{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}President Trump said Joe Biden has a unique advantage in the first presidential debate set for Tuesday, during an appearance on the "Brian Kilmeade Show" on Fox News Radio.
The president and the Democratic presidential nominee are set to debate Tuesday, Sept. 29.
When host Brian Kilmeade asked Trump if he thought he had the advantage since he recently appeared on "Fox News Sunday" with the debate moderator Chris Wallace about his record, he responded, "No, I think I'm the one without experience. I've just been doing this for a few years, he's been doing it for 47 years-plus."

"His son and him, he knew everything ... stole money from Russia, this just came out. Three and a half million bucks they got," he added. "He was in charge of Russia, then they say I'm soft on Russia. I'm actually the toughest there ever has been on Russia."
