Biden and Trump debate over war between Israel and Hamas

Biden and Trump talked about their plans to help end the war in the Middle East.

---

President Joe Biden and his Republican rival, former President Donald Trump, meet for the first debate of the 2024 election in Atlanta, Georgia, a state expected to play a pivotal role in November after it tipped the scales in Biden's favor in 2020.

Thursday night, Biden, the Democratic incumbent, gets the chance to reassure voters that, at 81, he’s capable of guiding the U.S. through a range of challenges. The 78-year-old Trump, meanwhile, could use the moment to try to move past his felony conviction in New York and convince an audience of tens of millions that he’s temperamentally suited to return to the Oval Office.

The debate is being hosted by CNN.

is America running out of smart people to replace these two people???

[Maryam-eglg]

There is a clear loser out of this debate. It wasn't Trump, it wasn't Biden. It was the American people.
333 million citizens. These 2 are the best we have. The cream of the crop. How is this possible.

[Cyberquak]

They both are clowns. America needs to get rid of this stupid two party system. This is not a democracy

[Bebe]

Democrats, please let Joe Biden retire with some dignity.

[ichigo]

They compete to see who serves Satan best

[MolGaeilge]

>I supported Israel the most
>No I will support Israel harder

How is everybody's tap water in the US?

[roykanwa]

American first? Nop its Israel first 😂😂😂

[dimitrijestankovic]

English is not my first language, I speak pretty well though, but I can barely understand Biden when he speaks.

[hnc]

“He’s become like a Palestinian”. It clearly sounds like Trump doesn’t like Palestinians and he’s trying to criticise Biden by comparing him to one. Or am I missing something??

[daran]

As a German commentator put it: one stumbles, the other lies.

[forrestmalcom]

Both of these guys are bought by AIPAC 😂

[Its_Zeus_]

Who you gonna vote for Zionist A or Zionist B?

[abduleh]

Both fighting for a spot that’s owned by daddy natenyahu

[imrazali]

Hes like a Palestinian what does that mean exactly?

[sandycheeks]

Neither candidate at this point!!! 😢America’s in serious trouble.

[ilovereadingthehistoryofUSAinc]

What about hind rajab? Aljazeera covered it

[consciouscollector]

People of the USA should rise up and change their laws so another candidate/s in middle to run. Being forced to choose over these two is the biggest slap in the face taxpayers can get

[Zopiexx]

Can we have a new president instead of these 2 clowns?

[gamerhalim]

I as Indonesia 🇮🇩 say Israel 🇮🇱 and Palestine 🇵🇸 stop the war. Russia 🇷🇺 and Ukraine 🇺🇦 stop the war. We didn't choose any of them, but we chose to help the people there affected by the war.

[falishassan]

Why can't we have a president who cares about American people's future. Why are we always worried about another country like israel. Take care American people's first not foreign country
