In the Debate, all Trump did was excerpt his stump speeches.

[Buttoneer]

I think Joe should do the same thing at the next one. The debate moderators don't give a shit.

1. I don't think he answered a single question. He just riffed

His stump speech

[emulatorloo]

2. FWIW, Focus groups I saw really didn't like that Trump refused to answer questions.

[Buttoneer]

4. Hard to debate a firehouse of lies.

[FarPoint]

3. Yes he did just that...

Moderators let him rant....no revisiting confrontation ...Biden did actually debate responses...factual too.

[Zambero]

5. I got the same impression

His debate prep was the rallies. The factual non-content of Trump's MAGA snake oil pitch transferred to the debate stage. He provided no substantive answers to the moderator's questions, and was completely off-topic most of the time. This lack of focus and evasiveness, along with rapid-fire lying, was not lost on millions of viewers.

7. I agree with you Buttoneer, Watching the "debate" was like Trump giving his MAGA speeches.

8. The debate didn't help Trump.

And despite the handwringing I think it will ultimately help Biden. Trump was a chump. Biden had a cold and is old. Nothing we didn't already know. The 'moderators' (Trump enablers) did a terrible job. They should have stayed with the question until Trump answered it.

9. No more free prime time rallies (debates) for TSF. On any network or cable shows. Shame on CNN

10. It was the same old shit he sprouts at his rallies and on his right wing talk shows.

Nothing new the same old crap talking points.

Boring!

11. It wasn't a debate, it was a political rally.

Question weren't answered and answers were not fact checked. Result, "RALLY".
