While the interruptions made the debate hard to follow, it's what U.S. President Donald Trump didn't say that was notable. When asked to condemn white supremacists and far-right militias, Trump would not. When asked if he would call on his supporters to remain calm if the vote wasn't decided on election night, Trump railed against mail-in voting.
At times,Trump drew insults from his exasperated opponent Joe Biden.
Today, CBC Washington correspondent Alex Panetta walks us through the highlights of the debate, and breaks down what each candidate's performance tells us about the race.
