Will be interesting to see if Trump tries a different technique next time round. Trump's tax revelations may have lulled some into a sense of security - he's shrewd and has bags of energy.

Yes, of course.

But are the US audience so dumb as to think "ah, Biden didn't screw up - so I'll vote for him". They've prolly made up their minds in advance and were watching to see if there would be any fun & games.

Did the interruptions play out well for you, or the US audience who think differently?

In your opinion, will these debates affect the outcome? There was so little policy discussion.
