They are absolutely right, and there's simply no other way to say it. #debates

"Trump’s baffling debate strategy was to tweet out loud for 90 minutes"
Brief excerpt:
"...[Trump's] approach was the approach he takes on Twitter: lifting up various unfounded allegations, shouting at everyone for hours on end, celebrating obscure memes and jokes. Biden found himself debating @realdonaldtrump and not the president of the United States.
It was an odd gambit for Trump. Sure, it meant that he flooded out Biden’s own attacks or Biden’s presentation of his policy ideas. (Trump, famously, has offered little in the way of a second-term agenda.) The Atlantic’s Derek Thompson noted that it was the human equivalent of a distributed denial-of-service attack, a hostile effort in which a website is flooded with so much garbage traffic that good requests can’t get through. Few rational debate topics survived Trump’s tsunami."

Chris Wallace is embarrassing, and trying to pretend that the problem isn’t 100% Trump.
