President Biden and former President Donald Trump hit the debate stage Thursday night in Atlanta. It was a rather unusual debate with no studio audience. One of the issues brought up by the CNN moderators was the January 6th Capitol riot. Biden said Trump encouraged the crowd to go to Capitol Hill and did nothing for hours during the riot. He added that Trump wants to commute the sentences of those convicted in the attack. Trump pushed back arguing he told his supporters to protest “peacefully and patriotically.”

The first presidential debate of 2024 was arguably unlike anything the nation has seen before. President Biden stumbled at times during the night, which reportedly is sparking concerns among Democrats over his age and ability to take on Donald Trump in November. Meanwhile, Trump seemed to try and deflect his actions during the attack on the U.S. Capitol, ignored some questions, and dismissed accusations that he had an affair with porn star Stormy Daniels.

Both candidates hurled personal insults at one another and accused each other of being the “worst president” in U.S. history. The debate even devolved into jabs over age and a challenge to a golf match.

Biden was asked about being 81-years-old and also being the oldest president ever if he wins re-election. Biden said Trump is only a few years younger than him, “but a lot less competent.” Trump who is 78, claimed he took two cognitive tests adding that he’s “very good shape.” The two candidates also sparred over who is better at golf. Trump challenged Biden to a golf match, which Biden agreed to on the condition Trump “carry [his] own bag.”
