Trump and Biden exchanged views on inflation, jobs and tax policy. The White House leader began listing what he considers the economic successes of his presidency, while saying “there’s still a lot to do.” Trump countered that inflation is “killing” America.
Not without a fight

Let’s start with Trump. The obnoxious politician and businessman blamed Biden for the war in Ukraine, assured him that resources had been exhausted and reiterated that only he could stop the war.
“Putin’s conditions on Ukraine are unacceptable. If the US “had a leader” the war would not have started and the US would not have won the Ukraine war with Russia if it was led by someone Putin respected. It’s resources and it’s sad, I want to say they’ve lost a lot of people, the Russian Federation has taken a lot of land under me. – No, the war in Ukraine would not have started if I were the president.– Key theses voiced by Trump.
Biden is not far behind. The current president of the United States called Trump’s comments about Russia’s war against Ukraine “nonsense” and called Putin a war criminal.
“Putin is a war criminal who has killed thousands and thousands of people. Putin wants to restore what was once part of the Soviet empire; if you want the Third World, elect Trump.“, – said Biden.
Sharp statements from Biden and Trump
Donald Trump also asserted that Europe spends far less on supporting Ukraine than the United States, and criticized Biden for supporting Ukraine financially. He said such costs were “unnecessary”, calling Volodymyr Zelenskyi a “best seller”.
“Every time Zelensky comes to America, he takes $60 billion in his pocket.” – Trump reminded.
Trump, however, called Putin’s terms to end the war “unacceptable” and reiterated that he would “resolve the conflict” between Russia and Ukraine before taking office.
We will remind you that the Kremlin leader called his conditions “peace”. They include Kiev’s rejection of plans to join NATO, nuclear-free status and the complete withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from areas Russia has included in its constitution.
We are talking about Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhya and Kherson regions. Well, Crimea too. At the same time, Biden said that if Russia wins in Ukraine, it will threaten other European countries.
“What will happen to Poland? What will happen to NATO countries: in the future, not only Ukraine, but also the countries of Europe may be attacked by Russia”– Threatened Biden.

Trump has denied it. In turn, he called Biden’s actions “absolutely criminal” and said Biden was “getting money from China” and a “Manchurian candidate” without providing any evidence.
About Israel
The topic of Israel was also overlooked. Biden said all members of the Group of Seven supported his plan for war: hostage release, ceasefire:
“The only thing I don’t support about Israel is the bombs they use in densely populated areas.” The politician insisted.
Trump responded that Biden had “become a Palestinian” and that “Hamas only wants to keep fighting” and Israel should be allowed to “finish the job.”
Earlier, Biden said he supports the idea of coexistence between Israel and Palestine, but that Hamas does not represent the interests of the Palestinians. Trump expressed doubt that the two countries could live in peace.

Experts in debate
According to international affairs expert Oleksandr Krayev, Trump was more energetic, younger and in some ways even stronger during his speech at the debate.
“However, he lied, manipulated and failed to please independents. Biden failed to fulfill his basic mission of not looking that old, so everything else for him will be drowned out in this story.”
A spokeswoman for the Ukrainian Congress of America said the audience could not get clear explanations of the two candidates’ positions on Ukraine. Andriy Dobriansky. In a comment to the Ukrainian service of the Voice of America, Dobriansky noted, “The question of Ukraine is sometimes confused with Israel – not by the moderators, but during the answers – so we do not really get a clear explanation of the future policy of the two presidential administrations regarding Ukraine.”
Ambassador Daniel Kurtzer, a professor of Middle East political studies, said Trump’s comments on Ukraine were “absurd” and would cause concern among US allies. His comments have been cited by Princeton University
“Trump’s ludicrous comments about Ukraine — that he would end the war before he takes office — could raise concerns among our allies, recalling Trump’s intention to withdraw from NATO, as well as the Paris climate accords and nuclear deal. Over Iran“, the message says.
During the debate, Trump confirmed his suspicions about Zelenskyi, but did not send signals that the former US president might refuse to support Ukraine, according to Michael Kimmage, dean of the Catholic University of America in Washington. But Biden, the analyst, has not backed down from his policy and insists that he has “clearly declared his commitment to Ukraine’s security, European security, the fight against Russian aggression and tyranny.” Kimmage, however, points out that Biden has been unable to articulate his views effectively.
