The debate, marked by sharp exchanges and intense scrutiny, provided a platform for both candidates to address concerns about their physical and mental capacities to lead the nation.

He countered these concerns by highlighting his recent legislative achievements and robust campaign schedule, aiming to demonstrate his vitality and readiness for another term. "My record speaks for itself," Biden asserted, emphasizing his experience and accomplishments in office.

Former President Trump, aged 78, also faced scrutiny regarding his fitness. Known for his energetic campaign style, Trump sought to project an image of vigor and resilience.

Both candidates aimed to reassure voters of their ability to lead effectively despite their advanced years. The evening underscored the increasing relevance of health and fitness in political leadership, particularly as the nation grapples with significant challenges both domestically and globally.

As the campaign progresses, the focus on age and fitness is likely to continue, with voters keenly evaluating the candidates' capabilities to manage the demands of the presidency. The debate has set the stage for a rigorous campaign season, with both Biden and Trump striving to prove their readiness to govern in these pivotal times.
