I came away from the September 29 presidential debate of the opinion that Joe Biden displayed a total lack of decorum, not only toward President Trump personally but also the office of the presidency, which he seeks.

Biden should publicly apologize to President Trump and the nation for his disrespectful, insulting and ill-advised remarks!
