Biden and Trump Clash in 2024 Debate

During the first presidential debate of the 2024 campaign, President Joe Biden labeled former President Donald Trump a 'convicted felon,' referencing Trump's recent conviction for concealing business records. Trump retaliated by highlighting the criminal conviction of Biden's son, Hunter, for lying about drug use to purchase a firearm. The debate, held in Georgia, is critical as both candidates strive to gain momentum in a closely contested race, with Black voters identified as a pivotal demographic. A recent poll indicates Biden has substantial support from Black voters, while Trump also maintains significant backing. Meanwhile, barbershop patrons in West Sacramento shared mixed opinions on the debate's relevance but expressed concerns over healthcare, student loans, and taxes. Polling data suggests that voter expectations are low for both candidates, although the debate could sway public opinion in this tightly matched election.
