High-resolution images show that Biden was adjusting the crease on his shirt and was wearing a rosary on his wrist. The claim is false.On September 29,2020, out of three debates, the first presidential debate was held at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. Trump campaigns alleged that Democratic Presidential candidate Joe Biden was wearing a wire in that debate, which is baseless. The video was on Social media with different options that Joe was wearing an earpiece and could see him hiding the wire.

In a high-quality video(34:37 minute), a mark on his shirt appears to be a crease, not a wire, which later disappears after a few seconds when Biden moves it. And Washington Reporter Matt Viser responding to Trump's claim that Biden would not agree for ear inspection he tweeted that Biden has not worn an earpiece in the debate.
