Chris Wallace says he didn’t realise president’s approach would be to hector throughout
Chris Wallace, the
Fox News journalist who acted as moderator during Tuesday’s chaotic US presidential debate between
Donald Trump and
Joe Biden, has spoken for the first time about the experience, saying: “I never dreamt that it would go off the tracks the way it did.”
At the start of the evening, when Trump first started speaking directly at Biden, Wallace recalled thinking: “This was great – this is a debate!” But it soon transpired that Trump’s plan was to attempt to steamroller Biden with constant hectoring interruptions.
