What do other people say about last night's debate?

First debate of 2020 is universally described as terrible!

Basically all of the people that watched last night's presidential debate describe it as a very poor event. President Trump did not respect the time limits and continually talked over Biden and the moderator. Biden attacked Trump's character and called him a 'clown' and said: "will you shut up man!" to the president. Both candidates created poor images of themselves. See the articles below for more feedback:

A disturbing confrontation between Biden and Trump

Editorial: An ugly debate, America deserves better!



Last night's debate between Joe Biden and President Donald Trump was from my perspective, disturbing. If you watched the debate, you have probably made up your own mind about the conduct of both candidates. That is what you should do as young adults, look at the evidence and develop your own opinion. The entire debate is posted below, and you can watch the whole thing or highlights of it. 

In my opinion the debate was an ugly one, filled with personal attacks on the candidates' characters, rather than answering questions about specific policies. In addition, it was undisciplined and uncontrolled. This sets a poor example for young people and for all Americans. In other words, from a teacher perspective, the moderator (the person asking the questions) had poor classroom management.  

However, both candidates will have other opportunities to do better in the next debate on October 15 and during the final debate on October 22. Hopefully the candidates will show more respect for each other and for the American people who are watching the debate. 

Question: How did you feel about the conduct of the debate?
