I agree. It was the worst, most chaotic political debate I have ever seen. Trump's behavior was nothing short of atrocious, and Chris Wallace totally failed to keep Trump's behavior within bounds so that the debate could be rational and fair. Trump's constant bullying interruptions kept Biden from carrying a consistent train of logic. Trump did not win any new votes, and may have even lost a few who are fired of the chaos. Biden never had the chance for a fair debate, but I do not think he lost any voters.
