Some Australian perspective: The level of the debate never got above nasty, petty, juvenile. All on the
panel i'm watching saw Trump as the worst offender by far. Another said, it's a barometer of the country.
I disagree with the "never" got above that level, still too much of it was rabble.
It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
