Piers Morgan blasts 'trainwreck' Trump and Biden debate - branding them 'disgraceful'

Piers Morgan slammed President Donald Trump and Joe Biden's presidential debate, hailing it a "trainwreck" and a "total shambles".

The 55-year-old GMB presenter had woken up at 3.30am to watch the debate but was incredibly disappointed.

An annoyed Piers branded it a "trainwreck of epic proportions".

"It was vicious, personal, like a couple of kids in the playground," Piers told co-star Susanna Reid.

"[Biden] was not sharp, he did not react in the way he should have done," Susanna added.

Meanwhile Piers said that host Chris Wallace had "lost control very early on".

"It went on for 90 minutes and it was complete nonsense," Piers said. "If you didn't watch it I wouldn't bother it."

He continued: "Biden was a bit weak in standing up to Trump."

"I'm really glad I got out of bed at 3.30am," Piers sarcastically added. "Some real quality time!"

Later on Good Morning Britain, Piers clashed with Sebastian Gorka, who refused to condemn Trump's response to white supremacist group Proud Boys.

Sebastian insisted that he refused to "perform" for Piers after continually failing to answer the question before accusing the GMB host of "gotcha journalism".

However, Piers retorted that he was indeed there to perform for him.
