The campaigns prep for the debate

The first presidential debate of the election is this Tuesday night. President Donald Trump has been preparing to veer attention towards the recent nomination of Amy Coney Barrett and away from the pandemic. Joe Biden will try to emphasize the administration's handling of the pandemic and the death toll of 200,000. Plus, a New York Times investigation found President Donald Trump paid $750 in federal income taxes in 2016 and 2017. And, the coronavirus vaccine isn't being tested on children.
