Trump's performance is likely to excite his supporters, who are drawn to his bulldog approach, while Biden laid to rest questions about his mental sharpness and energy levels.

The two-man presidential debate produced three losers. Donald Trump failed to condemn white supremacy; Joe Biden failed to create any excitement; and moderator Chris Wallace failed so completely that Wolf Blitzer felt compelled to apologize to America for the debacle.

From the first response to the first question, the two battled for air time. They interrupted each other to the point that host Wallace, who had hoped to be"invisible," ended up debating Trump himself in trying to enforce the rules. The first topic was the Supreme Court, and the two spent most of the 15 minutes accusing each other of skewing the truth.

A server wears a face shield and face covering as people sit to watch a broadcast of the first debate between President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden at The Abbey, with socially distanced outdoor seating, on Tuesday in West Hollywood, California.Trump deflected attacks on his coronavirus response by praising his administration's ability to ramp up testing, ensure adequate numbers of ventilators and push out a vaccine in record time.

russmove Biden I guess

Biden!

The American people lost. Truly disheartening.

Trump

What debate? There was no debate.Just a loud mouth shouting insults, a very knowledgeable person correcting the lies upon lies of the loud liar and some guy sat in a chair allowing the loud mouth to shit all over him.Maybe that’s how Americans debate.

I’m not sure anyone won. I think everyone (all of America) lost.

triciamap TRUMP came prepared to debate Chris Wallace and won. Wallace lost the debate. Joe Biden fell into the roll of moderator and had very little impact or sustenance

President Trump won. He had command of the facts. He truly is the peace maker.

hate to say it but i think trump won the debate!

Biden, won. He spoke to America, while being attacked. This was to be a debate about serving America needs. Not, an after school fight! Chris Christy stated; 'it was part of the debate plan, just not that hot.' Yet, Sleepy Joe was awake and swing back. Trump was red & seeing!

Here's a novel idea. Each person has 3 minutes to answer a question, then their mike is shut off and the other guy gets his 3 minutes, uninterrupted. Back & forth, controlled, dignified, respectful, stick 2 topic, no personal stuff. Bounty Boy looked like an unhinged mobster.

Neither of them. They argued and sneered at each other. At least the President never needed notes at all. Joe kept looking down preparing his answer when the President spoke.

Trump acted like a petulant child having a temper tantrum - figured Trump would try to blame someone else for his National embarrassment. Target is Chris Wallace. As always, Trump takes responsibility for nothing, even his own failure.

Most ridiculous analysis. Saying Biden is guilty of shouting in response to a yelling, sweating, lying, unhinged pig is suggesting there’s an equivalency in behavior. Chump raised the aggression x1000 to 1. Fuck this article. Trump is an insane monster.

The guy who was as civil as a sane person can be in this situation.

realDonaldTrump WON!

The Best!! 💣💥😎😷

No one. Trump looked immature. Biden was foolish to join trump in the name calling. Chris Wallace had an impossible job.

What did people expect Chris Wallace to do? Normal people abide by common decency norms and not interrupt.

It’s ok. The bbc is telling us the bbc can tell us

Trump

Russia won

I don't know...I was excited by Biden's performance.

Ironically, Trump is not interested in respectability, unlike religious supporters.

Trump bought shame and disgrace on America in ways no President has ever done before No one won, but America lost

realDonaldTrump was a joke. A child. I can see through what he is doing. The attempt to distraction by bringing up JoeBiden's son instead of addressing the subject at hand. He is running scared. Biden needs to keep centered if he is to debate Trump again. Stay centered.

Not sure. Wallace really put up a good fight though. Not sure it was enough to get him elected.

JoeBidenWonTheDebate

I don't even know why you're treating this as a question. That was a debacle, not a 'debate'. Donald Trump doesn't even deserve a participation Trophy for that disgusting, unAmerican display of Racism and nonstop LIES.

Biden won, America lost. Our president is an embarrassment

No winning.

Chris Wallace with his 76 interruptions of Trump..way to help poor Joe.

Bye Don! Biden Harris 2020
