HUGH HEWITT (HOST): I have no idea how the market's going to react, if at all, to that first debate. Probably a wash, politically, may have depressed turnout — which is good for Trump. May have given some talking points to Team Trump.

Never seen a — a candidate for the presidency describe the commander-in-chief and head of state as “racist,“ as a “fool,“ as a “liar.” I mean that — Joe Biden was as bad as Donald Trump, and in many — as a “clown” — much more, in many respects.
