Not let Trump walk all over him? Not let Trump hijack Biden's responses? Been more stern with Trump? I know that Trump would have gone into his usual pearl-clutching "you're out to get me / you're biased / woe is me" rant if he actually got shut down, but Wallace would have been praised quite highly if he actually had the balls to do something about Trump's absurd interrupting streak. | ||

This is not behaviour of someone who thinks they can win an election legitimately. | ||

Honestly, he did all three of those things. And while it helped, it wasn't really enough to handle a full-on tantrum. | ||

This is not behaviour of someone who thinks they can win an election legitimately. Does he strike you as the legit guy, having enough integrity to admit defeat? Or more like the guy who'd pay for people to make shit up about a political opponent? I mean.. None of this is surprising. I'm surprised people are surprised or shocked. This isn't a new characteristic of trump. He's always been like that, from day one. | ||

I don't think this was the night where Biden convinced the remaining undecided voters, and Trump should probably walk away happy he didn't exactly lose the debate either. If no one's mind is changed, that's still an acceptable result for Biden and a mediocre one for Trump, given that he's slipping heavily in key swing states like PA, MI, WI and even NC, OH and GA lately. Biden was making a lot of appeals to the Midwest and Rust Belt states that Clinton lost from Obama during that debate, and we'll see if it resonated or was lost in Trump's shouting. | ||

I would say biden came out better though. HE had his ups and downs but he toed a accepted line if unimpressive. I could maybe see someone on the fence going for joe after this. Trump on the other was a mess, all the sound bits are going to be from him and non of them good. Telling armed militia groups they need watch voters is bull. Yes his base wants to hear that but trump does not need to win his base. He needs to win everyone else that is fleeing from him. Also going after bidens son addiction was low even for him. Even some republicans are calling him out on that | ||

Openly telling people to watch the polls and telling the proud boys to stand by. This is not behaviour of someone who thinks they can win an election legitimately. This to me says that Trump's data scientists are telling him he has nothing to lose. He is well on track to lose and anything he can do to make that not happen is a good idea. | ||

I see no reason she should not debate. In all honesty i wish she could debate trump too. | ||

In all honesty i wish she could debate trump too. I honestly don't think there's any debating Trump unless you have an above-average intelligence audience (not intended as a shot at the US) and come armed with a binder of data set to counter the bullshit he spouts (which is where your above average intelligence audience comes in, capable of understanding and appreciating the data). You can't go "This is the truth, and here is the proof" because he'll just say "No no no no all lies didnt happen fake news" and respond with "Crystal clear air, crystal clear water" without any actual substance or reference to any actual plan. | ||
