Yep. His left eye looked dead, multiple times. Scary

Not fit to be in office...that said Trump looked like a spoiled kid with his uncontrollable rantings & interruptions

Very bad night for America.

I don't think either candidate swayed any fence straddlers nor changed anyone's mind.

I call it a draw and a waste of an hour and a half of my life.

At first I did too. but I got to watch my wife laugh for an hour and that's always nice.
 
Donnell proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is a clueless asshole in the first half hour of the debate, then Chris Wallace & Joe got to prove that they were the same for the remainder of the debate. ;)

Upon a second watch, I would say that the rules were not set forth very understandably. What were they? 6 Segments or questions and each got 2 minutes to answer after it was open debate or discussion between them. I see both Biden and Trump saying things during the other persons 2 minutes. For the most part Trump let Biden talk for his two minutes. Wallace did a terrible job and kept scolding Trump for interrupting. Was the interruption during the first two minutes or open debate? It is not possible for Trump to explain in any meaningful way any issue in two minutes. Neither Biden or Wallace have the aptitude to understand what takes place and when Trump tries to elaborate he is cut off by Wallace and told that is the next question. When Trump was asked if he would ask White Supremacists to stand down he shook his head up and down and said sure at least twice. Then he said the problems are coming from the left with ANTIFA and BLM. He was asked to denounce the Proud Boys and Trump said something like stand down and stay ready.
The country tried Russian Collusion, Impeachment, and now it is full fledged media attack against Trump. Laura Ingraham tweeted something like Trump had to debate Biden and Wallace. I am not saying that he did not interrupt, but If you watch from the beginning Trump listened to Biden and responded. What happened to the 9 minutes that was supposed to be for Trump and Biden to open debate? Wallace kept jumping in and Chastising Trump.
 
The only thing of significant import I got out of the "debate" last night, other than a compelling need to shout "The Aristocrats!" at the end, was that Trump is planning to contest mail in ballots and endanger the legitimacy of the pending election.

I look around this morning at various news websites and discussion forums and all I see is extreme polarization. Folks who were pro-Trump only say Trump good, Biden bad. Folks that were anti-Trump saw Trump bad, Biden good.

If you try to challenge anyone on their thoughts these days, there is no civil discourse or intellectual honesty. America is devolving. The decline is happening right before our eyes.
 
I knew this wasn't going to happen, but when Trumps taxes became the topic of discussion I wanted him to say taxation is theft.
 
Why should this debate be anything but an ugly street brawl? That's what cable news and US politics is all about. Let's not pretend there was some bygone day of civility in politics. 160 years ago an entire war spawned from political disagreements.

The people who were offended by all the chaos and mishegoss are either naive to this fact or are simply lying to themselves. They are pining for the days of Republicans who refused to fight back.

Trump's goal was to energize his base and the result was a stunning success. Trump needs the working class vote in order to win and the working class wants blood. They were his audience.

What do you guys have to say about Trump not condemning white supremacy? Trump's response was sure he will do it, but then he said "stand by".

The way I heard it in the debate was he was nodding his head up and down and said sure at least twice. It was when they called out proud boys he said stand by. He said all the harm was coming from the left.

Thank you for a sound assessment. We need more of that around here. I don't like turmoil in debates, but that is the name of the game today. Myself Included...people forget that Politics is "got ya" for several decades now and it's not the stupid pointy headed pundits they are speaking to, it's the public. If indeed it is true that the working class is all about Trump then he wins big.

Wallace asked him to condemn white supremacists and didnt mention the proud boys by name. He simply asked trump to condemn the white supremacists and Trump didnt do that at that moment. He agreed to do it, but didn't at that moment. Wallace told him to do it and trump didnt do it. Instead, Trump brought up proud boys and told them to stand down and stand by. He didn't condemn them or white supremacists. Then he talked about left wing rioting.

Wallace singled out Proud Boys as white supremacist. The group is headed up by a guy named Enrique Tarrio. That is a Spanish origin name. The group deems itself "Western chauvenist."
Why didn't Wallace ask Biden to denounce Antifa as a terrorist organization?

No. Wallace brought up Proud Boys when Trump asked him who he should condemn....

The media is saying that it is a shadow from his shirt or the mic, even though you can see the shadow from the mic moving back and forth, it is much lighter than the wire.

Exactly...the whole train of questioning was based on a bullshit assumption.

The cities are burning, not because of right wing violence but Marxist violence.
