U.S. President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden met for the second and last time on a debate stage Thursday after a previously scheduled town hall debate was scrapped after the Republican incumbent became one of the millions of Americans to contract coronavirus.

After a first debate defined by angry interruptions, Thursday's event featured a mostly milder tone. And in a campaign defined by ugly personal attacks, the night featured a surprising amount of substantive policy debate as the two broke sharply on the environment, foreign policy, immigration and racial justice.

For Trump, the matchup at Tennessee’s Belmont University was perhaps the final opportunity to change the dynamics of a race dominated, much to his chagrin, by his response to the coronavirus pandemic and its economic fallout.

For Biden, it was 90 minutes to solidify an apparent lead less than two weeks before the election.

Jackson Proskow has more on key takeaways from Thursday night.
