Please tell us you saw that debate. Now please tell us you're here to see a little more about it. |
Today we have a sort of recap that we know was probably better to send to your inbox in the morning but we're tired so here we are. |
Let's start on the "takeaways," also known as the stuff you for sure heard about today in a Zoom meeting or saw trending on social media. |
But it's not too late to catch up on what happened. This isn't going away. |
|
A 'hot mess' |
So what, do you think, was the reaction to all of that back and forth? If you guess confusion and almost a sort of anger, you are correct. |
Almost immediately after it was finished, the internets lit up with people just bewildered by how much bickering President Donald Trump and challenger Joe Biden took part in. There was also some talk about moderator Chris Wallace being overrun. |
"That was a hot mess inside a dumpster fire, inside a train wreck," CNN host Jake Tapper said after the debate ended. "That was the worst debate I have ever seen. In fact, it wasn't even a debate. It was a disgrace and it's primarily because of President Trump." |
|
What happens now? |
On Wednesday, the organization that oversees the presidential debates says it will be adding "additional tools" to prevent a repeat of Tuesday night's raucous confrontation between Trump and Biden. |
"Last night's debate made clear that additional structure should be added to the format of the remaining debates to ensure a more orderly discussion of the issues," the Commission on Presidential Debates announced. |
The commission said it was "carefully considering" changes and would announce them shortly. |
What else is happening? |
