US presidential candidates Donald Trump and Joe Biden argued in absentia over the outcome of the first debate that took place the day before.
In particular, acting White House incumbent Donald Trump, during a speech to supporters in Minnesota, said he enjoyed the debate.
«I really enjoyed the debate with Sleepy Joe last night, ”Trump said.
According to him, the candidate debates showed «highest ratings in cable TV history. “
At the same time, according to Nielsen, about 73.1 million people watched the debate on television, up from 84 million in 2016.
In turn, Democratic candidate Joe Biden called his opponent’s behavior shameful.
«The way the president of the United States behaved is simply a national disgrace, ”ABC News quotes Biden as saying.
The first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden took place on the night of September 30 in Cleveland. The second debate will take place on October 15 in Miami and the third in Nashville on October 22.
A CNN poll found that six in ten viewers of a debate in America think that Joe Biden did the best.
Most CBS News viewers also named Joe Biden as the winner of the debate.
The US presidential elections are scheduled for November 3.
