Former Vice President Joe Biden's exasperated request for
President Trump pretty much sums up the first half hour of the first presidential debate.Biden and Trump faced off Tuesday for their first 2020 debate, but for after the first couple questions, there wasn't much information to get out of it. That's because every time Biden spoke, Trump would butt in, with not much pushback from moderator Chris Wallace. Biden generally refused to engage with Trump's taunts, but after a bit, issued a simple request: "Would you shut up, man?"
Biden also tended to avoid Trump's false accusations and claims about the
Coronavirus and
economy, at one point declaring "I'm not here to call out his lies, everybody knows he's a liar."
