Biden-Trump's first presidential debate could change everything. Here's what you need to know -- and how to watch.

President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump are taking the stage in Atlanta on Thursday for the first 2024 presidential debate.

The first debate in U.S. history between a sitting president and former president is expected to be a defining moment for Biden, 81, and Trump, 78, both of whom have drawn criticism over their advanced age and opposing views on immigration, abortion, the war in Gaza and more.

The approach has changed significantly since their last face-off in 2020. Both candidates have accepted new rules and a fresh format for this debate, which will not include a studio audience and requires that their microphones be muted when the other is speaking.

That’s not all viewers can expect to see. Here is everything you need to know about the first presidential debate between Biden and Trump.

1. I'd love to know why they think some people are still "undecided"

This election will be the least "undecided" in my lifetime. People's minds have been made up since 2021, and many were made up since 2016. Chump cannot be allowed back in the White House again. Ever!

Repukes are thinking the same thing, but unfortunately they're too chickenshit to say it out loud.

2. You seem to be ignoring how stupid people are.

3. Yes they are stupid, but they aren't undecided

Some are still going to vote for Chump. My point is that they won't wait until the first of November to make up their minds. None of us will. It's the media trying to make this into a horse race where none exists.

4. I know polling is not generally accurate, but some trends are.

And "Independents" (yes, they are dumb), have shown a sizable shift in the last couple of weeks.

5. Quote, "I know polling is not generally accurate, but some trends are"

Yep.

I find it interesting that while much of the media spent a lot of time puttering around the novelty of a Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. candidacy, making it appear like he was some legitimate, third party distraction for Democrats that would get it fixed for Trump, and pushing polling numbers that he was allegedly getting of upwards of 25% of the vote, he didn't actually have high enough numbers in the CNN rules to make this debate. And I think the threshold was 5%.
