Analysis: Usually, the incumbent comes into the first debate with a lead and no interest in shaking up the race. President Trump and Biden enter Tuesday's faceoff with those roles reversed.

over President Barack Obama following their first matchup in October 2012. And in a closely-contested race likely to be defined by a relatively small number of voters in a limited set of swing states, marginal shifts may land larger than they appear.

"In essence, Biden and Trump are battling over a small, 2-yard stretch of a 100-yard football field," Melissa K. Miller, a political science professor at Bowling Green State University in Ohio, said.

The key issues for those voters, according to Miller and strategists in both parties, revolve around security — both economic and physical. For Trump, that means touting the pre-coronavirus performance of the economy under his watch as an indication of how it would perform in a second term, and bashing Biden's past and platform.

"President Trump prepares for debates every day by being president and building an excellent record to run on for re-election," Tim Murtaugh, communications director for the Trump campaign, said.

So you think

In fact, here's Team Joe Biden's Campaign & DNC Crime Family National Strategy in the works to disenfranchise millions of legitimate American Votes in favor of President Trump.

We know the media will be there to rescue Biden if he has a bad first debate. Obama bombed in the first debate in 2012 and the media did everything they could to quickly rehabilitate him.

Give me a break. All Joe has to do is not mess up his introduction and the media will give him a tongue bath. This is pathetic. Just remember Joe loves the 120 MILLION who died from COVID.

I see you have switched to the No Brain Comedy Network Couldn’t tell

Joe could sit there smoking a joint and humming, I’d still vote for him.

According to fake NBC news.

NBC News talks like the swamp. There are no more surprises for Trump. The media has done the tax bombshell half a dozen times. Trump has faced lies galore for 5 years and survived them all. Meanwhile Biden can't even think straight and hasn't faced any media pressure.

ABC NEWS: 'In Pennsylvania, advantage Biden with a big boost from women- more than 2-1 Biden lead in the Philadelphia suburbs...'

Only in your fake polls NBC!!🙄

The same crap you were talking about 4 years ago when Hillary took a hit and I think it was mostly due to NBC!!

Fact Check: Joe Biden has not been in washington for 180 years like he claims.

‘Soft bigotry’ = TrumpIsARacist

We as a country are so much better than than the character of this president. Why so many want to follow the lowest of the low is a testimony to what the propaganda machine can do to us as a society. Don't let big money lobbyists destroy us! - The Brief -

Sure, .

security briefings to djt,,is a waste & causes harm to our national security,,we brief djt/. then djt briefs russia & putin amongst other dicktators/.

‘Bigotry’..... what?!!

According to yalls shitty ass poles that keep being wrong

Tonight is when the train will officially derail! I anticipate many people will tune in solely for the farce that we have now entered as a nation. Vote anyway!

Ted Cruz was right about one thing--- EVERYONE should pay a flat tax of 10%, with NO WRITE OFFS, NO NOTHING.

Such a lie.

Azerbaijan and Turkey use terrorists from Syria. I hope the world will open its eyes and see that aggression gives rise to aggression, violence to violence. Today evil is in Armenia and in Artsakh, and tomorrow it will be at your doors StopAzerbaijaniAgression

Morning_Joe Morning_Joe This corrupt confused p.o.s. Is going to get destroyed. If Chris Wallace does his job. Morning_Joe The Republican 45 commercial using 2016 clips from Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Obama & Hillary to argue for 'an up or down vote' on Barrett's confirmation is an ugly and cynical ad.
