I'd compare that debate to a rough & tumble football game. And with the coaches acting as referees, constantly throwing penalty flags, (verbally.) Our family was constantly yelling about Biden's throwing out so many lies.

Started quite early when Joe falsely said the Trump had not been pressuring China to have our Covid medical teams go into China and get more medical facts. And went on & on all evening that way.

We felt that it's very important to correct those falsehoods quickly, not let them linger on the table. Seems that the Prez was feeling the same, constantly having to correct Joe's false statements.

And Joe had plenty of come back comments also. Some very low brow --like shut up -- clown, etc.

So YES, was rather messy, but it needed to be done.

Here's an interesting quote that Trump said to Chris Wallace: "I Guess I'm Debating You, Not Him ... I'm Not Surprised" Seems Wallace was injecting his own views & interrupting, so Trump pointed this out. Today reports mentioned that Trump was often faced with debating & correcting both Biden and Wallace.

We saw about four or more times that Biden lost his words delivery, was pausing & fumbling. But the commentators did not pick on Joe for that. He got a pass.

Plenty more went on in that debate, just like in a very scrappy, rough & tumble football game. Too much for a single message here

Bottom line -- I'd suspect that folks on both political sides were happy for their own candidate. Didn't move the needle either way.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where:
Trump mad a huge mistake speaking over Biden when Biden was answering a question. If he had just stood there without making faces and kept his mouth shut I'm betting Biden would have screwed up if he had to speak for two minutes UNINTRUPTED! By talking over him Trump gave him a moment to gather his thoughts before going on.....BIG MISTAKE.

I also think it was a mistake to bring up the Hunter Biden issue, a presidential debate is neither the time or place. Everybody is aware of Hunter's shenanigans and the fact that's he's hiding until after the election. He also was let go by the Navy as unsuitable for service due to his drug addiction and positive test result, he did not get a Dishonorable Discharge as alleged by the president.
