Personally, I will be watching former VP Biden. Although I doubt he'll be asked the same questions I'm interested in, his responses should be entertaining.

After thinking about this for a while, I've changed my mind. Won't be watching either of them.
It's not that I'm not interested, it'll be all over the news tomorrow and spun one way or another depending on who you want to believe.
Already throwing my support to who I believe will take the nation down that path I think we should go and I sincerely doubt these Town Hall Meetings are gonna change my mind.
People in former VP Biden's camp and VP Biden himself have convinced me he's not the man for the job. And, I most surely can't support his second fiddle.

I watched 20 minutes or so of Trump and then a minute or two of Biden.
Trump is an amazing man. He takes that crap for the lady and never flinches and just answers the question and keeps moving. I'd be hard pressed to sit there and take the crap she was putting out.
As for Biden, I only watched a minute or two and was sorely unimpressed. If you just look at the two side by side, Biden has a hard time speaking. Trump just rolls on and is coherent.

One of the Hunter emails says he had to give half the (big) money to his dad. I didn't catch if it was Russia, Ukraine or China money. Joe should not be able to get any kind of security clearance, let alone a presidential clearance.
But all anyone in media wants to talk about is Trump's tax returns.

The President did a good job. I liked some of his answers...not all but his demeanor was steady. I liked his posture while sitting there, it showed a casual but in control nature. As they broke for commercial each time he said thank you to Savannah each time. So her hard hitting questions and responses were not all that terrible to him. The crowd seemed appreciative at the end with applause and some cheering.

I heard something* about any and all monies generated from whatever country or deal by Hunter through Joe's "connections/influence etc" had to be split 50/50 with dad and that included the daughter, brother and possible other family members (discovered through some of those released emails) also. Regular little organized crime family. *Probably on Fox, Newsmaxx or Rush

In real estate it is LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION
There was a nice young black woman (in a mask) and whenever a point would be made about Trump she would give thumbs up and nod She was clearly a Trump supporter. This was Trump's finest performance
The "moderator" on the Trump meeting was argumentative as opposed to Bidens as she was frankly disgusting, wasting 10 minutes harping over POTUS as if masks were THE issue and then Trump had to explain the concept of a mortgage to her. She didnt blink using information that itself was ILLEGAL and incorrect Why did the IRS refuse to complete an audit over more than 4 years? If re-elected he should make sure those are fired as incompetent and biased,
No questions about the Biden emails or regret for the fake russia dossier
I thought Biden was coherent during the first half hour but the questions seemed like softballs

Considering the media platforms, did ANYONE believe the incumbent and candidate would be treated equally?
I sure didn't.

Beachballs, not softballs. Not ONE question to Biden about his son and the new evidence of corruption yet Trump was asked, AGAIN, about white supremacy. This is just like Obama's kid glove handling when he was running, both times. No questions to him about his national terrorist ties.

The bias is on full display for everyone with a functioning brain. Biden is telling everyone that he is going to come after your guns and raise your taxes. Biden will not have to answer questions about questionable relationships with foreign governments established through his son. Biden's campaign raised $383 million in one month which is ok but I have to ask myself who the donors are as I don’t think that suburban housewives are funding that.
Based on this, I have to believe if Biden wins, it was meant to be for reasons I may never understand. I firmly believe that 8 years of Obama propelled Trump to the forefront of the Republican field in 2015-2016. If Biden wins, I think it is entirely possible that the Senate will fall to Democratic control which will ensure at least 8 years of a Democrat controlled government. Will the Republican Party able to produce a leader during that time to win over the public or will the economy be the driving force behind a swing away from Democratic policies?
Trump was an unknown as to what type of leader he would be so his run against Hilliary seemed highly unlikely. Now he has a record and his chances are still in question. A Democrat with his record and results would be a landslide winner. I think he deserves a second term on results alone, I count on a large enough majority that thinks the way I do to pull out a victory.

I completely agree with the bias displayed by the press and specifically, the moderators. What I'd like to see is each candidate get to pick the other candidate's moderator. George Stephanopoulos is obviously a left leaning Democrat who served as an aid to President Clinton, the questions he asked were easy and there were no difficult questions. Specifically, things like Hunter Biden and his un-earned income, Biden selling his influence and pressing/demanding former VP Biden to answer the question about court packing. He let former VP Biden off easy IMHO. On the other hand, the questions asked by Savannah Guthrie were those that were direct challenges to President Trump. She continued to press the President on issues, which is alright. I don't mind what Guthrie asked but Stephanopoulos was a biased joke. Biden obviously won't respond to the Court Packing issue. I don't think he wants to do it but, he also doesn't want to piss off his "Progressive" supporters. Most of them will be voting by mail which means that he will delay giving his opinion as long as possible. That doesn't mean he won't agree with packing the court later. With VP Biden, he changes position just as much as the wind changes direction. It appears like George Soros may have finally gotten someone he can control. I'm also not confident in a Trump victory, all I can do is cast my singular legal vote. Dems in charge of the Oval Office and both houses (buying votes and giving as much away as possible to stay in power) will drive the middle class further down the drain. Raising Corporate Tax is a joke, corporations don't pay taxes, they pass that expense on to consumers. Even most democrats recognize that but continue selling that fertilizer.  So many lies and so many gullible voters out there. The greatest generation would be so disappointed in how things are turning out.  Rams

That's a pretty good idea. If only Stalin and Hitler were still available.  In all seriousness, the D's NEVER get a problem with moderators. And the R's get a problem every time. So it's time to stop letting that happen (however it's accomplished). All candidates ought to get a balanced mix of softball and hardball questions, but never a moderator who's sole objective is doing as much damage as possible to the candidate. Trying to goad them into anger, frustration, mistakes and sourpuss faces. Trump couldn't do it, but someone should have walked out there and punched Savannah Guthrie in the throat. It would have brought the loudest cheers of the night, and rightfully so. Edit: someone counted today: Guthrie interrupted President Trump 61 times. That's horsecrap. He handled her just fine, but he shouldn't have to in a town hall setting (or any other debate with a patently biased moderator).
