Of all the networks talking heads, this is the worst post debate commentary.

[@texastater8333]

I have never seen a debate where one candidate not only came out on top, but beat him so bad that the other candidates own party calls for his replacement!

[@EricS-tf3hg]

Next debate MUST allow live fact-checking! It's the only way

[@ivetteacostasoberanes8424]

And if there are no favoritism on muting and unmuting the candidates. They unmuted Trump and muted Biden over and over again!

[@SUGAR_XYLER]

Exactly 💯 Trump and all his lies 🤥

Facts!

[@thaphreak]

CNN let Trump talk and talk and talk and cut off Biden far more than Trump. Even unmuted Trumps mic while Biden was talking so he could interrupt

[@andrewwillson5298]

CNN is pro Biden so what does that tell you? Joe couldn't even finish a sentence without making himself look like a fool. CNN did Joe a favor by cutting his rambling off

[@bretthaines2676]

Trump didn't need to interrupt... and every interruption by the moderator was in Bidens' favor. Biden's debate was the single worst performance in American presidential debate history.

[@tracyvaught8399]

CNN ALL THEY EVER DO IS TALK UP BIDEN AND PUT TRUMP DOWN GIVE ME A BREAK IF YOU THINKL THEIR TRUMP FANS STAY OFF THE KOOLADE

[@hveragerthi9642]

Except, it appeared that they were not being fair on timing, so I started timing response times. And sure enough, there was major discrepancies in the allowed time. CNN did have a large time delay in the broadcast, which gave them time to censor out things they did not want heard. That would explain the time discrepancies.

[@RiversRider]

Kjp and VP Harris should be held accountable for lying to the American people about joes health

[@kenmosburg2445]

So you should be held accountable for supporting a convicted felon, too? A rapist, liar, a tax fraudster, a business fraudster, and someone who lies and deceives his worshippers, and as a smartest, wealthy billionaire, didn't replace obamacare, didn't get Mexico to build the wall, and added no less than 24 Trillions to our national debts.

[@ivetteacostasoberanes8424]

My perception is that the whole country is now more confused about the real purpose of debates. They are certainly not targeting to show who can appear to be stronger by stating a bunch of lies. Historically debates show which candidate is more versed and experienced for crucial matters for the country. It wasn’t a good night for President Biden nor for Trump …. As a matter of fact it was an awful experience for the country who has been misleaded on what the substance of a debate should be. Those who claim that Trump won, have a very low bar for the greatest country that was founded on the truth and not lies. Truth and decency have been the founders of this wonderful nation.

[@sleepinglady2778]

Where was Melania?

[@ivetteacostasoberanes8424]

Hiding as an ostrich! If anyone knows that Trump is a lier…it’s Melania

[@kenmosburg2445]

If you married/created a transaction with someone who promised you wealth and a lavish life, then treated you like a bimbo, after you created and raised a strong, handsome, impressive young man, would you hang around when he obviously is willing to risk your marriage for cheap shots? As he said to his visiting author, "How long do you think I'll be on the market if she leaves me?"

[@JonathanSterlingUSA]

These recent videos are so extremely lopsided in Trump's favor, it's almost like somebody is messing with my browser.

[@bretthaines2676]

If youvsaw the debate performance last night, you'd understand exactly why.

[@JonathanSterlingUSA]

@@bretthaines2676 I meant the video's ratings. They anti-T ones are all downvoted. The one with Lara T currently has 125-0 Likes!!!

[@texastater8333]

Beyond any doubt now!

[@ErikaWelindt-cs6uz]

That’s not his Voice, plus demented people don’t live that long or are capable of holding long speeches. All a big lie. Jill needs to get of the stage, nobody voted for her.

[@ShaunBest]

Jill and Joe 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 oh what pair of 2nd childhood wrinkled old babies. "Trump said a lie he said it. Yeah. Wyier wyier."

[@bennguyen9847]

I guess Jill is running the show. It’s so embarrassed…!

[@Infinitebrandon]

I'm for another YOUNGER nominee. I heard it'd divide our party but katie Porter would be my dream come true. What's wrong with Hakeem? I'm sure dems would rally around both and others: summer Lee, ms Crockett and more. We'd all rally. Never trump and never Hillary, watch that $#!÷; it's important

Yep, and those who voted for him will be drafted to fight in the USA "Special Military Operation" to De-Socialize Canada and Mexico.

[@kenmosburg2445]

Keen insights and comment! It has been the theme of "Stinky's entire life", thus, a billionaire has to do TAX FRAUDS TO GET AHEAD? Another big lie, by the master of Big Lies, and Rigging the systems for his personal benefits, and as a mulit billionaire? Must be pure bovine waste piles! (cow patties)

Wish John F Kennedy was alive 🥹. Biden age will always be an issue although he’s making things happen.

Common, Joe brings up the murder victim of an undocumented immigrant during the topic of abortion….a HOME-RUN topic for the democrats, and Biden blew it. This is an unmitigated disaster for the DNC and we need to replace Biden ASAP. Why didn’t we primary Joe for the BEST democratic candidate back during the winter/spring? Watching this debate was absolutely painful.
