Last night President Biden and former president Donald Trump took to the debate stage. Hosted by CNN, the conversation focused more on personal attacks than policy.
Throughout the night, Trump rattled off strings of lies that largely went unchecked. Biden, meanwhile, sounded meandering and unsteady, raising questions about his fitness as a candidate.
