Donald Trump Tried To Spin His Debate Flop With 3 Words. It Did Not Go Well.
GOP nominee Donald Trump’s debate performance against Democratic rival Kamala Harris on Tuesday earned less-than-glowing reviews from both sides of the aisle.
But according to the former president, it was actually his “best debate ever.”
Trump made the boast to reporters in the post-debate spin room and on his Truth Social platform, where he wrote: “I thought that was my best Debate, EVER, especially since it was THREE ON ONE!”
That last bit was presumably a reference to moderators Linsey Davis and David Muir, who Trump is now complaining were unfair to him.
Critics mocked Trump’s “best debate ever” claim, with several suggesting that his very presence in the spin room was proof that even he knew he’d flopped.
Trump- “This was my best debate ever. Everyone’s agreed I won.”
Random Media Guy in the Spin Room- “If you won, why are you here?”

Nothing says you didn't win the debate like going to the spin room and telling everyone it was "the best debate" you've ever had. pic.twitter.com/L6Z95Bwpkz
