Thursday / Friday, October 22/23 Michelle Obama podcast



Debate 

 

The second and final presidential debate was far less chaotic than the first. Maybe it was because new rules allowed muting of candidates' mics when the other was speaking, or because President Trump’s advisers urged him to play it cool during one of the last major events of the election season. 


Asked about the pandemic, Trump argued the situation could be a lot worse and that the virus is “going away” despite surging numbers around the country. He also tried to find traction with unsubstantiated and convoluted claims about Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, which have failed to manifest into the October surprise many Trump supporters hoped for. 


Trump also cast Joe Biden as a typical politician who hasn’t solved major issues during his decades in office. For his part, Biden talked about moving away from an oil-based economy and increasing the minimum wage. He also said the Trump administration’s practice of separating families at the southern border has made the US a “laughingstock” on the world stage.
