1st Presidential Debate Megathread

[HisGrace]

The riot segment was where Biden could have gotten killed but I think it was his strongest segment, both due to pointing out the crime increase is under Trump's watch and that he's been riling up. Trump tap dancing around the white supremacy question once again also undoes whatever little good will he built up with his relatively stable behavior at the beginning.

[Ferguson97]

How hard is it to condemn white supremacists? That's not a hard question.

He doesn't want to alienate the base

[roxas11]

Bottom line

I think Biden won this simply because He had no major screw up and he defiantly did not come off as senile


overall I think this was a terribly moderated debate and both trump and Chris Wallace do not help themselves at all by their awful performers

I don't care how biased or unbiased you are, Trump's answer on white supremacists was a disaster.

And yet Biden is the one "losing"

[Storr]

I don't care how biased or unbiased you are, Trump's answer on white supremacists was a disaster.

"Most of the violence is from the left."
Brilliant Donald, just brilliant.

[Blue3]

Is Trump blaming Biden for McConnell blocking Obama's judges?

[Buzz]

This has been so embarrassing.  A sad night for America.  What the hell am I watching.

I really liked Chris Wallace moderating the 2016 debate.

Too bad this will probably be the last debate he ever moderates

[soundchaser]

Trump didn't condemn white supremacists...

Wtf

That’s going to be the story of the night, and it’s not a good one for Trump.

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

more Angry Biden pls

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

Biden's attempt to talk about his more honorable son was lame.

[Kuumo]

I wonder why Obama left so many judges for Trump to appoint?    It's not like Republican obstruction had anything to do with it. Not to mention all the empty low-level cabinet posts under the Trump administration.

[emailking]

I loved it when he called Trump Putin's puppy.

Or has a job. You don't disagree with the Great Dictator and still have employment the next day as part of Fox News staff.

[Use Your Illusion]

I really wish Biden would bust out Big Lebowski "Donnie you're out of your element"

[Stockdale for Veep]

much like the 1st debate in 16, Trump came out strong, then drowned.

[Starry Eyed Jagaloon]

"I don't know about Beau."

Wow, just wow.

I'm not sure about this, but Wallace was much better in 2016 then he has been tonight. Trump and Biden constantly interrupting each other has made it a difficult task for him, and his pleas for them to keep within time constraints and to avoid interruptions are falling on deaf ears.

[Dr. Arch]

Does this look like dementia to you? Incompetency? Senility? No. Sit down. Biden is here to stay.

[Crumpets]

What are your thoughts on the wildfires?

"People are very happy."

[Ferguson97]

"Are you talking about Hunter?"

"I am talking about by son Beau."

"... I don't know Beau."

I guess even Trump isn't dumb enough to touch that topic lmao

[Interlocutor is just not there yet]

much like the 1st debate in 16, Trump came out strong, then drowned.

And much like the 1st debate in 16, Democrats were apoplectic for the first 10 minutes and then became strangely quiet after he started drowning

[musicblind]

How did Trump blow a simple request to condemn white supremacists?

[Storr]

much like the 1st debate in 16, Trump came out strong, then drowned.

It's almost like the more you let him talk, the more likely it is he'll say something idiotic.

[WD]

WTF is Trump talking about
