He’s casting doubt on the voting in Philly and other large cities where he’s going to get crushed.

ABC calling it a disaster. Said both looked terrible.

Wolf Blitzer said that might be the last debate of this election cycle. It would not surprise him

The befuddled faces on BBC World News post-debate are priceless. And they're used to unhinged politicians shouting at each other.

THESE DESCRIPTIONS ARE FUCKING BULLSHIT STOP HELPING TRUMP. IT WAS A SHITSHOW BECAUSE OF WHO THE PRESIDENT IS AND HOW HE ACTS.

Oh God. What the fuck is the mainstream media’s obsession with propping up Trump with this “both sides” bullshit?

Seems like they are more interested in ratings than serving as a bulwark for the American experiment. Water is wet I guess?

Spin is already starting and our both sides lol media is all about it. I think Biden sucks and thought he was totally fine.

Less all capsy screed... yes this was a debate unlike any we've seen and lacked decorum fit the office.. but it is because President Trump has degraded the office. Joe Biden took the bait and called him a clown and told him to stop yapping... but he also had answers and debated well. Just calling it a shit show or a hot mess is a disservice to the why.

Kumail Nanjiani @kumailn
Here’s the big takeaway from the debate:

Trump was asked to condemn white supremacists, and not only did he refuse to do so, he told them to “stand back and stand by.”

You know, as if he is their leader.

That’s the takeaway.

Absolutely. Biden came out and tried to be decent, he greeted Trump and tried to respect the rules, but when when it became clear that Trump wasn’t going to follow them, Biden took a few swings and tried to fire back, but when Wallace told him to stop Biden did. It was 100% a shit show and it was because of Trump.

Other mainstream media is certainly going to hate Chris Wallace and FoxNews going in (and with good reason) so they're certainly going to get in those digs first, since I'm sure they loved seeing him flail. a more balanced perspective will probably emerge in the next day or so.
