NASHVILLE (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to come out swinging in Thursday's final presidential debate with Democratic rival Joe Biden to try to close a gap in opinion polls before an election 12 days away.
Trump needs to score some hits in the televised encounter to steady a campaign that is struggling, in part due to his handling of the coronavirus pandemic, which has killed more than 221,000 people in the United States.
Trump, a Republican, trails former vice president Biden significantly in national polls ahead of Election Day, Nov. 3, though the contest is much tighter in some battleground states where the election will likely be decided.
Biden leads Trump by eight percentage points in the latest Reuters/Ipsos national poll, conducted Oct. 20-22. His lead has narrowed slightly over the past few weeks and is back to where it was in September, before Trump was hospitalized with COVID-19.
Relatively few voters have yet to make up their minds, and Trump's window to influence the outcome may be closing. A record 47 million Americans already have cast ballots, eclipsing total early voting from the 2016 election, ahead of the debate in Nashville, Tennessee.
Trump's campaign signaled that the often pugnacious president would attack Biden, 77, for not accomplishing more during his nearly half-century of public service and zero in on what Trump, 74, alleges were corrupt practices by Biden's family.

Nobody.
Well there’s an unbiased Title :)
If civil war comes, and I pray it never does, I want dibs on media centers.
Trevor and Jeff are on some serious drugs to believe what they wrote.
Plenty of time....Pay attention.
The press as we’ve known it in America died this election cycle.
As did my faith in the FBI. Trump needs to win and clean house there.
Gonna be alot of competition for those coordinates.
Well haven’t you heard? There is “no evidence.” The media can’t even recall their own previous reporting on this topic.
The scandal is that Trump is bringing it up - not that it happened.
The MSM press may be dead but how do you get RID of them
:)
Ah, I’m not the spring chicken I was.
Maybe i’ll just get a case of cold ones and watch :)
Where can I donate for another one?
File antitrust suits based on common ownership.
All of these lefty outfits are owned by a few billionaires.
Better title!
Biden just said, "I have released my tax returns every year. You have never released your tax returns!" LIAR
Biden just accused Trump of accepting money from Russia and China. LIAR
Every single statement I've heard from Biden is a total frickin' LIE.
Lyin’ Biden.
To put it simply, Trump is crushing it.
” and I pray it never does”
I pine for it.
It’s time to settle existential differences.

They forgot to say, “alleges WITHOUT EVIDENCE”. Fire the reporter!
Don’t worry Reuters, I predict that the “polling gap” (based on your crappy “polls”) will substantially close and reverse on November 3rd.
