Political science professor analyzes Biden and Trump performances in debate
SUMMARY: Dr. Brian Shoup, head of Mississippi State University's political science department, discussed the recent debate. He believes former President Trump had a stronger performance, appearing more energetic, while President Biden seemed to stumble at times. Both candidates struggled to stay on topic, and the moderators often had to redirect them. Shoup noted concerns among Democrats regarding Biden's long-term viability, whereas Trump remains a solid figure for Republicans. He emphasized the importance of voters critically analyzing the candidates' policies. The debate's format, including the mute button, did not seem to significantly impact the discussion. Shoup suggested future debates could alter public perception.

Presidential debate is a hot topic
SUMMARY: In Atlanta, a historic debate is set to take place between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, marking the earliest general election matchup in history. Ahead of the debate, both candidates have launched aggressive TV ads targeting each other's fitness to serve and key issues such as the economy, crime, and abortion. For the first time, candidate microphones will be muted when it's not their turn to speak, and there will be no audience. This debate occurs before either candidate has formally accepted their party's nomination, potentially creating early voter impressions. Political analyst Marc Sandalow emphasizes the high stakes of this closely-polling election.
