“Trump kicks Bidens ass!”

Without Wallace, Biden would have been roadkill.

Chris horrible.

Biden rehearsed with all the questions and iPOD answers via podium.

Trump knocking Biden off his feet.

I hate Chris Wallace for the POS he is.

I think that he did a horrible job and came across as a jerk.

Why?

Biden (1) collapsed at the very beginning in his refusal to answer questions, (2) obfuscated and rambled the rest of the way through, (3) Trump was clearly debating two people, both of whom were distorting and lying.

Is your position that because Trump spoke forcefully and interrupted his opponents that he harmed himself? Do you have any evidence that regular people even worry about that sort of thing? These same criticisms were leveled at Trump during the Hillary debates. Trump won Blue States that same election year.

Both were horrible. But Trump has the truth on his side, so he won by default.

On to the next episode.

The last one was the "tell".

He got them in advance.

There’s no way Trump is going to get a fair debate with any of the main stream media pundits.

Some of observations after watching the debate-

Chris Wallace asked questions challenging Trump's record and his statements. I did not hear him ask anything challenging Biden's record or his statements.

Chris Wallace was running interference for Biden. He regularly interrupted Trump and challenged what he said. He never did that for Biden.

Chris Wallace will not let President Trump challenge Biden, but he has no problem Biden doing the same to Pres. Trump.

My only criticism of Trump is he didn’t bring up immigration and open borders.

That may be so...

...but he only has to perform once or twice, when people are watching.

And, like all POS, he’s a good liar.

Trumps new best friend needs to become Candace Owens. He needs her to mentor him to teach and win over those so ignorant they are not already voting for him. If she was a third debater tonight she would win a write in campaign in a landslide.

I'm muting FOX because I know they're going to gush all over Biden.

Switch to Newsmax or OAN.

I agree with you. Trump came across as too aggressive for most people. It was funny at first but became nearly unwatchable. However, Trump still has my vote.

Wallace was a hostile “moderator”. Doubtful that was agreed upon. “Bottom Line”

Are they having Jerry Springer moderate the next debate?

I am a clown? Okay, I’m the clown.

Sorry, but this thing was a fustercluck... neither one of them looked good, and blaming Wallace for being biased is silly.

This was a “debate” that the only people that probably were turned in more than 10 minutes were folks who already had made up their minds... I don’t think one undecided person, even kept this thing on longer than that.

If you think this was something otherwise, you are welcome to your opinion, but I sure don’t see it.
