In pennsylvania. At 7 00 eastern time he will be making remarks the annual housemate dinner, hosted virtually by the archdiocese of new york. President trump will also be making remarks at that dinner. Tomorrow we will be live on cspan at 9 00 p. M. Eastern time for a rally in duluth, minnesota in northern minnesota. Anothery, hes got rally at 7 00 p. M. In sanford, florida. Thats whats coming up on the campaign trail later this week. While we wait for the phones, which check in with cspan. At okies posed this question 30 minutes in. Here in the hall its evident the president is speaking mostly to the guys across the stage, while joe biden is try to keep focus on speaking through the cameras to you at home. How is it working for you watching at home . Tweets, an observation from inside the debate, everyone on biden side of the hall is wearing a mask, more than half on trumps side, including his children are not wearing a mask. These are requirements that all guests wear masks. Ahead of the debate the hill reported this. The Trump Campaign went on an ad list ahead of the debate and brought out the top ad on youtubes homepage, as many people are likely to watch the candidates go headtohead on that video streaming platform for tonights debate. Let me quickly, before we get to calls, run through political fact, what they put out in their tweets. As the two were debating they were Fact Checking the two candidates. Donald trump said he has done more than any president for africanamericans. Historians disagree is what poli politico found. Finally crimes have continued to drop under President Trump, but murders are recently up. Half true, they say. Donald trump says drug prices are coming down because of his efforts, the evidence does not show it. Mostly false. In september, the Trump Administration had a detailed plan of how they would distribute vaccines. The federal government aims to make the two dose vaccine free of cost. States will submit their plans in october. One issue that cap coming up was that senateeport Committee Report that that a russian widow sent 3. 5 million to partnership cofounded by hunter biden. S lawyer said he hadin it. Democrats reviewed the republicans documentation and did not find a specific link to hunter biden. So this claim by the president according to politifact is unproven. Start with jerry in stratford, connecticut on our support President Trump line. What did you hear that impressed you or did not . Caller good question. Didink Vice President biden very, very well. I think President Trump was right to point out what have you done in the last century to get these problems solved. I thought it was absurd the notion that Hillary Clinton was elected and we stayed in the paris climate accords there would be less fires in california and less hurricanes in the gulf coast. I think that is ignorant and unscientific to make that claim. This years weather would be different if someone else was in the white house is superstition. President trump really did not bring home the issue of the reason why democrats are embracing race is because they cant offer good schools or good jobs are good neighborhoods, all they can offer is grievance. Biden did not say he would back off on the grievance mongering. Getuse he is trying to charter schools. Hes trying to get more jobs. As a President Trump supporter, you said Vice President biden did a good job. Caller yes, as a trump supporter i am acknowledging biden did much, much better than i thought, given the hype. I thought trump was all over the place and not particularly well focused. But i also think some things, the implications that the truth has been after for 50 years and why do we still have these problems, the truth that it did not matter who was president , california would still have these forest fires, dont the trump did a great job of expressing his viewpoint in a very concise fashion. I think it was all over the place. Host thank you for calling. Motorcade is leaving. We will watch that as we hear from alex in sherwood, arkansas on our support Vice President biden line. Tonight . You hear caller i was impressed seeing them on the stage. It was very interesting seeing them interact. I think a lot of people can see based upon the decorum between the two individuals, we have trump for another four, and that what we can have possibly with bidne. En. Everyone can always argue one point versus the other. In the end, we need to have someone that can represent the United States on the world stage that we are proud of and is a leader in the Global Economy and that we can get back on a path where we can change the climate, save our planet and put the United States on the world stage again as a leader. That we have been come to known everywhere. Host ohio on our support President Trump line. Caller i go by jill. The one thing that i can say about biden was, he had to be reminded the question. And that he did not give direct answers. Well attrump did very pointing to the answers of the questions. Dont think biden can actually debate with other is willing to he stand on national tv and tell someone to shut up. Host do you think this moved the needle for anybody who may be undecided tonight . Caller im not sure. I think we need to see at least one or two more. Host october 15 is the next time you will see these two together. That will be down in miami. Of course cspan will be live with all of it, and your reaction. Does town ohio, support Vice President biden. Hi, i did not really know what to say, but joe gave me the verbiage opening. I think it was hilarious biden told trump to shut up because he was blathering. He would not let biden talk and he kept interrupting him. I found it really funny. They both kind of had a hard time getting out what they wanted to say at the beginning. It was like an awkward debate in the end, but i thought that particular moment was hilarious. Honestly. I think it was really good that biden called him out on that. I was glad he did. I wish Chris Wallace had done the same. I know even julie he did do that, but it was nice to see biden do that. I am going to shut up because i am rambling myself. Host thank you for calling. Bethany is in los angeles on our support President Trump line. Thought trump led the debate. Biden kept rambling on. I am totally for trump. I think he is what we need as a country. Host what is it about the president that you like or support . Caller he is a leader. He is not being puppeteered by his party. As a businessman he is what we need. Host tell us a little bit about yourself. Caller i am a nurse and a mother of two. When he compares you can sees kids, where the priorities are and how they are raised. Host are your children back in school . Are the schools open . Caller im in california, so they are not open. ,e have to take responsibility like the president said, its up to us. That is bethany in los angeles. Is arizona in washington on our support Vice President biden line. Caller yes, this is she. I wanted to say that i think metaphor fortal trumps entire presidency. The fact that he does not know what he is saying, hes not a leader. If you look at biden he cares about people, has class and integrity. He has not lied. There areelieve that still people out there that are not seeing through his bs. Sorry. Host arizona, do you have friends who support President Trump . Caller yes. Host has your relationship got constrained . Gotten strained . Differ in morality. Its not a difference of policy, they just support things i cannot support. Lets hear again from greta brawner. You brought up the upcoming debates and a couple of people talked about that as well. The next debate is the Vice President ial debate on october 7. Is playing might print mike pence in debate prep with kamala harris. This debate is scheduled for october 7 that will be hosted at the university of utah in salt lake city. This is courtesy of usa today, there will be nine 10 minute segments in the debate. This will be the only debate between the Vice President and his challenger. Hismoderator will ask opening question and moderators will have two minutes to respond to questions in each segment. Will beeminder, cspan moderating the third president ial debate. The only correct format is he will be moderating the last debate and the only correct format is to have cspan callers ask the questions with no time limits on them, the questioners. Host maybe we ought to try that. New york on our support President Trump line, what did you hear tonight and did you change your mind . No, i did not change my mind about anything. I am a trump supporter. And i will be supporting him all through this. President would have just kept a little more quiet, but thats the way our president is and thats what i enjoy. He tells the people what they want to hear, and i also believe that he is bringing our country in the right direction. I believe the economy should be open and that schools should be open and businesses should be open. I have family and friends that are losing their lives to these closed economies. Im not happy with that. I understand covid is a big problem, but we are all adults. We are supposed to be. We should mask up when we have to and stay home when we are sick. Its that easy. Our president is leading us into the best position we can be in. With other countries as well. Our military is strong with other countries as well. Our military is strong. Im poor, hes helping me. Thats all i can say. And we got god in the equation. That goes for a long ways. Host prior to covid were you employed and are you still employed . Caller prior to covid i was employed, i was a school bus driver, but i am not now because my husband is compromised and i had to give up my job because i did not want him to get sick. That was my choice, not because i lost my job. Our School Bus Companies supported us through the whole thing. I think present i thank President Trump for that. The house for not helping people when they should. I understand President Trump. I think joe biden did a halfway decent job. He did not stay focused. He kept forgetting where he was supposed to be. When you wake up the next morning and there is nobody left except for yourself, then what do you expect. Anyways. I will let you go. God bless america, god bless our president. Host the support joe biden line. Caller hi. I did not see anything that surprised me. About howrised incoherent the president was, except when he refused to condemn White Supremacy and asked his supporters to go to the polls and intimidate voters. The clearest message i heard from the president tonight. Host how do you think joe biden did . Caller joe biden did pretty well. He should have probably told the president to shut up more often so he could get a word out. Host thank you for calling in. Thanks for watching. Is in wilmington, North Carolina on our support President Trump line. Caller i am in the bathroom. Host we are going to try holly in spokane, washington. Hi, holly. . Hat did you hear tonight caller well, i was really interested to hear what biden had to say. It was hard to understand him when President Trump was consistently talking over him. Getting, the fact of rid of obamacare or General Health care like that, i think its a very bad idea. More people have been able to get the treatments that they need through that. Taking that away will just end up with more dead americans. If both men care about the American People, then they should give them the health care they need. A third line set aside for those of you who are truly undecided or are supporting someone else. We would like to hear you hear your views as well. 2027488922 is that number. And if you would like to send a text its 2027488903. Include your first name and your city. Lets go back to greta. We have a few texts. Never supported a smooth transition, he fired his original Transition Team and went on a rant he spent money. Askedwill they be questions in relation to education . Loan forgiveness . The moderator not empowered to control, moderate the debate with a gavel or mute button. A reminder to our viewers, you can go to cspans twitter account and tell us who you think won the first president ial debate. We are doing a poll and you can find us at cspan. Prescott, iowa on our support President Trump line. How did it go for you tonight . Caller it was interesting. I loves i love trumps passion. I was really surprised that bidens performance. Host are you saying he did better than you expected . Caller definitely. He stood upright and he spoke. He did not get as confused as he has been recently. The thing thats a pride me was it seemed like a debate between wallace and both candidates. I think wallace would put out a subject for them to talk about and then get involved instead of allowing them to have their debate. A are both passionate man. He shouldve stood back and let him go at it. Thats what we want to see. Host if you had been the moderator, is that how you would have done it . Caller exactly. This is the most important election we have ever had. To interrupt and not allow them to respond to each other, i thought was a disservice. Then the lies that were told. The mockingbird media lies that were reported over and over from joe biden. Chris wallace tried to talk to biden about a few of those but he did not carry it through. I am really looking forward to the next debate. Thank cspan. To i love watching you because its uninterrupted and no commentary. Host i want to ask you one question. There was a news report today that the Biden Campaign will be spending money in iowa. Have you seen any commercials on the air . Caller we are bombarded with them. Because they just keep repeating the same lines over and over. Most of us iowans do research. Theont believe what mockingbird media keeps repeating, the same lies. We know the truth about the media. I just bypassed them or put it on mute. Host do you see trump commercials . Caller not as many. They are bombarding us with democrat ones. And they repeat them over and over. The same commercials. They dont divide them up. Its disgusting. Host next caller is rusty in erie, pennsylvania. You are calling in undecided why are you undecided, and are you leaning anyway, and did the debate affect you . Thatr my opinion is gentlemen have to be gentlemen. What i saw tonight from donald trump was not a gentleman. He was on the attack. Joe biden tried to respond and so on and so forth, but neither of them, not one of them listened to the moderator. I think that the moderator needed to get more control over what was going on in the debate so that we could actually hear issues. Thats what sucked the American People down into the abyss of argument. There is no give and take, there is only give. You are going to take what i take and so on. That is not what america is based on. Host who did you support in 2016, and did tonights debate move your opinion . Vote, in 2016 i did not and im sad. But i could not vote for hillary. Tonight, im supporting biden. Opinion,rump, in my does not stand for the things that america stands for. Back at his history, he has no understanding of american history. How can he lead us if he doesnt . Back, how can we not go back and look and learn from history and move forward . I dont think he can do that. Host thats rusty in erie, pa. Up next is matt in westfield center, ohio on our support joe biden line. What did you think of the debate . Caller it was something. Go ahead. Caller it was kind of embarrassing to see the leader of the free world interrupting, not only biden but also the moderator. To see the way he kind of spoke over everyone. Its how hes been leading the country the last couple of years. Host ron is in parkersburg, West Virginia on our support President Trump line. What was your view of the debate tonight . Caller i thought Chris Wallace was a distraction. When trump would point out the facts he would cut him off. Trump has been treated differently than the farleft has been treated. I think chris has been bought and picked for paid for by the same people bidens bought and paid for. This country is under attack. Biden reminded me of a politician from yesteryear. He is not giving any facts. He is not telling how he will do it because there is no plan. Its just all politics. Trump has proven and has done things. My economy is much better because of trump. Ive got the numbers to prove that. It will be interesting to see how things go. Host how open is parkersburg, West Virginia today . Caller i am going to say its 75 . Host our most people Wearing Masks . Caller its mixed. Its kind of mixed. Enclosed spaces they respect that. There was a study that says masks are not that effective. I think handwashing and social distancing, taking precautions. Trump product they good point about protect the elderly. If you have diabetes and cardiovascular issues, they need to be protected. I think the european issues do the same. Which is why their numbers have been better. Host christopher in mooresville, vermont, undecided. Why are you undecided . Caller i had a hard time with this from the beginning because i feel like we are living in vermont and everything is so polarized. I tried to maybe go back towards the center. Whichs so hard to know of these two candidates are going to be better for us. I was disappointed with the debate. I wanted to know more about what mr. Biden would do for the
