President Donald Trump was the most improved performer at Thursday’s debate, but a panel of debate experts told NBC News that Joe Biden was more effective with his arguments.
The three experts all agreed the faceoff was more informative than the chaotic first debate in Cleveland last month, but one noted, “That’s a very low bar.”
While Trump’s strategy of interrupting less and letting Biden speak more in hopes of provoking a gaffe from the former vice president was a sound strategy, the experts said Biden didn’t make the type of major mistake Trump probably needed to change the race.
