#1 Wallace was very partisan and slanted against Trump. Why did Fox use a rabid NeverTrumper for the "moderator"?

#2 Wallichinski's stock is way down today. Look for him to be increasingly strident and bitter going forward.

#3 Best I've heard it put,

"All three participants played to their base."

#4 #1 - because Shep "Drama Queen" Smith went to CNBC?

#5 #3 Actually Trump still has a strong base. This was a surgical strike upon Biden's left supporters. Most people have made their minds up. This dampens enthusiasm for the Biden base. Trump supporters are going to vote in a massive red wave. Biden lost his temper("shut up"). Trump rolled on.

#6 Oh, Biden was solid third place, no doubt about that.

Whatever he was, he wasn't a fighter last night, and Wallace's performance only amplified that.

He looked hesitant, he squished on the GND, he squished on Antifa, and his monologues came off as recited and void of idea or passion - again Wallace's performance amplifying that.

Prepared zingers were fumbled and/or ill timed. Prepared monologues came out jumbled and confusing.

And the pasty look didn't help at all.

#7 *contacts in my book who normally dog pile on Trump are taking a much more neutral, "Well that was an embarrassing muddle." when normally it would be more like, "That Drumph just can't keep shut for even a minute!"
