Wow and the BBC are supposed to be unbiased, what a joke.

[knockedoutloaded]

I bet the BBC was up all night worrying how on earth they were going to spin this for Biden 😂

[Ddddonnn]

What do you mean who won? Only one person was there...

[rust]

Dont believe your eyes and ears believe our spin. Shameful

[neoikake]

If you need to ask that BBC you need to stop journalism.

[oldtopgearsaab]

Trump didnt just win, he completely HUMILIATED Biden 😂

[kenpeacock]

This review of the debate is simply disgusting… no wonder mainstream media is dying…

[KabonkNo]

"He has obviously got a cold". Yeah, since 2019.

[GIBBO]

Joe’s family should be ashamed of themselves…he should be in a retirement home

Mainstream media streamers, CNN NBC ABC, disable their chat meanwhile conservative streamers like Fox didn’t. This tells you they’re panicking.

You guys are a disgrace! Can you imagine such inaccuracies on the coverage of the debate.

[boris]

Even the far left BBC spin doctors can't save JOEMENTIA. 😂😂😂😂😂

[URBeingLiedTo]

Biden is a mess, I can't take his supporters seriously.

[jackd]

Where is the honesty from the BBC one Man CRUSHED the other

[kevinb]

lol it's not even a question. Trump completely dominated it.

[watsondove]

I despise the BBC, nothing's changed

[Ricky-trhd]

Are they actually questioning who won? 😂 Let's ALL cancell our TV licence. 😂

[spulamander]

I remember when the BBC used to be reputable. Now just ignorant left leaning talking heads.

[richardanson]

What the correspondent didn’t describe was the way Donald Trump pretty much won the debate with his mere facial expressions as he looked on skeptically as Biden bumbled his way through the questions. 😂

[notjustforhackers]

I'd prefer to make up my own mind rather than have BBC 'reporters' tell me what they think. To be honest. This is a video full of blah, blah, blah.
