I don’t care if Trump started dancing in his underwear, I will still support him. Biden is an idiot.

Good grief you really thought this was going to be a debate......lol. It was set up to be a vitriolic and slanderous beat down of Trump. Trump fought back and didn’t back down. This is why we elected Trump.

The only winners tonight were Viagara, Eugenix, and Vitamin B-12 therapy.

I was really struck by Biden using various tones of voice
to solicit emotional responses instead of presenting
clear answers.

Biden did not need to interrupt Trump. Wallace took care of stopping Trump whenever he was about to make a strong point.

Trump won.
People saw Wallace running interference for Biden and Trump was right on every issue, that’s why Wallace could not help himself from doing it.

Biden is a skilled politician aka a charlatan. The bar was set low. He didn’t fade but I didn’t expect him to do so. He said that he and Obama were unifiers in so many words. They were not.

Kennedy just called both candidates “baboons” on Fox Business. Well, now.

I tuned out early on, but the most enduring impression I got from this fiasco was that Joe Biden looked absolutely awful on that stage.

I've seen more healthy-looking people lying in caskets in funeral homes.

Two against one.

Trump and his campaign agreed to the format and the moderator. Every four years I read conservative commentators saying the GOP has to stop letting mainstream media liberals run these debates. And then the GOP goes ahead and does it again. GOP truly is a stupid organization

If Trump had not interrupted Biden and Wallace he would not have been able to say anything. Biden spewed lies continuously, and Wallace just helped him along.

Considering it was Trump vs. two opponents I think Trump did the best he could.

Wallace was clearly not a moderator, but a combatant. He should be ashamed of himself.

It's a great tactic, to increase support among the suburban moms.

I agree. On the main thread early on I predicted that Biden would walk off the stage. To his credit he didn’t. He hung in there. And with Wallace‘s help, he won the debate.

One of those debates that Biden will get credit for today because he survived, but after analysis Trump will have won on points by November 3.

Nothing will change my vote but there are so many idiots out there who will fall for the media/democrats lies that it scares me.

I can see why Trump has to be aggressive and interrupt if he has both Biden, who is calling Trump a clown and racist, and Wallace interrupting him.

Trump attacked Biden on everything. All Biden could say was "that's not true" knowing the media will back him up. But who watches or reads the media? Nobody.

In contrast Biden's attacks were poorly executed, the usual bulging vein drivel that even the media doesn't believe, the Atlantic attack, etc. Biden didn't pull those off well and gave up and didn't follow through. Couldn't name a name except Kelly Anne Conway.

Biden called Trump a clown and told him to shut up. If Trump didn’t respond strongly, it would have looked weak.

Bingo!

The format wasn't very well designed for a debate. Wallace often loaded his questions to Trump with dubious assertions that demanded corrections and Biden didn't respond to many of Wallace's questions.

Our nation should be thankful it has an educated, sophisticated street-fighter as a president.

Chris was not a moderator. He was a debater. Trump did not agree to that. By the way, was Biden reading from prepared notes?
