Here’s my take:
Biden did better than I expected he would with all the claims about dementia, but I think Trump stood out as the top dog.
There were complaints that Trump interrupted too much. True, interrupting is not legit for differences in opinion. But interrupting SHOULD BE ALLOWED WHEN THE OPPONENT LIES.
Biden was lying thru his teeth so many times - especially when he said “I never said that” for cases where there are videos on Youtube of him saying those very things.
For example, Biden denied his $1B threat to the Ukraine to cease investigating his son’s very corrupt “employer,” Burisma when Biden was VP. Biden flat out denied saying this — which was a total lie as shown in the vid link below. Biden’s actions in this vid constitute INFLUENCE PEDDLING & CRONYISM for his son Hunter, yet Biden has not been prosecuted for it legally and scant mention in the media:

Trump did well to corner Biden into rejecting some issues that are important to his base, such as forcing Biden to agree halfheartedly to “law & order” and forcing him to say he doesn’t believe in the Bernie socialized medicine plan and the Green Plan. Trump smartly said, “You’ve just lost your base.”
Trump should have told Chrissy Wallace – “don’t interrupt me, you’re the moderator. I didn’t come here to debate two people.” Next time, Trump should say that in the next debate with the next moderator who will try to debate him rather than be a moderator. Chrissy Wallace interrupted Trump 7 times in Trump’s final statement.
Trump had some weak answers on “Climate Change.” He obviously hasn’t studied the issue of anthropogenic global warming from a science standpoint. If he had, he would have had good answers .
Thankfully, Trump didn’t do any “word salad” responses like he does sometimes. His delivery was good.
I’m guessing Biden’s camp will require no interruptions or no further debates — so he can get his multiple lies in. Or they might just cancel future debates immediately and pull the victim card as Dems always do: “Trump interrupted when Biden lied, sob sob waaaaaaaa!”
Trump needs to assert that he has a right to interrupt when Lyin’ Biden tells a lie.

Such as?
That ranks right up there with "Because you'd be in jail".
yes my 24 yr old daughter was critical of Trump’s interrupting & demeanor (although laughing out loud at some of his attacks) mostly because she hopes more millenials will see the light.
But she gets it on the economy and will vote for Trump.
Interestingly! my internet went out with Comcast right before the debate and working again when it was over. We used a hot spot from my phone got my husbands computer and reflected the event with an HDMI cord onto a large TV screen.
Trump needs to insist on a conservative moderator. Equal time. Rush or Levin. I don’t know why Republicans always cave on this issue.
