President Biden and Donald Trump tangled over the economy, COVID-19 and abortion in the first 20 minutes of Thursday night's debate, and then it got personal, with insults over who is the worst president and who is a criminal. And then, their golf games.
When it was done, political experts expressed grave concerns over Biden's performance, from his demeanor to how he opened himself up to attacks from Trump. Democrats responded with panic.
The stakes were high for both men. Trump holds a narrow lead over Biden nationally at 45 percent to 44 percent, according to a Decision Desk HQ/The Hill aggregate of polls.
