Joe Biden and Donald Trump last night clashed during a chaotic first debate of the 2024 US election campaign.
Expectations were set: immigration, jobs, inflation, and age were expected to take centre stage as Joe Biden debated his arch-rival Donald Trump.
This was the first presidential debate where the two oldest candidates in the history of America, Biden at 81 and Trump at 78, faced off, giving voters a rare side-by-side look.
Instead, a hoarse-sounding Biden stumbled over his words at times, especially in the early stages of the debate.
