Trump gifted Biden by interrupting him. I dont think Biden could talk persuasively for more than 30 seconds and was having trouble with recall. If trump had let Biden talk, I imagine there would have been awkward silences and moments.



Trump has been on the bully pulpit for 4 years now so hes very comfortable just yammering on and on.



Biden was not comfortable up there but I imagien this helps him go into the next one more relaxed.



I only saw the first 30 mins or so. I was getting nothing from the "debate".



Did Trump let Biden talk uninterrupted in the second half?

I disagree. I think Trump rattled him by interrupting. Do i see this as a weakness? Not really. I see it as a ploy by Trump to not deal with the issues because he has no plan or valid response. To answer your question. No. It got worse.
