that the debate audience “went crazy” for his performance. Host Greg Gutfeld chose not to fact-check Trump over the fact that there was no debate audience whatsoever, per the rules set by ABC News and agreed to by both campaigns.

“They didn’t correct her once,” Trump complained, referring to Vice President

. “And they corrected me, everything I said, practically. I think nine times or 11 times. And the audience was absolutely — they went crazy.”

MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes argued that the *********** candidate’s remark validated concerns about his age and mental capacity.

“Trump talking about ‘the audience’ at the debate (where there famously was no audience) is more delusional and unsettling than any moment of Joe Biden misspeaking all year and it’s not close,” Hayes

That has not stopped ************* pundits from characterizing ABC’s fact-checking as overzealous and unfair to Trump, who claims he had “great debate” despite viewers and pundits largely agreeing that it was “disastrous.”

“You got a lot of people watching, we had 75 million people watching, something like that. You have to do well, you can’t do badly,” Trump said, adding that he wondered if the Democrats would swap Harris out of the ticket if she performs badly.
