The presidential debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump is for sure going to be one for the history books, as this will probably cement who will be president and shape the United States for the next 4 years. Let’s dive into some of the reasons voters will elect these two leaders.
First, let’s take a look at Trump. His usual policies over the past 8 years include invalidating abortion, keeping firearms legalized, reducing illegal immigration drastically, and quelling LGBTQIA+. As the 45th president, he has made himself quite popular with Republican voters as shown in the Republican primary elections, with the exception of Vermont and D.C. (who voted in favor of Nikki Haley).
Biden has similar effectiveness on the Democratic side. Except for American Samoa, all the areas participating in the primary election elected Biden. His policies over the past 4 years have included addressing the COVID-19 situation in 2020, taking a no-hands-on stance on the illegal immigration issue, and helping Ukraine and Israel in their wars with Russia and Hamas, respectively.
However, in the wake of the debate, these two major presidential candidates are re-doing a portion of their policy. Biden said on June 5th that there would be an asylum ban for migrants coming from the US-Mexico border, and on Thursday Trump announced he would like to see green cards being given to students just out of university.
This debate is sure to clean up some of the chaos in Trump’s and Biden’s policies, while also adding new drama. People are expecting a slight debate on the two's age and "mental fitness." Let’s see what Thursday, June 27 brings us.
Fact of the Day (Readers' Digest): People call emergency services for the craziest things. In the United Kingdom, the police released a report of one woman who had called 999 because her ice cream didn't have enough sprinkles. She said "there were bits on one side and none on the other," and became even more upset when the ice cream truck man didn't give her money back.
