However, the image used \u2063by Biden&#8217;s campaign was criticized for omitting parts of the venue, as verified by \u2062a video from Biden&#8217;s 2022 rally showing empty seats divided by \u2062a black sheet. This controversy surfaces just before an upcoming \u200ddebate between Biden \u200dand \u200bTrump, which features strict rules, including no audience and muted microphones when not speaking. The campaign image and debate details highlight the ongoing rivalry \u2063and scrutiny between both\u200b political figures \u200cand their teams.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"ob-read-more-selector\">\n<p>President<span> <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BidenHQ\/status\/1804982281989202135\">Joe Biden<\/a>\u2018s campaign<span> <\/span>recently shared a side by side photo comparing the audience size to that of former President Donald Trump\u2019s.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">President Biden vs. Donald Trump speaking at the same venue in Philly \ud83d\udc40 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/m33CZ7E0c6\">pic.twitter.com\/m33CZ7E0c6<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Biden-Harris HQ (@BidenHQ) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BidenHQ\/status\/1804982281989202135?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 23, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span><strong>Verdict: Unsubstantiated<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The image leaves out a portion of the stadium.<\/p>\n<p><span><strong>Fact Check:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Biden and Trump will meet for a debate this Thursday on CNN, which will have different rules than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nikki-haley-compares-donald-trump-to-joe-biden-in-2024-attack\/\" title=\"Nikki Haley equates Trump to Biden in 2024 criticism\">previous presidential debates<\/a>,<span> <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2024\/06\/24\/nx-s1-5013579\/trump-biden-presidential-debate-when\">NPR<\/a><span> <\/span>reported.
