People around the world have been reacting to the debate between the two main candidates for president in the United States. President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden met Tuesday night in Cleveland, Ohio, for the first of three planned debates. Many people overseas were critical of the language the candidates used during the 90-minute-long event. The two men insulted each other with name-calling and personal attacks. Speaking to Biden, Trump said,” I’ve done more things in 47 months [as president] than you’ve done in 47 years” as a U.S. senator and vice president under former President Barack Obama. Biden described Trump as “the worst president America has ever had.” Several times, the former vice president called him “a clown.” The Associated Press reports that the candidates’ comments and actions could have a big effect on America’s international image.
