A central Illinois Congressman was disappointed watching last week's presidential debate between President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden.

Congressman Darin LaHood wishes the President would have spoken more to the successes of his first four years in office rather than turn the event into a shouting and arguing match. 

Many were disappointed in the President's remarks regarding denouncing racism. The Dunlap Republican assures everyone the President is not a racist and points out he has repeatedly condemned racism and all its supporters. 

Congressman LaHood says the President's brash and abrasive style has been the way he operates since he announced his candidacy in 2015 and says that will be something he has to run on. Still, he hopes the President will take the approach of talking about the things he's done in the last four years.
