Special Project #1 – U. S. Presidential Debate Compare/Contrast
Donald Trump Joe Biden Student
a. The Supreme Court
Trump states that they have a phenomenal nominee respected by everyone: Justice Barrett would take the supreme court to places: she is a top academic. The reason Trump wants to replace Obama Care is because he has a better option to offer Americans. His healthcare plan is to cut drug prices. He intends to help the people. No matter how Obama care is run, it’s a disaster.

Americans have a right to choose who the supreme court nominee will be.
Justice thinks the affordable care act is not in the constitution. Obama care should be expanded. The president is not concerned with the health of Americans: he is denying them the chance for better health by taking away Obama Care. The president has no plan for healthcare.

Biden is concerned with the threat Justice Barret poses on the Affordable Care Act. I somewhat believe that Americans should be allowed to decide who they want to fill this position. Especially because this is an area that covers the health of Americans.

b. Race Relations & Violence
Trump mentioned that Bidden referred to African Americans as super predators. Trump says he is letting people out of jail. Ended racial sensitivity training because it was racist. He believed the issue of homicide is a party issue. Trump admits he is willing to shut the white supremacist causing chaos in the country. However, he says that the problem is not a right-wing problem but a left-wing problem.

Trump has done virtually nothing to protect African Americans. Instead, he has encouraged racism. There is systematic injustice in the country in education, work, and law enforcement. Biden refers to Trump as racist. He states that the sensitivity trainings were important. The police should regulate how much force they use on unarmed civilians. Riots, chaos, and violence help Trump’s course.

Trump’s idea to end the racial sensitivity training to me was not a good idea. The fact that he says that the trainings were dividing people somewhat seems untrue. This does not mean that Biden is right.
Both candidates were misleading with their statements on what sparkled protests or what causes violent unrest in cities.

c. COVID-19 [Coronavirus]
He argues that had Joe been left to take charge, millions would have died. He claims that the virus outbreak was China’s fault. Because Trump barred countries like Russia, China from going into the U.S, he claims Biden referred to him as racist/xenophobic. He did a phenomenal job by saving thousands of life though he gets terrible press despite all this. The vaccine will be found a lot sooner than expected. Joe could never have done the much Trump did.

Biden states that the President has no plan. Trump knew about the virus being deadly from back in February. However, he never informed Americans about it. President Trump was panicked hence did not take the necessary precaution. The government should place funds for ...
