Heckling and interrupting Biden, Trump caused chaos in the first presidential debate
President Trump, who has been trailing former vice president Joe Biden in national polls for months, sought to rescue his flagging reelection campaign with a chaotic, insult-laden clash in the first presidential debate in Cleveland Tuesday night.
Trump steamrolled Fox News moderator Chris Wallace to heckle Biden, interrupting him to make fun of his college grades, his son’s business dealings, and his performance against Senator Bernie Sanders. He attempted to dodge Biden’s criticisms over his handling of COVID-19, which has taken more than 200,000 American lives, the economy, and his handling of race relations.
The result was an often incoherent shouting match, with Biden flashing his anger at the near-constant interruptions and the two trading insults more often than policy proposals.
