The upcoming debate between Biden and Trump in Atlanta is sure to be a unique experience for both candidates. Unlike previous debates, this one will feature commercial breaks and the absence of a live audience. Despite these differences, one key topic that is likely to be discussed by the candidates is their stances on the economy.
Trump has received high marks from voters for his handling of the economy, with a Wall Street Journal poll in March showing that most voters trust him to bring down inflation better than Biden. In 2017, Trump and Republicans passed a $1.5 trillion tax overhaul that is set to expire in 2025 during the next president’s term.
Biden has proposed boosting the U.S. economy from the middle out and the bottom up through his economic plan. This includes funding for infrastructure projects and climate initiatives, as well as raising the minimum corporate tax to 21%, restoring the Child Tax Credit, making the healthcare tax credit permanent, and providing a $400-a-month tax credit to new home buyers for two years to reduce mortgage costs.
The differences in economic policy between Biden and Trump are likely to be a central focus of the debate, providing valuable information for voters as they consider their choices in the upcoming election. Live updates from CNN will keep viewers informed and engaged throughout the event.
