Critics took to various social media platforms to express their discontent. The term \u2018repulsive\u2019 was frequently used, highlighting the negative reception towards the candidates\u2019 performances.

This perception of disingenuousness was exacerbated by what some described as a lack of substantive discussion on key issues.<\/p>\n
The social media backlash was swift and intense. Users voiced frustration over the perceived lack of genuine engagement from both candidates, with many feeling that the debate did little to address important policy matters. The term \u2018phony\u2019 was a recurring theme in the critiques, reflecting a widespread belief that the debate had become a spectacle rather than a meaningful dialogue.<\/p>\n
