Let's hope that the polls in the next few days prove me to have entirely misjudged the effect of the debate.

They have. Note that the usual suspects on the left aren't crowing about "Glorious Soviet Biden victory" but they are all screeching like Harpies about Trump's "tone" and wanting to cancel the remaining debates.

The normies are all either aghast at Wallace or making fun of him.

Vox Day said it best:

When the media attempts to minimize the event rather than attack the more right-wing individual, that tells you everything you need to know about what happened.

Reality is that you are a dishonest gloom monger on the debate.

Look at the leftist press this morning. They're not crowing victory, they're trying to bury it.

You are correct. Last night, at first I was worried because Wallace was protecting Biden (you might recall your post to me). But, the more it went on, I understood the Trump strategy (even with Wallace craping on Trump) and I think he got Biden to deflate some of his base, not answer key questions and made Biden out to be a nasty (e.g. calling Trump a clown and a racist).

If you can't objectively judge a debate where Trump stated no case or facts about his accomplishments and came across rude and frustrated, then you're no better than the left who claim victory at every defeat.

I feel bad for all the “journalists” and “analysts” who had pre-written “Biden Dominates” articles but then had to revise because...

I'm watching the reaction of the left cheerleaders.

They are not broadcasting a Biden victory.

Why?

You've been caught trying to black pill.

And now your refuge of "concern" is being shown as a mere facade, too.

Here, try the New York Times, Tex, since you love the left so much.

Yeah, I know, "New York City? Get a rope" like the old commercial.

But nobody on earth can call the New York Times a "Trump outfit".

What a load of crap.

You are hung up on appearances rather then reality of war. You must kill or be killed.

I don’t think anyone “won”, but I guess I’d give the win on a referee assist to Biden simply because the bar was set so low for him (showing up and remaining on his feet constituted a “win” for him).

Chris had a tough night. Two on one was not surprising, but fun. Many important points made, like throwing Bernie, AOC PLUS 3, and the rest, to the wolves! Radical Left is dumping Sleepy Joe.

Dog bites man is not news equally the President's spokesperson finding the president won and the other guy lost is not news nor probative of any result.

We will see in a few days if Trump gets a spike in the polls, I hope he does. Meanwhile let's refrain from citing the analysis of Rachel Maddow or Lawrence O'Donnell to spare our digestion or Kayleigh McEnany to bolster our hopes.

I agree. He knew he would be under attack from both of the other participants and came out too aggressive.

The most frustrating part was that he was interrupting with points that weren’t that good and missing opportunities to really land some hard blows.

The constant interruptions put Wallace into a mode where he got used to automatically cutting Trump off. So when Trump started to answer a question or make a point, Wallace would cut him off and steer him in another direction.

There was one occasion where Wallace asked a question, Trump starts to answer it and Wallace kept interrupting him because he wasn’t answering in a way Wallace wanted. But when he asked Biden about packing the court, all Biden had to say was “I don’t want to answer that” and it was good enough for Wallace.

Not what I'm doing at all.

I haven't heard hide nor hair out of any Biden spokesperson crowing about the debate.

That means the Biden team is burying it: not what you do when you've won.

And even the New York Slimes is now "fact-checking" BIDEN on the debate.

Nice try though.
