Last night was the first presidential candidate debate of the 2020 campaign season.
The immediate takeaways were that:
1. Chris Wallace fought hard but lost the fight by decision to @realDonaldTrump 2. Biden’s favorite son was Beau, not Hunter. 3. Jill Biden hid behind a mask, Melania did not. 4. Democrats grooming is for mail vote election chaos, Trump knows it & will be ready. 5. Biden looks ill, Trump looked tanned, rested, and ready. 6. Biden allowed to interrupt, Wallace chastised Trump. 7. Police support Trump, none support Biden. 8. When Wallace stayed out of it, Trump won by 3 1/2 years over Biden 47 years. 9. Trump had a mask handy, Biden did not. 10. Biden is the Democratic Party, Democratic Party is dying. 11. America apparently had a recession before Covid-19 & no one knew it. 12. There is a difference between unsolicited mailed ballots & solicited absentee ballots. 13. AOC & Pelosi will be upset that Biden does not support Green New Deal. Or does he? 14. Trump is a brawler, Biden is a name-caller. 15. With 4-5 exceptions, Fox is CNN. 16. Trump had facts, Biden had talking points. 17. Biden will pack SCOTUS.
Given the fact that Biden could be even worse in the next debates if the moderator remains neutral, the Dems decided to urge Biden to cancel the next two debates.
MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough called on Joe Biden to “not do any more debates,” tweeting that the first showdown between the current president and the former vice president was “a disgrace.”
“This is a colossal waste of the American people’s time. If they are not going to cut his mic so we can have an exchange of ideas, then Biden should not attend any more debates,” the “Morning Joe” host tweeted to his more than 2.7 million followers.
“Hey Team Biden, if this continues you, pull him off the stage. And do not do any more debates. This is a disgrace,” he added.

CNN’s David Axelrod also floated the idea that Biden should consider not debating Trump for the final two contests in October.
“I think Biden has a decision to make,” Axelrod said, later adding, “I don’t think the country will be yearning for these. You know what will happen if Biden says he doesn’t want to dignify another debate. I don’t think the country wants another one of these spectacles.” Leftist actor George Takei: Link

they played this very well
the plan all along
BINGO! That's exactly what we saw. Biden was on the edge several times. We could clearly see him derailing into dementia on several occasions and Wallace would jump in trying to put him back on the tracks.
It was so obvious.
Been watching debates since Nixon/Kennedy first ever presidential debate. Without a doubt, Chris Wallace was not only the worst debate moderator by a gigantic margin, he was so bad and ineffective that he does not even rate being referred to as the debate moderator.
Agree, he wasn't a moderator, he was a Leftist Activist
Good plan. Take off the gloves, keep swinging, but don’t tip your hand. ;)
