the election results. Former Republican Congresswoman Rodney Davis said the debate was "a clear victory for Donald Trump." "It's unfortunate for Democrats across America that the type of debate has helped President Trump," he said. At the end of the debate, Trump said that the American people are now living in hell. In his words, 'We have been living in hell for three and a half years'. Biden, on the other hand, promised to reduce inflation, an important issue for Americans, in his final speech and said he wants to cut taxes. At the same time, he claimed that Trump will increase taxes. This time the debate is being held in the television studio. While there was audience presence in previous debates, this time it is not like that. As a result, there is no opportunity to see the audience's reactions directly. This action was taken at the request of Biden's campaign team. Biden and Trump participated in the first face-to-face debate on Thursday local time (Friday at 7 am Bangladesh time). Trump spoke for 40 minutes and 12 seconds in the debate of about one and a half hours. On the other hand, Biden spoke for 35 minutes and 41 seconds.
