Tuesday's first presidential debate was "a trainwreck," former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer told "Hannity."

"Sean, I've got to say, we're not electing gladiators and this shouldn't be a food fight," Fleischer told host Sean Hannity. "I think this was a trainwreck tonight [for] both candidates.

"I just think when you come to a debate, you should air the differences, occasionally interrupt, get the extra point in, poke your opponent, but this was way over the top tonight by both candidates," Fleischer went on, pointing out that while Trump "started it, Joe Biden returned the fire" by describing the president variously as a "clown," a "liar," and a "racist."
