United Kingdom Voters

Joe Biden has announced that he is willing to debate Donald Trump twice before the 5 November US election. Taking to social media, the president said that he beat Mr Trump both times as the pair went head-to-head in 2020, before laying down a challenge for his Republican rival. Hes acting like he wants to debate me again. Well, make my day, pal, Mr Biden said. The presidents move shows he is willing to take some calculated risks to boost his opinion poll numbers in a race in which he is trailing Mr Trump in key battleground states, as voters remain concerned about his age and his handling of the economy.

Joe Biden fired back at Donald Trumps suggestion that China is eating our lunch as he unveiled steep tariff increases on an array of Chinese imports on Tuesday 14 May. The US president has targeted electric vehicle batteries, computer chips and medical products, risking an election-year standoff with Beijing in a bid to woo voters who give his economic policies low marks. After making a speech at the White House, Mr Biden was challenged on comments from his Republican predecessor. Trump said today that China is eating our lunch, what do you say in response? a reporter asked. Mr Biden fired back: Hes been feeding them a long time.
