"When Trump's audit started I was straight." –Billy Eichner
"Joe Biden looks like the most tired, defeated, hack politician ever to draw breath in the history of this nation. He makes the word 'hello' sound like a talking point. #ByeByeOldJoe … Trump absolutely rolled over Joe Biden like a steamroller." –James Woods
"'And we had a 'good relationship' with Hitler before he invaded.' Biden got them ZINGERS tonight ya'll #Debates2020" –Aisha Tyler, reacting to Biden's comment after Trump touted his relationship with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un
"Also, can we take a second to acknowledge that Trump said to [moderator] Kristen Welker… A BLACK WOMAN … that he's the least racist person in the room #Debates2020" –Yara Shahidi
"I'm sorry but 30 secs on the Hunter allegations is a joke. … Trump won this debate, handily. Biden wasn't a force at all. Trump was substantive, on-point, well-tempered. Definitely helped himself, when it mattered most." –Megyn Kelly
"If I read anybody saying 'Trump was Presidential' or about his new tone or how he was restrained I'm gonna walk into the exact middle of the forest and lay down until time and insects take me home." –Kumail Nanjiani
"Not surprising but sad that Trump will resort to anything at this point cuz America has turned on him. These relentless attacks on Hunter Biden are so desperate, so pathetic. When Biden's elected you think he'll put Hunter in charge of his COVID Task Force or Mid East peace?" –Billy Baldwin
"Great night @realDonaldTrump won big time!" –Antonio Sabato Jr.
"'I don't look at this in terms that he does: blue states and red states. It's The United States.' @JoeBiden is running to unite this country that has been ripped at the seams. #PresidentialDebate2020" –Uzo Aduba
"#JoeBiden by a mile! No contest. Cogent, patient & so smart, alongside the dimmest bulb in the pack. What an awful man, & what a horrible presidency. His name will live in infamy. Which reminds me…is StephenMiller dead? Over 540 children will never see their families again." –Bette Midler
"#Trump kept talking beyond his allotted time. Kristen tried to stop him because his time WAS OVER. But once again, Trump showed his disdain for a woman of color, and just chimed in after every subject was supposed to be finished. She COULD have sternly stopped him. She didn't. … Trump did not tell America what he was going to do if he is re-elected. He just was a raving lunatic while Biden systematically *answered the questions in detail. #BidenWon" –Debra Messing
"Come on man @JoeBiden is a LIAR!" –Scott Baio
"Joe Biden spoke the Truth with grace and poise and stood his ground against every one of Trumps lies. #BidenWon #debates … The difference between Biden and Trump is clear. Biden is the candidate of possibility. Trump tells us it's not his fault, it doesn't exist or it's impossible to fix. From Climate Change, Police Reform,Covid,Racism, Trump offers nothing. Biden has plans to address all of them." –Mark Ruffalo
"New York is not your wonderful city. New Yorkers hate you." –Joy Behar, reacting to President Trump's comments about his former fondness for his New York City hometown
"Biden sounds very clear, capable and focused. Trump sounds like…well, Trump. … Trump only runs on fear. Biden runs on hope. Let's elevate hope over fear. … At the end of the day, the press will conclude that Trump did so much better than expected, that he didn't melt into a screaming shallow puddle, that he can feel proud of his performance. This is because the press has been gaslit for four years and now has Stockholm Syndrome. … Kudos to the moderator for keeping this together and letting Trump hang himself." –George Takei
"Whoa no s***!" –Patton Oswalt, in response to a debate fact-check tweet from NBC News that read, "Fact check: There is no evidence to support President Trump's claim that Joe Biden got $3.5M from Russia. https://nbcnews.to/3dOlQ54"
