In case there was any doubt Red is spreading Russian sourced disinformation that the Republican led Senate Intel Committee rejected for the Russian meddling it is. Good work Comrade Red! Putin sends his thanks!

Trump calling the election fraudulent before the fact.

Not exactly a demonstration of confidence...

One candidate lives in America and speaks to America.

One is shuttled from bunker to bunker, hoping to dodge his creditors.

Trump did not look well. He also sounded mentally deficient and exactly like a serial rapist.

Trump came across as a bully,  a liar,  and a barbarian with no capacity for civil debate.   
His constant interruption was childish and made the whole proceeding doubly unpleasant to watch.   I don't think I will be tuning in to the other debates.   What is the value of this kind of disgusting spectacle,  in terms of learning about candidate's actual plans for the next four years?   Biden,  if he hadn't been interrupted every five seconds might have managed to get more of his ideas across,  and would have probably seemed less shaky at times.   At least Biden actually spoke to the American people some of the time.   

Most disturbing was Trump's "stand down... STAND BY"  to his Proud Boy minions,  rather than just call for peace on the streets.

Wallace should have cut Trump's mike at some point, simply to enforce the debate rules.  Trump has no respect for the rules, and that would be the only way Bidens answers could be heard.   Next moderator should make that measure clear right at the outset:  if you will not show minimal courtesy, then I pull your plug.

Why?   If the rule applies to both parties,  what's the problem?   A debate is only legitimate if basic standards of discourse are enforced.   Trump has free will,  so what's to prevent him respecting his opponent,  following rules, and not getting cut off?   Same rules for Biden.   Sounds like you're saying Trump can't behave like an adult.

To Trump the media is also the enemy. 
Where have you been the last four years?
If Biden wants to get his positions out he needs to get out of his basement and campaign. 
Trying to outshout Trump at a debate is not a strategy he can win.
