KENT JUSTICE: AND WELCOME BACK. THIS IS A POST OF A SHOW HERE POST FROM THE CNN PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. YOU'VE BEEN WATCHING JOIN I ALONG WITH OUR GUEST. WE WATCHED THE DEBATE HERE AT THE CHANNEL 4 STUDIOS. JOINING US FOR OUR POST SHOWS OUR ROUNDTABLE OF POLITICAL ANALYSTS. ALONG WITH OUR REPORTERS WHO ARE AT DEBATE WATCH PARTIES ALL AROUND TOWN TONIGHT. AND 2 STUDENTS FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH FLORIDA WHO HAVE A HOT TAKE ON THE YOUNGER VOTE. SO FOR NOW, LET'S LISTEN TO SOME OF THOSE HEATED MOMENTS WE HEARD TONIGHT. THE TOTAL INITIATIVE RELATIVE TO WHAT WE CAN DO WITH MORE BORDER PATROL AND MORE SIGNING OFF. PRESIDENT

TRUMP. >> I REALLY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HE SAYS. THE END OF THIS SAID DON'T THINK HE KNOWS WHAT HE SAID. HE THAT I WENT TO THE WAR TO CEMETERY. WE WANT CHOOSE TO GO TO HOUSTON NEWS. 4 STAR GENERAL AND HE TOLD ME SHOULD I DO WANT TO GO IN THERE BECAUSE A BUNCH LOSERS AND SUCKERS. >> MY SON WAS NOT ONLY IS IT WAS NOT A SUCKER YOU SOCCER, YOU'RE THE LOSING ONLY SHUN THE STAGES OF CONVICTED FELONS LOOKING AT RIGHT BUT WHEN HE TALKS ABOUT A CONVICTED FELON, HIS SON IS A CONVICTED FELON AND A VERY HIGH LEVEL. HIS SON IS CONVICTED, GOING TO BE CONVICTED, PROBABLY NUMEROUS

OTHER TIMES SHOULD HAVE BEEN CONVICTED BEFORE, BUT HIS JUSTICE DEPARTMENT LET THE STATUTE LIMITATIONS LAPS AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS. BUT HE COULD BE A CONVICTED FELON SOON AS HE GETS OUT OF OFFICE. JOE COULD BE A CONVICTED FELON WITH ALL OF THE THINGS THAT HE'S DONE HAVING AND THE ON THE NIGHT WAY PREGNANT. WOULD HE TALK ABOUT. >> UNION, THE MORALS AN ALLEY CAT. >> AND JOINING US AGAIN, OUR PANEL OF POLITICAL ANALYST RICK MULLANEY FROM THE PUBLIC POLICY STITE. JOHN NEWMAN, LOCAL PASTOR FOR 40 YEARS AND A POLITICAL STRATEGISTS AND GOVERNMENT LAW ATTORNEY, FORMER CHIEF OF STAFF OR ALVIN

BROWN, CHRIS HAND IS WITH US. ALL RIGHT. WHO WANTS TO GO FIRST? >> KENT JUSTICE: THERE WAS A LOT OF WHAT WE SAW. CHRIS, YOUR SO WE'RE GOING WITH BY HUGHES, 2 CANDIDATES. THEY DON'T LIKE EACH. I MEAN, IT WAS A PERSONAL DEBATE. 2 CANDIDATES WHO DON'T LIKE EACH OTHER, WE HAVE VERY KIND OF DIFFERENT. >> VISIONS FOR THE COUNTRY AND STRONGLY OPPOSE THE OTHER CANDIDATES VISION AS WELL. YOU KNOW, BEFORE THE DEBATE, WE TALKED ABOUT A COUPLE OF THINGS. ONE WAS WHAT WAS GOING TO BE THE IMPACT ON THOSE VOTERS. THE SO-CALLED DOUBLE HEADER VOTERS WHO DON'T WANT EITHER OF THOSE CANDIDATES.

I'M NOT SURE WE SAW ANYTHING TONIGHT THAT MADE THOSE VOTERS FEEL BETTER ABOUT EITHER OF THE CANDIDATES IN THE RACE. WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT SOME OF THE CANDIDATES STRATEGIC IMPERATIVES FOR PRESIDENT BIDEN. I LISTED 3. 1. WAS TO BE TO CHANNEL THAT MARCH STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS, BE ENERGETIC, GIVE AS GOOD AS HE GOT. AND THERE WERE SOME MOMENTS OF THAT. BUT IT DID NOT MATCH THE SAME TONE AS THE MARCH STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS. NUMBER 2 IS TO DRAW KIND OF AN EFFECT OF CONTRAST BETWEEN HIMSELF AND PRESIDENT TRUMP ON SOME ISSUES. HE DID THAT LIKE FOREIGN POLICY, LIKE SCHOOL POLICY AT TIMES. BUT OTHERS HE SORT OF LET THE

FORMER PRESIDENT OUTFLANKED HIM ON ISSUES LIKE REPRODUCTIVE CHOICE AND ABORTION. AND, YOU KNOW, THE 3RD ISSUE WE TALKED ABOUT WAS PROVIDED COMPELLING ANSWER ON INFLATION. ONE THING THAT WAS SURPRISING TONIGHT WAS THAT INFLATION WASN'T MORE OF A SUBJECT THE DEBATE. THERE WAS SOME DISCUSSION BETWEEN THE CANDIDATES ON THAT. BUT IT REALLY WAS SORT OF DOMINATED BY OTHER ISSUES, SOME OF WHICH WEREN'T POLICY RELATED, SOME OF WHICH WERE MORE PERSONAL IN AND RICK POINT, I KNOW YOU WANT TO POLICY JOHN NEWMAN, YOU REFERENCE IN OUR PRE-SHOW, HEY, SOME OF THESE MAY BE BODY LANGUAGE. THINGS COULD BE OFF. >> I WANT TO TALK ABOUT ONE

THING THAT STOOD OUT TO ME. THE FIRST MOMENT I HEARD PRESIDENT BIDEN SPEAK, HIS VOICE SEEMED WEAK. THERE ARE SOME OF THESE INTANGIBLE THINGS THAT ALSO IMPACT HOW A VIEWER RECEIVES SPEAKERS IN THE DEBATE. YES, SO MUCH OF THIS IS FOR. AND I THINK IN MANY INSTANCES HE DIDN'T PROJECT WELL, AND THAT FITS NARRATIVE THAT'S BEEN ALREADY PUT OUT THERE ABOUT HIM. AND AT THIS POINT REALLY IS ABOUT THE NARRATIVES. PEOPLE KIND OF HAVE BIG IN WHAT THEY ALREADY ARE PREDISPOSED TO THINK ABOUT THE CANDIDATES ON BOTH SIDES. IN FOR PRESIDENT BIDEN, CHRIS SAID IT HAD TO BE MORE ENERGY. AND HE DIDN'T ALWAYS PROJECT THAT. SOMETIMES DID. SOMETIMES

DIDN'T CLEARLY TRUMP WAS BASICALLY DOING HIS GREATEST HITS, BUT HE WAS ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT D ARND KD FOU A WAY TO DO TONIGHT. BUT ALWAYS NO MATTER WHAT IT WAS OUT TALKING ABOUT CHILD CARE. BUT IT'S IMMIGRATION TALKING ABOUT WHATEVER IMMIGRATION. BUT THERE'S SO MUCH BAKED IN ALREADY TO HAVE TO BE SOME KIND OF DEMARCATION TO SEPARATE WHAT'S ALREADY BAKED IN. FACTS ARE NOT NEARLY AS IMPORTANT AS WHAT THE NARRATIVE IS. TALKING ABOUT THIS EARLIER. OUR ECONOMY IS FUNDAMENTALLY STRONG, BUT THE NARRATIVE IS THAT IT'S GOING TO HELP. IMMIGRANTS BY AND LARGE WHO COME IN ILLEGALLY DO

NOT COME AT A HIGH LEVEL OF TIME. BUT THE NARRATIVE IS ALL THE CRIME GOING UP RIGHT NOW IS BECAUSE OF IMMIGRATION. SO IT'S REALLY ABOUT THE NARRATIVE THAT PRESIDENT BIDEN HAS HAS A LOT TO BREAK. FACTS, BUT THE STORYTELLING IS NOT AS STRONG AS NEEDS TO BE. AND TONIGHT THE NEED TO BE SOMETHING STRENGTHEN THE STORY. AND IN MANY WAYS DIDN'T QUITE HEAR RICK. I KNOW THAT YOU'VE GOT A REACTION TO THIS DEBATE THAT WE WATCHED HERE FOR AN HOUR AND A HALF AS OVER DISAPPOINTING DEBATE ON A POSITIVE NOTE. LET ME SAY THIS WAS AN EXPERIMENT WITH THE MICROPHONES BE MUTED AND EXPERIMENT. >> WITH NO DIEN ANDI

THINK THERE'S SOME THINGS TO WORK OUT. BUT THAT HAS SOME POTENTIAL FOR THE FUTURE. IT ACTUALLY, IT ACTUALLY CAN WORK. AND IF YOU LOOK BACK AT THE RECENT DEBATES, THE 5 IN THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY, THEY WERE WORST BRAWLS. YOU CAN'T STOP PEOPLE FROM BEING DISPARAGING, WHICH HAPPENED TONIGHT. BUT THOSE WERE WORSE. I THINK THAT IT DOES PUT A LITTLE BIT GREATER BURDEN ON THE MODERATORS. AND I THOUGHT THEY DID A GOOD JOB, BUT THEY WERE RELUCTANT TO ENTER THE FRAY. I THOUGHT THEY'RE TRYING TO BE OBJECTIVE IN THAT KIND OF SITUATION. YOU NEED FOLLOW-UP QUESTIONS BECAUSE ONE OF THE DEFINING PARTS OF THIS DEBATE

WAS THE FAILURE TO ANSWER TO BE REONVE QUESTIONS AND THAT PUTS A BURDEN ON THE MODERATE. SO PROCEDURALLY ON THAT NOTE ON THE ON THE MICROPHONES AND AND AS FAR AS AUDIENCE, I THINK THERE'S POTENTIAL FOR THE FUTURE. THAT WAS AN IMPROVEMENT. BUT ON THE DEBATE ITSELF, I SAID COMING IN TONIGHT, THE BIG QUESTION THE NATION WAS ASKING WAS, DOES JOE BIDEN HAVE THE MENTAL AND PHYSICAL FITNESS? THE STAMINA ENERGY TO SERVE FOR ANOTHER 4 YEARS? I'M NOT SO SURE HE ANSWERED THAT TONIGHT WITH A RESOUNDING YES, IT WAS A LITTLE BIT PROBLEMATIC IN FOR JEN AND FOR DONALD TRUMP. COULD HE HAVE THE DISCIPLINE

TO NOT LOOK TO THE PAST, TO NOT BE A PERSONAL GRIEVANCE, AND TO LOOK FORWARD. I'M NOT SO SURE HE WAS DISCIPLINED EITHER. HE WAS RAMBLING, AND THE D HA OF THE DEBATE, HE WAS NOT RESPONSIVE TO QUESTIONS. I THOUGHT IT WAS A CHALLENGING NIGHT FOR BOTH. I REALLY DO. >>JOY PURDY: VERY INTERESTING. WE JUST POPPED UP A GRAPHIC SHOWING ACCORDING TO NBC NEWS, 7 BIG ISSUES AT STAKE IN THE 2024 ELECTION. YOU SEE IT NOW. ABORTION AND WOMEN'S RIGHTS, IMMIGRATION AND THE SOUTHERN BORDER, HEALTH CARE AND PRESCRIPTION DRUGS, TAXES, JUDGES IN THE SUPREME COURT, TRADE WITH FOREIGN NATIONS, AND FOREIGN POLICY AND NATO.

CONCERNS TO 2 MAJOR WARS GOING  ON: THE WAR BETWEEN RUSSIA AND  UKRAINE, AND THE WAR IN THE  MIDDLE EAST THAT'S  INCREASINGLY BECOMING A  REGIONAL WAR. ALSO, YOU KNOW,  GOING BACK TO BEING TOLD THAT  WE HAVE SOME SOUND FROM THE  DEBATE TALKING ABOUT FOREIGN  POLICY. LET'S LISTEN.  >> AND AS FAR AS HIS STATE IS  CONCERNED, I WAS GETTING OUT  OF AFGHANISTAN, BUT WE ARE  GETTING OUT WITH DIGNITY, WITH  STRENGTH, WITH POWER. HE GOT  OUT. IT WAS THE MOST  EMBARRASSING DAY. ISRAEL WOULD  HAVE NEVER BEEN INVADED IN A  MILLION YEARS BY HAMAS. YOU  KNOW WHY? BECAUSE IRAN WAS  BROKE WITH ME. I WOULD LET

ANYBODY DO BUSINESS WITH THEM. THEY RAN OUT OF MONEY. THEY WERE BROKE. THAT NO MONEY FOR HAMAS. THEY HAD NO MONEY FOR ANYTHING, NO MONEY FOR TERROR. THAT'S WHY YOU HAD NO TERROR AT ALL DURING MY ADMINISTRATION. THIS PLACE, THE WHOLE WORLD IS BLOWING UP UNDER HIM. VERY INTERESTING. >>JOY PURDY: 2 THINGS THAT I NOTICED. NUMBER ONE, YOU CALLED IT, JOHN. TAKE A LOOK AT SEE HOW SEE IT AND WAS GOING TO BE PRESENTING THIS. THEY DID DO THE SPLIT SCREEN. SO EVEN THOUGH MIKES WERE MUTED, WE COULD SEE REACTIONS BECAUSE THEY PUT THEM BOTH UP. BUT COND, I OUGHIT WAS A GREAT IDEA TO KEEP THE

QUESTIONS UP THERE THAT THEY HAD ASKED BECAUSE YOU DON'T REALIZE HOW MUCH OFF TOPIC BOTH OF THEM WENT. TELL YOU, YOU KNOW, THE QUESTIONS RIGHT WAITING FOR THE TO THE PLACE THAT MADE US IT MADE IT EASY FOR VIEWERS TO THAT WAS THE QUESTION. BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. ONE POINT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT GOLF. >> THERE WAS NEVER A QUESTION ABOUT TOURNAMENT ON THE SPLIT SCREEN. I ACTUALLY THINK THE SPLIT SCREEN HURT JOE BIDEN TONIGHT. THIS WAS NOT THE JOE BIDEN OF THE STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS. IN THAT ADDRESS, HE WAS AN ER JET, A VERY ENERGETIC, RY HIGH. HE WAS SOMEWHAT IN COMMAND AND GOT HIGH MARKS FOR IT. TONIGHT WAS

NOT THAT JOE BIDEN AND THE SPLIT SCREEN HURT. DONALD TRUMP MAY HAVE BEEN RAMBLING AND NON-RESPONSIVE, BUT HE LOOKED ENERGETIC AND HE LOOKED IN COMMAND. JOE BIDEN DID NOT LOOK IN COMMAND AND DID NOT QUITE HAVE THE ENERGY. I THOUGHT IT WAS A CHALLENGING DEBATE TO WATCH, BUT I THINK IT WAS A PARTICULARLY CHALLENGING NIGHT FOR JOE BIDEN. DONALD TRUMP DID NOT MEET THE STANDARD OF THE DISCIPLINE. I THOUGHT HE NEEDED TO HAVE A GREAT NIGHT, BUT HE HAD ENOUGH TO SHOW ENERGY ON THE AGE ISSUE AND ENOUGH TO SHOW COMMAND. AND I THINK IN THE END THAT GIVES THEM AN IN CHRISTMAS. THIS THE VOTERS WHO DON'T LIKE EITHER

CANDIDATE. >> WHERE THEY HELPED AT ALL TONIGHT, I DON'T THINK THEY WERE BECAUSE I THINK SOME OF THE TRAITS THEY DON'T LIKE ABOUT BOTH OF THESE CANDIDATES. WE'RE VERY PRESENT SORT OF THROUGHOUT THE DEBATE. IF YOU'RE AN UNDECIDED VOTER WHO'S CONCERNED ABOUT DONALD TRUMP'S RELATIONSHIP TO THE TRUTH AND HE'S KIND OF THE WAY HE ADDRESSED HIS POLITICAL ENEMIES AND THOSE SORTS OF ISSUES. PROBABLY YOU DIDN'T SEE A LOT DIFFERENT. RICK IS TOTALLY RIGHT. HE WAS MORE INCOME AND MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE, MORE ENERGETIC. I'M NOT SURE HE WAS MORE PRESIDENTIAL THAN HE OFTEN IS. AND I THINK THAT IS A TRAIT THAT SOME OF THOSE

KIND OF DOUBLE HEADER VOTERS  ARE BONE. DIDN'T LIKE BOTH  CANDIDATES ARE LOOKING FOR FOR  JOE BIDEN. AND I SAY THIS  RESPECTFULLY. HIS STRATEGIC  IMPERATIVE COMING IN,  PARTICULARLY WITH THOSE SWING  VOTERS AND THOSE VOTERS WHO  DON'T LIKE OTHER CANDIDATES,  WAS TO SHOW HIMSELF AS  ENERGETIC, INCOME, AND UP TO  THE JOB. AND I'M NOT SURE THAT  HE ACCOMPLISHED THAT STRATEGIC  IMPERATIVE THIS EVENING. SO  I'M NOT SURE THOSE VOTERS CAMP  OR IN ANY DIFFERENT PLACE  AFTER THIS DEBATE THEY  WERE BEFOREHAND. THANK YOU,  CHRIS. ALL RIGHT. STICK WITH  US. WE'RE GOING TO BE RIGHT  BACK AFTER THIS BREAK.
