After meeting last month in perhaps the most chaotic debate in modern history, President Donald Trump and his Democratic rival, Joe Biden, will take the stage today to give it another go
Since the last debate, Trump was diagnosed with and hospitalised for COVID-19. The Republican has cast the virus and his own infection in positive terms, resumed holding large campaign rallies and attacked the government's top infectious-disease expert, Dr Anthony Fauci.
Biden aides anticipate Trump will again level personal attacks during the debate. The Democrat is expected to try to redirect to his core argument that Trump is unfit for the job.Following a summer marked by protests across the country over racial injustice, Trump has repeatedly portrayed himself as a greater champion for Black Americans than Biden is while emphasising a law-and-order theme.
Look for the Democrat to continue hitting those themes while Trump casts Biden as responsible for helping send millions of black Americans to prison with a 1994 crime law when Biden was a senator.Credit:Look for Trump to continue promoting his "America First" policies, which have pulled the US out of multilateral agreements that he maintains were not in the country's interests.
