President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump faced each other in a historic debate on Thursday night.

It was the first time in history that a sitting US president faced a former president in a debate. It was also the first debate since 2020 featuring either Biden, who did not face a serious challenge for the Democratic nomination, or Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee who skipped all the GOP debates during primary season.

The roughly 90-minute debate took place at CNN's studios in Atlanta, and it was moderated by Jake Tapper and Dana Bash. There wasn't an audience — an anomaly in debates between presidential candidates.

This was also the earliest presidential debate in US history. Debates between general election candidates have always started in September or early October.
