WATCH: Glenn Beck’s immediate reaction to last night’s debate
Last night, former President Donald Trump debated President Joe Biden for the first time since 2020 in the first presidential debate.
Hosted by CNN and moderated by Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, the debate covered a number of topics, including the illegal immigration crisis, abortion, Ukraine/Russia, Israel/Hamas, and inflation, among others.
What may surprise some is that Glenn Beck’s first criticism is directed toward Donald Trump.

“Here is a missed opportunity for Donald Trump,” he says. When Biden was stumbling and stuttering through one of his responses, “Donald Trump should have said, ‘You know what, we can sit here and argue about things, but more countries than ever before are developing and pursuing us with threats of nuclear war ... but right now, that man will make the decision. Does anyone feel comfortable with that?”’
That aside, Glenn does think “that’s the best debate [Trump] has done,” at least “up until the last 30 minutes.”
“He was the most restrained I have ever seen him,” he says. “The first hour of that debate I thought was absolutely terrifying and also absolutely a win for Donald Trump.”
As for Biden, when Glenn saw him “walk out [on stage] like a cadaver,” he knew the next 90 minutes didn’t bode well for him.
At the president’s first garbled, incoherent sentence, “I thought if I am the enemy of the United States of America, I am doing everything I can to make sure [Biden] wins. If I am an enemy of the United States, I am thinking, ‘attack now,’” Glenn tells Stu Burguiere.
“Look at the decay of him from six months, a year, two years. He's asking for four more years! He won't understand what's going on in a year from now,” he says, adding that it’s “close to criminal that the 25th Amendment hasn’t been invoked.”
Stu agrees, calling the prospect of Biden’s re-election “national suicide.”
What’s perhaps most shocking, however, is that during the debate, the mainstream media and Democrats were calling for Biden’s replacement in the race.
“So, now we know why they scheduled a debate now. It's clear,” says Glenn, insinuating that the timing of the debate was the left’s means of proving the necessity of Biden’s replacement.
The question is: Who will replace him?

Disney’s 'Dr. Who' goes LGBTQ with cast of gender bending characters
It only took around four minutes for the first transgender character to show up in Disney’s new "Dr. Who" series — and viewers are overwhelmingly not pleased.
“Not only were we very quickly presented as viewers with a trans singer, but for some reason, the show’s writers also thought it would be appropriate and fun to portray this iteration of the Doctor as someone who, you know, likes to get down at gay dance clubs,” Lauren Chen comments.
The Doctor is also wearing a skirt in the opening scene.
“Him and the costume director have been very clear that he actually wanted to gender-bend the Doctor’s wardrobe in this series for some reason,” Chen says.
While the gayification of the series is undeniably a massive reason for the negative feedback, the show itself isn’t written well enough to make up for it.
“This shows attempt at providing fantastical yet sciency-seeming premises for these outrageous events to occur,” Chen explains is “failing awfully.”
The show predictably has a whopping 97% critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes — but only a 36% audience rating.
“Because of course, it’s new, it’s gay, it’s black. That must make it wonderful,” Chen says, noting that one of the show's main villains is also a drag queen who used to be on "RuPaul’s Drag Race."
“I get that Russell T. Davies wants to be inclusive and affirming of LGBT people, but really I think it’s gotten to the point now where 'Dr. Who' just exists as a platform for him to expose the audience to diverse elements,” she adds.
