NBC News anchors, correspondents and analysts look at important moments in the final debate between President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden.

ONE WE HEARD IN THE LAST DEBATE. A LITTLE MORE COMBATIVE. TALKING OVER. CERTAINLY A LOT MORE RESTRAINED THAN WE SAW. >> YEAH. AND WE HAD A REAL DEBATE. THERE WAS SUBSTANCE DISCUSSED, POLICIES DISCUSSED, BACK AND FORTH. THERE WASN'T THAT, IT DIDN'T DEVOLVE INTO DEEPLY PERSONAL AREAS. AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE GOT A REAL LOOK AT WHAT THE CHOICE IS BEFORE THEM. >> AND THE QUESTION IS, DID EACH OF THEM COULD WHAT THEY NEEDED TO DO UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES 12 DAYS OUT FROM THE ELECTION. LET'S TO GO CHUCK TODD WHO HAS BEEN WATCHING. CHUCK, RIGHT AT THE TOP. WHAT STOOD OUT? >> WELL, FIRST OF ALL, THE MUTED MICS THING TURNED OUT TO BE A GOOD IDEA. I'LL BE HONEST, I WAS A BIT SKEPTICAL BUT I THINK IT WAS A GOOD IDEA. A SHOUT OUT TO OUR COLLEAGUE, KRISTEN WELKER. IT HELPED FACILITATE. AT THE END OF THE DAY, I DO THINK VIEWERS GOT THE MEASURE OF BOTH THESE MEN. I THINK THIS DEBATE DISTILLED WHO THEY ARE. I THINK IN MANY WAYS, IF YOU'VE BEEN FOLLOWING THIS CAMPAIGN CLOSELY, YOU PROBABLY DID NOT LEARN A LOT. BUT COMPARED TO WHAT WE SAW IN THAT FIRST DEBATE, I THINK THERE'S ALMOST A SIGH OF RELIEF THAT WE AT LEAST GOT AN IDEA OF WHAT EACH MIGHT DO. THE THING THAT STRUCK ME THE MOST THOUGH ABOUT THIS DEBATE WAS HOW MUCH THE PRESIDENT TOOK HIS DEFENSIVENESS AND TRIED TO ACT LIKE A CHALLENGER CANDIDATE. HE DIDN'T REALLY TALK ABOUT WHAT HE WOULD DO IN A SECOND TERM. HE WOULD NOT TALK ABOUT DEFENDING, HE WOULD DEFEND SOME OF THE ATTACKS ON HIMSELF. HE KEPT TRYING, IN SOME WAYS, HE WAS TRYING TO MAKE JOE BIDEN THE INCUMBENT. HE'S BEEN TRYING TO RE-CREATE HIS 2018 MOJO. THE QUESTION I HAVE IS, HE WAS A TRYING TO DEFLECT ANSWERS ON HEALTH CARE, DEFLECT ANSWERS ON COVID, DEFLECT ANSWERS ON THE ECONOMY. FOLKS WATCHING THAT GOING, WAIT A MINUTE. WHO HAS BEEN THE PRESIDENT THE LAST FOUR YEARS? YOU OR THAT OTHER GUY? THAT'S THE QUESTION I HAVE. I THINK DONALD TRUMP STOPPED THE BLEEDING TONIGHT AND THAT WAS AN IMPORTANT MOMENT TONIGHT. >> IT WAS PRESIDENT ABLE TO PUMP SOME AIR INTO THE OCTOBER SURPRISE THAT HE'S BEEN WORKING? THE EMAILS? THE HUNTER BIDEN STUFF. HE KEPT BRINGING IT UP. >> I THOUGHT WHEN HE WOULD TALK ABOUT CERTAIN THINGS, THAT ISSUE AND A COUPLE OTHER THINGS, I FELT LIKE HE WAS SPEAKING THE LANGUAGE OF FOX PRIME TIME. IF YOU WATCH A LOT OF FOX PRIME TIME, YOU UNDERSTOOD WHAT HE WAS SAYING. IF YOU DON'T, YOU HAVE NO IDEA. I'LL BE HONEST WITH YOU. PEOPLE SAID, WHAT IS THAT? I DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS. AND I SIMPLY SAID, WELL, YOU DON'T SPEAK THAT LANGUAGE. AND I DO THINK THAT WAS PART OF PRESIDENT'S PROBLEM. HE DID SPEAK TO FOLKS WHO ALREADY UNDERSTAND WHAT HE'S SAYING. DID HE ACTUALLY TALK TO ANYBODY VACILLATING IN THE MIDDLE? DID HE MAKE A PITCH TO BRING THEM BACK TO HIM? I DID NOT HEAR THAT KIND OF PITCH. WHEN HE WENT AFTER THE HUNTER BIDEN STUFF, IF YOU DIDN'T FOLLOW IT CLOSELY, YOU PROBABLY DON'T QUITE UNDERSTAND WHAT THE HIT IS. >> LET ME BRING IN ANDREA MITCHELL. IT IS SUBURBAN WOMEN ARE THE VOTERS TO GET. THEY'RE ONES WHO WILL DECIDE THE ELECTION. THERE WAS A MUCH CRISPER PRESENTATION FROM BOTH CANDIDATES TONIGHT, ACTUALLY. AND I'LL ECHO CHUCK TODD. DO YOU THINK THAT THOSE SWING VOTERS WILL TAKE AWAY ANYTHING TONIGHT THAT COULD POSSIBLY HELP THEM CHANGE THEIR MINDS? >> I DO. FIRST THEY SAW A REAL DEBATE. A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF WORK THAT WENT INTO IT AND THE COMMAND SHE ASSERTED. SHE GOT THEM TO DEBATE WITH EACH OTHER. YOU HEARD A CONTRAST. BY MY COUNT ON RACE, THE ENVIRONMENT, ON MINIMUM WAGE, ON IMMIGRATION, SEPARATING CHILDREN, JUST THE FACTS ARE VERY MUCH MORE SO WITH JOE BIDEN THAN DONALD TRUMP. AND I THINK THAT THE CALLOUS ASPECTS OF SEPARATION OF CHILDREN. THESE ARE THE ISSUES, ON COVID, THAT I THINK, I WAS IN PENNSYLVANIA YESTERDAY TALKING TO PEOPLE AND IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT IS KEY PROBLEM THAT HE IS HAVING. LOSING THE SUPPORT OF SUBURBAN WOMEN AND THE PRESIDENT, OF COURSE, IS HOPING THAT HE CAN GAIN THEM BACK OR HAVE ENOUGH VOTERS IN RURAL AREAS, OTHER VOTERS, OTHER WHITE MEN, AND BRINGING THEM BACK INTO THE FOLD. I THINK IN THIS DEBATE, THE CARE AND EMPATHY THAT JOE BIDEN SHOWED. AND IT WAS THE BEST DEBATE I'VE EVER SEEN JOE BIDEN DO. I THINK THAT HE ROSE TO THE CHALLENGE. HE DIDN'T GET RATTLED. AND I AGREE WITH TRUMP. THE INTRICACIES OF THESE ALLEGATIONS WHICH HAVE NOT BEEN PROVED WILL ESCAPE A LOT OF PEOPLE EXCEPT THROUGH ECHO CHAMBER. THEY HAVE A VERY BIG MEGA PHONE AND THEY DO HAVE FOX AND THEIR WHOLE MEDIA OPERATION WHO WILL KEEP AMPLIFYING IT. I THINK THE THINGS PEOPLE REALLY CARE ABOUT. THEY ARE GOING TO HEAR THIS DEBATE AND HEAR JOE BIDEN ON. >> LET'S TURN TO DAVID PLOUFFE. HE SERVED AS SENIOR ADVISER TO THE PRESIDENT. AS HE BIDEN SPORT AS WELL. WHAT STOOD OUT TONIGHT. DOES THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN HAVE SOMETHING NEW TO WORRY ABOUT TONIGHT? >> I DON'T THINK THEY HAVE ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. I AGREE WITH CHUCK. MAYBE THERE IS NO MORE PLEADING ON THE SIDE. MY SUSPICION IS THEY DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING THAT SAID, SIGN ME UP FOR ANOTHER FOUR YEARS. I THOUGHT THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF DEBATE WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE DEBATE WHICH IS THE ISSUE ON MOST PEOPLE'S MINDS, COVID. DONALD TRUMP WAS THE MOST PASSIONATE WHEN HE WAS ATTACKING JOE BIDEN'S FAMILY. NOT WHEN HE WAS TALKING ABOUT COVID, HEALTH CARE, KIDS SEPARATED FROM THEIR FAMILIES. SO AT THE END OF THE DAY IN A RACE THAT YOU'RE LEADING, AT THE BARE MINIMUM YOU WANT TO LEAVE IT FEELING LIKE YOU DIDN'T ERODE ANY SUPPORT. I DON'T THINK JOE BIDEN DID THAT. I AGREE WITH CHUCK. I THINK PART OF DONALD TRUMP'S APPROXIMATE FOR HIS ENTIRE PRESIDENCY, HE'S LIVING IN THIS FOX ALTERNATIVE VERSION OF REALITY WHICH THERE IS A LOT OF INTENSITY THERE BUT THAT'S AT MOST 30% OF THE COUNTRY. LAST TIME I CHECKED, HE NEEDS 50% OF THE VOTE TO WIN. >> WE BRING IN, A TRUMP SUPPORTER, I WANT TO HEAR WHAT YOU THOUGHT ABOUT TONIGHT'S DEBATE. IT WAS A DIFFERENT TRUMP. TO SAY IT WAS BETTER THAN THE FIRST DEBATE IS MAYBE SETTING THE BAR A LITTLE TOO LOW BUT DID YOU FIND YOURSELF WISHING YOU HAD SEEN MORE OF THIS VERSION OF PRESIDENT TRUMP ALONG THE WAY? >> I ALSO WISH I HAD SEEN IT YESTERDAY. I WISH I HAD SEEN MORE OF THIS VERSION OF JOE BIDEN AT THE END. I WILL TRANSITION AWAY FROM THE OIL INDUSTRY. THE SLEEPER MOMENT CAME AT THE END WHEN JOE BIDEN ANNOUNCED THE SHUTTING DOWN OF AMERICA'S OIL INDUSTRY AND THAT I BELIEVE WILL BE THE SOUND BITE THAT WILL TRAVEL. HE HAD TO TALK TO PENNSYLVANIA, THE PRESIDENT DID, HE TALKED TO PENNSYLVANIA REPEATEDLY ABOUT FRACKING AND WE'LL SEE SOME FACT CHECKS ON THE VICE PRESIDENT'S RECORD ON FRACKING. THE OIL INDUSTRY, THE RETURN TO THE PARIS ACCORDS. THAT WAS AN UNFORCED ERROR BY JOE BIDEN AND I THINK IT WILL RESONATE WITH A LOT OF MIDDLE AMERICANS BEING EXTREME. I THOUGHT THE PRESIDENT WAS VERY EFFECTIVE WHEN HE SPOKE DIRECTLY TO THE BLACK COMMUNITY. BY THE WAY, OUR COLLEAGUE KRISTEN WELKER DID VERY WELL MAINTAINING THE PACE. SHE HE RAN A MARVELOUS SHIP AND THAT'S A DIFFICULT THING TO DO. AND I DO BELIEVE HE MADE SOME GROUND WITH THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY AND THAT JOE BIDEN GOT TRIPPED UP BY KRISTEN ON THE SUPER PREDATOR STUFF. FINALLY, ALTHOUGH I WAS LISTENING FOR THE LAPTOP AND I HEARD THE VICE PRESIDENT OPEN THE DOOR TO AN EXAMINATION ABOUT IT, IT DID NOT DOMINATE THE WAY I THOUGHT IT WOULD. THIS WAS A VERY SOLID SUBSTANTIVE DEBATE. VERY FEW PEOPLE CHANGED THEIR MINDS BUT ALL OF THEM HAD THEIR BIAS CONFIRMATION FED ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. >> WE WILL TAKE A QUICK BREAK AND BE BACK MORE REACTION TO TONIGHT'S DEBATE AND WHAT IT MEANS AS JOE BIDEN AND DONALD TRUMP RACE TO THE FINISH LINE. >>> WE'RE BACK WITH OUR FINAL COVERAGE OF THE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. WE BRING IN HALLIE JACKSON. GIVE AS YOU SENSE OF WHAT IT WAS LIKE, THE MOOD INSIDE THE ROOM. >> IT FELT VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE FIRST AND PREVIOUS DEBATE IN CLEVELAND WHEN THE AIR ALMOST CRACKLED WITH THE TENSION AS PRESIDENT TRUMP REPEATEDLY OBVIOUSLY INTERRUPTED JOE BIDEN. IT FELT UNCOMFORTABLE IN THE ROOM. THERE WAS NOT ANY OF THAT HERE TONIGHT BASED ON OUR VANTAGE POINT IN THE AUDIENCE. YOU COULD SEE PEOPLE FILE OUT AS THE PEOPLE ARE LEAVING. BOTH CANDIDATES BECAUSE OF THE RULE ENFORCEMENTS, THE MUTING OF THE MICROPHONES, AND THERE WAS NEVER A MUTE BUTTON. IT IS NOT AS IF SOMEONE WAS PRESSING A BUTTON TO MUTE AT WILL. IT WAS THE FIRST TWO SEGMENT WHEN THEY HAD THE UNDER INTERRUPTED TIME, AS KRISTEN POINTED OUT. SO YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO HEAR THE CANDIDATES SPEAK. THERE ARE SOME ISSUES ALREADY THAT I THINK WILL BE DRIVING SOME OF THE DISCUSSION OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. SPECIFICALLY ON POLICY WHICH IS WHAT THESE DEBATES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT, AND SUPPOSED TO BE FOCUSING ON ANYWAY. FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP I THINK THERE WILL BE QUESTIONS ABOUT HIS IMMIGRATION STANCE WHEN IT COPS TO THE MIGRANT CHILDREN SEPARATED FROM THEIR PARENTS. THE PRESIDENT SAID THEY ARE WORKING A PLAN BUT HE REVEALED NO SPECIFICS OF IT. FOR BIDEN THERE WILL BE SOME QUESTIONS PERHAPS ON HEALTH CARE AND WHAT HE DESCRIBES AS BIDEN CARE AND THE PUBLIC OPTION. AND THAT IS SOMETHING YOU MAY HEAR REPUBLICANS AND HIS CRITICS SEIZE ON AS WELL OF BIDEN, HIS ALLIES AND ADVISERS ARE TALKING ABOUT CAME EARLY IN THE NIGHT ON THE CORONAVIRUS ISSUE. PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID THAT WE ARE LEARNING TO LIVE WITH THE PANDEMIC. LEARNING TO LIVE WITH THE VIRUS. AND BIDEN FORCEFULLY RESPONDED IN FACT, PEOPLE ARE LEARNING TO DIE FROM IT. AND LEARNING TO LIVE WITH THE DEATHS OF LOVED ONES. PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR HIS PART, YOU HEARD HUGH HEWITT TALK ABOUT IT. THE MOMENT ON THE OIL INDUSTRY IS SOMETHING THAT YOU'LL BE HEARING A LOT ABOUT OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. I CAN TELL YOU BASED ON A CONVERSATION WE JUST HAD WITH A SENIOR ADVISER TO THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN, THEY ARE THRILLED WITH THE PRESIDENT'S PERFORMANCE. THEY FELT LIKE HE DREW A CONTRAST AS A CAREER POLITICIAN. LESTER? >> THANKS. >> LET'S BRING IN NBC POLITICAL ANALYST CLAIRE McCASKILL, I KNOW WHAT THE EDITOR OF THE NATIONAL REVIEW. LET ME START WITH YOU, SENATOR McCASKILL. I THINK THE CONSENSE US IS BOTH CANDIDATES HAD A GOOD NIGHT. DO YOU THINK IT TIGHTENS UP THE RACE? >> I DON'T KNOW. I'M NOT SURE IT CHANGES THE RACE MUCH. TRUE. TRUMP WAS NOT A TRAIN WRECK BUT HE STILL LIED A LOT. HE MADE UP A LOT OF STUFF. AND THAT WILL CONTINUE TO COME OUT. AND THE ONE THING JOE BIDEN DID, TRUMP HAS REALLY NEVER LEARNED HOW TO REACH OUT TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T LOVE HIM. BIDEN CONTINUALLY MADE IT ABOUT AMERICA'S FAMILIES. AND MADE IT ABOUT AMERICA INSTEAD OF RED STATES AND BLUE STATES. EVERY TIME TRUMP TRIED TO SAY, THAT'S A DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR OR A DEMOCRATIC STATE. BIDEN WOULD BRING IT BACK AND SAY THIS IS ONE COUNTRY WEST NEED A PRESIDENT WHO WILL TRY TO REPRESENT EVERYBODY AND UNITE EVERYBODY. AND I THINK THAT SPEAKS TO THOSE WOMEN IN THE SUBURBS MUCH MORE STRONGLY THAN SOME OF TRUMP'S TIKE JOE BIDEN'S FAMILY. >> WHAT ABOUT THE ISSUE OF THE OIL INDUSTRY? THIS CAMPAIGN SOME THINK WILL BE DECIDE IN THE PLACES LIKE PENNSYLVANIA, THE INDUSTRIAL MIDWEST. WAS THAT A MAJOR ERROR ON THE PART OF JOE BIDEN? >> WELL, HE IS IN TRANSITION. I THINK ANYBODY WHO HAS STUDIED CLIMATE KNOWS THIS IS SOMETHING THE PLANET WILL HAVE TO DO. AND I THINK HE WAS VERY CLEAR ABOUT FRACKING. HE BELIEVES WE CAN CAPTURE THE EMISSIONS AND FRACKING CAN CONTINUE. IT IS IMPORTANT IN PENNSYLVANIA. BUT JOE BIDEN, IT WAS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF JOE BIDEN BEING HONEST WHICH IS JUST NOT IN TRUMP'S REPPER OR THE. >> AND WHAT DO YOU THINK? WILL THIS TILT THE NUMBERS ONE WAY OR THE OTHER? >> PROBABLY NOT RADICALLY. TRUMP OBVIOUSLY MUCH BETTER THAN THE FIRST DEBATE. MAYBE A REASON FOR SOME REPUBLICANS DOUBTS ABOUT HIM TO COME HOME. I THINK HE HAMMERED THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT THAT JOE BIDEN HAS BEEN IN WASHINGTON FOREVER. ALL TALK AND NO ACTION. BUT BIDEN MOST OF THE NIGHT WAS PRETTY SHARP AND PRETTY POINTED. MAYBE A LITTLE OVERLY CANNED BUT I THINK TOWARD THE END, HE BEGAN TO FADE. HE LOOKED A LITTLE TIRED. AND THEN DID GIVE THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN A GIFT THAT YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR A LOT ABOUT IN THE COMING DAYS SAYING HE WILL PHASE OUT THE OIL INDUSTRY. WHICH MAY BE IN HIS WRITTEN PLAN BUT IS ENTIRELY HEARING IT FROM HIS OWN MOUTH IN FRONT OF TENS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE. >> SINCE I ASKED SENATOR McCASKILL ABOUT THAT, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT SUBURBAN WOMEN BEING KEY IN THIS RACE, THE MOMENT WHEN THE PRESIDENT WAS ASKED ABOUT THE SEPARATION POLICY AND THE 500 CHILDREN, THEIR PARENTS CAN'T BE FOUND BY THE GOVERNMENT, THE PRESIDENT SAID, WELL, THEY ARE VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF. WILL THAT COME BACK TO BITE HIM? >> IT IS ONE. ISSUES TOGETHER WITH COVID, WITH HEALTH CARE, THAT HE IS JUST INHERENTLY ON DEFENSE ON. THERE IS NOT A GOOD EXPLANATION. NOW I THINK THE REST OF THE IMMIGRATION DISCUSSION, HE DISCOVERED SOME POINTS. HE'S RIGHT ABOUT CATCH AND RELEASE. PEOPLE COME IN THE COUNTRY. THEY SAY THEY'LL SHOW UP FOR PROCEEDINGS SUBSEQUENTLY AND THEY MIGHT SHOW UP TOER SOME PROCEEDINGS BUT ALMOST NONE OF THEM SHOW UP FOR THE DEPORTATION PROCEEDINGS, TO GET ON A BUS OR PLANE TO BE SENT HOME. NO ONE IS THAT FOOLISH. SO THAT HAS BEEN A SUCCESSFUL >> BUENO, CON ESO CONCLUIMOS LA >> YEAH. THAT'S THE ROOM WHERE IT HAPPENED. THE FINAL DEBATE OF THE 2020 CAMPAIGN. NOW THE RACE IS ON TO ELECTION DAY. SOME THE ELECTION JUST 12 DAYS AWAY. A SPRINT TO THE FINISH FOR BOTH CANDIDATES. >> WE'LL HAVE A LOT MORE BRIGHT AND EARLY TOMORROW MORNING ON THE "TODAY" SHOW ON NBC AND NBC NEWS.COM. AND THIS IS MY FAVORITE SHOW, NBC "NIGHTLY NEWS" WITH LESTER HOLT. >> NOT BRIGHT AND EARLY. FOR ALL OF US HERE AT NBC NEWS, THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.
