Debate Summary: Trump's 47 Months v. Biden's 47 Years

Just as his Fox handlers, is obsessed with being "Fair and balanced" while simultaneously giving just enough extra edge to Joe Biden so as to persuade the Democrats to let Fox News host one of their debates in four years, and - more importantly - to persuade Biden personally to give Fox access to the White House if Biden gets elected.

Wallace likewise did not allow Trump the time to lay out the valid point that Biden simply is not smart, as documented by public records that exposed Biden years ago as finishing towards the bottom of his law school class, after Biden had lied about having excelled academically.

Trump has done more in 47 months than Biden did in 47 years.

Although Trump made the point briefly once, I would have liked Trump to have grabbed onto Biden's leg - figuratively! - and not to have let go all night long, no matter the topic at hand: "By the way, Joe, you still have not answered Chris Wallace's question. You can run, Joe, but you can't hide from the American people: Will you condemn - here and now - any suggestion that the Supreme Court should be packed?" And just keep on it all night.

Trump did a good job getting Biden on the record, unequivocally denying that Hunter got paid $3.5 million by that wife of the mayor of Moscow, and zillions more by Burisma and China.

Biden could not have been more unequivocal: lies, all lies, Biden assured us; Hunter never got a dime from the Chinese or the Russian.

Not One Police Endorsement - But No Silence by the Moderator to Allow That to Seep In. Trump got one "Deer in the Headlights" moment out of Biden when Trump conveyed all the law-enforcement endorsements he has and then challenged Biden to name just one that he has.

It worked out even better when Trump challenged Biden to name even one, and Joe could not name a single one.

Trump briefly extracted from Biden a hint that a Democrat win will close down the nation's economy.

In all, the debate probably was a draw, and it may even have helped Biden a bit.

In sum, Trump was better prepared, had more facts, better arguments, but Biden held on with Wallace enabling him to get off the ropes.
