'Out of control': Sporting world reacts to chaotic Presidential debate
The sporting world has reacted to the chaotic Presidential debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden on Wednesday (AEST) and the overwhelming message was clear: vote.
President Trump and Biden entered into a slinging-match, which was described as “out of control” and “comedic”.
WOW: NBA owner's brilliant act for troubled former player West
HILARIOUS: Comedian makes brilliant mockery of AFL's GF plan
The pair traded barbs and mediator Chris Wallace did his best to control the debate, despite on multiple occasions both Trump and Biden completely ignoring him.
Many quickly complained about both Biden and Trump.
Some sport stars even called for Fox News anchor Chris Wallace to have control to cut off the mic of either who cut in.
NBA star Kyle Lowry praised Wallace for doing his best to control the debate and “being an adult”.
This debate is out of control!! Why have a moderator when he can’t even control it!

This debate is the best sitcom of the year. This is pure comedy and the level of disrespect is off the charts. #Truth #LordHelpus

....someone please explain to me why they don’t mute the microphone of the candidate who isn’t supposed to be speaking, especially when the moderator is continuously forgetting to actually moderate???

One of the eye-opening moments from the first debate was when President Trump failed to condemn white supremacy when asked directly, too — something that stunned plenty.
Donald Trump still couldn’t deny white supremacy. By the way Trump told the Proud Boys to STAND BY.
