Unlike previous debates, there will be no studio audience 

It's time to get the gloves on and be ready for low blows. Lets Get Ready To Rumble Thursday, June 27 when Donald Trump and U.S. President Joe Biden take the debate stage together for the first time in four years. What's at stake for Biden and Trump in their first 2024 presidential debate? Storylines and campaign themes should provide plenty of controversy leading up to a tight presidential rematch in November. Betting is expected to be brisk throughout the debates and ahead of the Nov. 5 election, and leading online sportsbooks are ramping up their betting menu and prop bets throughout the presidential election race. 

There are plenty of benefits to wagering offshore, and watching and wagering on the presidential election and debates is one of them. 

Currently, the winning party odds to win the Nov. 5 presidential election favor the Republicans (-140) over the Democrats (+110) with all other parties +3000, according to odds at BetOnline and Sportsbetting.ag. 

Trump is currently the -160 favorite to win the 2024 presidential election with Biden +155 odds as the underdog.

Recall less than a month ago that Trump's odds to win the 2024 Presidential election took a hit with BetOnline dropping the convicted felon's odds from -165 to -120 before rebounding back to -140 with money supporting his odds back to -160. Trump said his convictions and all the chaos "Is part of the game."  

It's Game On starting Thursday through Nov. 5. 

You might want to refresh yourself from the 2020 Trump-Biden debate as the bitter attacks from each side were part of the combative prime-time event.

Following the Fourth of July, Trump will appear for sentencing in his criminal trial on July 11. That's just days before the Republican National Convention, which begins on July 15 in Milwaukee. Will Trump and all his turmoil still be the favorite to win then? A month later, the Democratic National Convention will kick off on Aug. 19 in Chicago. 

The controversial Trump-Biden battle and bashing has just begun.
