Presidential Election Debate: Trump-Biden blame-game on US fiscal stimulus deal

On the topic of US fiscal stimulus, which is of interest for the markets lately, President Trump said that he has already approved three proposals.

House Speaker and Democrat Nancy Pelosi doesn’t want to pass the aid bill, as she wants some victory on the November 3 election day.

Trump and Biden are playing the blame-game on not reaching a dual stimulus deal so far.

On the issue of raising minimum wages to support small businesses, Biden said ‘we should bail them out now.’

Trump said that raising minimum wages should be a state option.

It’s not true that if you raise minimum wages, businesses go out of business, Biden argued.
