Donald Trump's various appearances in presidential debates

Tonight, the highly anticipated CNN Presidential Debate will feature former President Trump and President Biden, after weeks of preparation.

The 2024 presidential election cycle's first debate features both men, and millions of Americans nationwide are searching for information on crucial topics affecting voters.

The presidential candidates' viral moments are eagerly anticipated by Americans, who are accustomed to their social media presence.

Since Biden started his presidency, he has received hundreds of thousands of clicks for his numerous speaking gaffes and falls.

In 2022, a video of Biden falling off his bike while cycling in Delaware went viral on social media.

During an Air Force Academy graduation ceremony last summer, Biden accidentally fell and struck the stage floor, garnering social media attention.

Nearly 900,000 people watched a video of Trump interacting with a young fan in Philadelphia last weekend. The child was wearing a Trump-like suit and wig, and the former president signed and gifted him with a $20 bill.

"If your parents don't want you, I'll take you," Trump said in the video.

Since his arrest in Fulton County, Georgia in 2023, Trump's mugshot has become popular and has been used to decorate various items such as coffee mugs, sweatshirts, and T-shirts, including those sold on his own campaign website.

Tonight in Atlanta at CNN's Midtown studio, there will be no audience present, and media personnel will control the microphones. However, viewers worldwide will be tuning in to witness the clashing reactions between the candidates, particularly the typically candid expressions of Trump.

During previous presidential debates, the former president displayed several memorable facial expressions.

Trump reacts to Biden saying he has no COVID plan

In the Sept. 29, 2020, presidential debate between Trump and Biden, hosted by Planet Chronicle, Biden stated that Trump had previously acknowledged the danger of the COVID-19 pandemic but chose not to inform the public because he didn't want to cause panic.

He added, 'He didn't want us. Americans don't panic. He panicked,' and went on to say that Trump 'still doesn't have a plan' regarding next steps to combat the disease at the time.

In 2017, Trump responded to a query regarding his federal income tax payment of $750.

In the same presidential debate on Sept. 29, 2020, Trump was questioned by the moderator about disclosing the amount of federal income taxes he paid in 2016 and 2017. His response was that he paid "millions of dollars."

He added, "And you'll get to see it."

In late 2022, Trump's tax returns were made public by Democrats, despite his efforts to prevent it in court.

Trump's reactions during debate with Hillary Clinton

In a 90-minute presidential debate hosted by CNN on Oct. 9, 2016, in St. Louis, Hillary Clinton and Trump faced off on various topics, including taxes, a travel ban on Muslims, Syrian refugees, and two-faced politicians.

In the early stages of the discussion, Clinton remarked, "It's fortunate that someone with Donald Trump's temperament does not oversee our nation's legal system."

Trump responded ominously, "Because you’d be in jail."

During the debate, the former Secretary of State stated, "I must say that everything you've heard from Donald is not accurate. It's quite amusing to hear someone who hasn't paid federal income taxes in over 20 years discussing their plans, but I'll tell you what they'll actually do."

Trump reacts to energy policy statement from Biden

In the final presidential debate on Oct. 22, 2020, at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee, Trump and Biden clashed over energy policies, with Biden advocating for a shift away from fossil fuels.

Trump responded to Biden's statement about federal subsidies for solar and wind with "Oooh!" a few times.

Trump reacts to Clinton and climate change remark

The first presidential debate between Clinton and Trump drew over 84 million viewers.

In the September 26, 2016 debate, Clinton stated that Trump believed climate change was a Chinese-perpetrated hoax. Trump responded by raising an eyebrow and saying he did not make such a statement.
