Trump talked about the debate’s high TV ratings and said he held his opponent, Joe Biden, accountable for his 47 years of previous political work. “I held Joe accountable for shipping your jobs and dreams abroad,” he told the crowd, adding that the believed Biden was “weak.”
Trump also talked about how he believed moderator Chris Wallace was “very, very, very easy by comparison” to the other things a president has to deal with.
