The first debate of the 2024 US presidential election is set for June 27 in US Eastern Time, with former President Trump and current President Biden going head-to-head once again. The 90-minute debate will revolve around issues such as Biden's handling of wars in Russia-Ukraine and the Middle East, and Trump facing conviction and questions about his eligibility to run. Biden currently leads Trump by two percentage points in the latest polls but lags in fundraising, trailing by $81 million. The debate will also touch on the economy, immigration, and inflation, with Biden announcing new immigration policies allowing undocumented spouses and children under 21 to obtain legal status, which Trump harshly criticizes and pledges to revoke if elected.
