Chris Wallace was always going to be a terrible choice as a moderator for any of the three presidential debates, let alone the first one, but good God, did he fulfill that destiny with flying colors.
We knew it back in July when Wallace attempted to fact-check President Trump on the accurate claim that former Vice President Joe Biden was on the record committing to defunding police departments. Biden is, in fact, on record committing to that, and yet, Wallace pretended we hadn't heard it with our own ears.
The Fox News anchor was supposed to show up and moderate a debate, with it having expressly been stated

All sense of impartiality went out the window with Chris Wallace's lack of moderation. Mr Wallace never let President Trump finish answering the questions put to him, nor allowed Donald Trump to respond to the bold faced lies offered by Sleepy Joe. Chris lectured POTUS but allowed Lids Biden to go on with his disrespect to President Trump. For the next debate, no moderator. Let's have a political cage match. Let both of them go at each other. Mano y Mano. Who knows Biden may Corn Pop Donald Trump.

Sorry, I could not watch the debate last night. Could not take any more stress with the election. I was reading that Biden was given the questions. Don't know where the proof is for the allegation. If it pans out to be true, then Chris Wallace needs to be fired. As I said before, I despise that guy.

He is like a block of wood. If his father wasn't MIke, he wouldn't be a "news journalist".

Chris Wallace claims to be a straight news journalist, but he is incapable of putting aside his bias. This makes him unwatchable on his Sunday talk show, and it should have disqualified him from attempting to be a moderator of any political debate, especially a presidential debate. Fox News has become a joke by touting Wallace as a journalist, and by hiring such lying, incompetent contributors as Brazile, Harf, Tarlov and Williams.

I felt kind of bad for him. When my kids would fight when they were growing up, I didnt care who started it or why, I just wanted them to shut up and act like civilized humans. The concept of fairness and impartiality went completely out the window in the din of their screeching and hitting.

I'll probably be castigated here, but I was disappointed in the President last night. I had to turn it off after 30 minutes or so. Pundits said it would be easy to get Sleepy Joe's goat and make him mad, but the President was the one with the scowling face, and, I am sorry, but he was the major interrupter. The dem strategy clearly is to portray Sleepy Joe as the "mild mannered, calm, old man who can restore peace and civility to our nation," and Trump didn't help to deter or bring to light what a lie that is. It's great when Trump takes on the media, but he needs to stop being so overtly combative with Biden and concentrate on his record and what he intends to do in his next term. I understand how difficult it was and will be, given the lies that the dems and Joe are using as the backbone of their campaign, but Trump MUST be presidential, especially during these debates.
OTOH, I completely agree that Chris Wallace is a loser. He has literally hated PDT ever since Trump rightly stated that the press is the "enemy of the American people." One only need watch his Sunday show a few times to compare the softballs he tosses to dems/libs versus the back-stabbing, self-serving stuff he serves up to repubs and members of the Administration.

Wallace is a leftist, just like his father was. He hates Trump, and cannot be fair.
I won't watch Wallace, ever, including in the debate.

Chris Wallace is a lot like many others on TV and Radio, where they feel they are the important person, they have the most salient questions, they know how to probe for the answers. After all, they are the "talent" right.
Wallace should, by now, since Jake Tapper admitted Trump didn't say "good people on both sides" about the agitators in Charlotte. He was, and they know this, talking about the people protesting the statue issue - people on both sides had their own opinions and feelings.
This is a large part of what's wrong with things today, the people who do know aren't countering the blatant falsehoods.
And, Joe Biden and the Democrats running his campaign KNOW what Trump really said, but wantonly lie.

I foolishly watched about 80 minutes of the disasterous and laughable debate. I thought only two people were going to debate. We got one debater and two clowns, Biden and Wallace, joining in.

The whole thing was sickening with the only candidate participating there was biden.
Trump had to keep talking with this kind of behavior going on.
