NBC
Following the first presidential debate, the discussion has largely focused on panic from the Democratic side over Joe Biden’s performance. But as Ruth Ben-Ghiat and former Sen. Doug Jones (D-AL) point out, Trump did the public a disservice by lying the entire night. “This wasn’t a debate,” Ben-Ghiat tells Ali Velshi.

Jones cautions people to have some patience. “The presidency is much more than a single debate,” he says.
