If working means keeping Trump restrained and giving Biden enough rope to hang himself and the Democrats for the next few years, yes.

If it means meeting the MSM's and Uniparty's bread and circuses expectations for the voters to shut up and do as they are told, it was a disaster.

Certainly better than having Chris Wallace debate on behalf of Biden.

Riiiiight. So this author goes to the interwebs and grabs posts from far leftists that were unhappy with the results of the debate.

The format had nothing to do with it.

Dr. Jill and other Biden handlers are guilty of senior abuse.

Trump's warts and weaknesses aside...Biden is not fit to make jello.

To keep him there only proves once again...the shadow government exists, that it stays in the shadows for a reason, that reason is that those who lurk in the shadows...are usually up to no-good.

If sunlight is the best disinfectant, these people represent a bacteria much more dangerous to the masses than a viral pandemic.

These left-wing hacks calling what President Trump says “lies” were saying the accusation that Biden is senile was a lie.

So there you go.

the audience clapping can help cover up Biden long freeze ups. I noticed it at the rally he held.

The left obsessively accuses Trump of lying but never say what the lies are. They think Trump’s world view is a lie. An alternate universe thing.

Yes, this worked suprisingly well. Moderators more-or-less behaved themselves, both candidates took turns, didn’t run over. In all that, one of the best debates I’ve watched. Plus, it gave Biden plenty of time to come apart and destroy his campaign.

The debate format was tailored to give Biden an advantage. Muted mics meant he could concentrate without being interrupted by Trump. No audience meant less distractions from applause and audience outbursts. Also, the original rules specified they’d be seated, but that was changed.

Yes, it showed how bad the media’s boy really was!
It showed how much in the bag the media has been for Biden.
What was the final nail was that his enabler wife had to lead him where to go, at the end.

…” Trump of lying but never say what the lies are”

…Jon Stewart said Trump was lying without one example

Leftists whining because their propaganda arm - the corporate media - didn’t interfere enough for their liking.

It worked for trump, it kept him focused because there wasn’t a crowd to play too like at the rallies

Biden’s apparent willingness to show up at the debate despite
his infirmities can be ascribed to his virulent megalomania.

Biden’s obsession for great or grandiose performance is
exhibited by outbursts of wildly extravagant meanderings.

Megalomania is a delusional mental illness that is marked by feelings
of personal omnipotence and grandeur, that one can do no wrong.

He actually thought he won the debate.

The only real information in this article is that Robert E. Kelly, professor of political science is a moron.

Letting them talk, not having an audience of cheering sycophants, and not making it about Chris Wallace? Yes. It worked.

Another viewer suggested the debate format should feature a "buzzer" that would go off every time the candidates said a false statement.

Put Jesse Watters in charge of the buzzer and I'm on board... put some brain-dead liberal who only knows one side in charge and we're 'otta' there...
