POLL: Who lost the U.S. presidential debate last night?

It was quite a debate between U.S. presidential candidates last night.

President Donald Trump and former vice-president Joe Biden squared off for the first of three scheduled presidential debates and it was unlike anything we've seen before. Trump continually interrupted and attacked Biden and was admonished by the moderator several times. Meanwhile, Biden twice called Trump a "clown" and once told him to shut up. 

So, whether you watched the debate last night or just caught the highlights since, we're curious what you thought. It would be hard to call anyone a winner from that debate, so we're asking the question a little differently. Who lost the debate?
