Settling the Score or Sparring for Show?

In a high-stakes clash that captivated the nation, President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump squared off in the first presidential debate of the 2024 election cycle on Thursday night. The 90-minute face-off marked the first time the two political titans had been in the same room since Biden's inauguration more than 1300 days ago.

The debate, held in Atlanta, was as heated and contentious as many had anticipated. Biden, 79, and Trump, 76, traded barbs and accusations on a wide range of issues, including the economy, immigration, and foreign policy.

Migrants seeking asylum at a Tijuana, Mexico, shelter watched the debate with a mix of hope and trepidation. Their thoughts and reactions offer a unique perspective on the high-stakes race.
