The first faceoff Tuesday features two septuagenarians prone to verbal stumbles and seeing them side by side could affect voter perceptions.

WASHINGTON — The first debate between Republican President Donald Trump and Democrat Joe Biden is unlikely to change the minds of the vast majority of the American electorate who have already decided whom they support and say they can't be swayed.

But the contest remains close in key battleground states, like Florida and North Carolina. And some voters will be watching with an eye to making a final choice. Twenty-nine percent of Americans said in a recent NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll that debates are extremely important or very important to their votes.

Story continuesHistorically, debates have proven to allow a candidate to project an image, said Barbara Perry, a professor and director of presidential studies at the University of Virginia's Miller Center. But Trump continues to be more trusted than Biden on the economy, which often ranks as the top voter concern and will be a debate topic. The president may seek to use the economy to appeal to undecided voters who are worried about their pocketbooks. Biden will be trying to make up ground on the economy.

In 1992, a strong debate answer about the economy rebranded Bill Clinton"as a caring, empathic public servant, instead of a draft-dodging womanizer," and"retrenched Bush 41 as a WASPy elitist" in the minds of many voters, Perry said.

Eric Trump: Trump Tax Story Is ‘IRS Scandal Of This Generation’Trump said the focus should be on the IRS, not his father, because they targeted the president for “doing a great job.” 🙏 TrumpFraud Does anyone expect him to say much else? He’ll probably go down with his daddy, is scared as $!+ and can’t logically come up with anything better (even lies) to defend against this. I mean he could ask his dad to just release the tax returns to prove it’s all fake, so why not?
