The ABC debate moderators were debating on behalf of Harris

[toobfreak]

I skimmed the debate, but I noticed a couple/three times where the moderators interjected on behalf of Harris. One time was the guy moderator saying ABC called the Springfield Ohio city manager.

Since when do debate moderators perform the job of a debater? If Harris handlers thought Trump was going to discuss dog eating, then it's their job to research that and craft a rebuttal.

The moderator's job is not debating. The moderator's job is not intercession. The job of a debate moderator is to ask questions and guide the debate within the rules.

Too bad Trump didn't think to tell them that during the debate.

The CNN moderators actually caring enough to appear neutral apparently didn't sit well with the ABC moderators.

In case you haven't figured it out, CNN was told to let Joe die on the stage and not put any focus on Trump.

Too bad Trump didn't think to tell them that during the debate.

And debate the moderators? Really? You think that's how a debate should be run?

 

[BlindBoo]

THe issue is when they only "fact-check" one candidate and not the other.

How many whoppers did the VP pull from the bowels of the Internet (or Elon Muskrats ass)?

Trump should have just whipped out his .45 from his suit and plugged Muir in the chest when being fact-checked, yelling:

"YOU ARE TERMINATED! Next moderator!"

Damn right! You think they want to be tied to a bigly loser like Trump???

 

[Rambunctious]

ABC and those two idiot moderators are getting hammered...

 

[American Eagle]

Well, ABC invited Trump on their show, so yes.

 

[BlindBoo]

Why didn't they challenge Harris with her non-answer answers (especially the first question on the economy) or her misinformation / disinformation rehearsed lines she repeated?

She never lobbed a doozy like "Immigrants are eating our pets" bullshit. But if she had I'm sure there moderators would have pointed out that there is no credible evidence of that claim. Nor did pointing out the falsehood quell the rabid Neo-GOP's belief that they are......

Exactly. The moderators were debating Trump.

 

[American Eagle]

Yes. Trump could have quick the metrosexual mod to the quick.

 

[American Eagle]

Where in the rules for this debate does it say that moderators can't address false and abusive claims by a candidate, that they have to let a candidate abuse people with lies like Benedict Donald did?

They're are standard debate rules.

 

[BackAgain]

The firehose of falsehoods the dirty Don spreads was unheard of heretofore in American politics. Good for the moderators.

More horseshit ^ from the keyboard of DumbPoo.

Muir isn’t metrosexual. He is homosexual.

Monkey Bone flings his poop again. Go wash yer hands.

How many whoppers did the VP pull from the bowels of the Internet (or Elon Muskrats ass)?

At least 20.

20 Lies Harris Told last night at the debate

Here are 20 of her claims that are lies: 1. Trump supports and adopts Project 2025 (False: Trump has nothing to do with project 2025) 2. Trump would sign a National abortion ban (False: He has given the issue to the states, and has never stated he desires a national ban) 3. There are "Trump...

They were not moderators.

They were assholes posing as moderators.

She spoke disinformation .. fact .. and never answered questions. What was her response to the state of the economy and if it was better now?

 

[HikerGuy83]

Because Kamala is too STUPID to do a debate without moderator involvement.

She needs a service animal present for a 19 minute softball interview.....of course they don't think highly of her.

 

[hadit]

Claims are to be addressed by the other debater, not the moderator. If they are so "ridiculous," then the opposing debater should have no problem addressing them.

Especially when it's glaringly obvious they only check one candidate.
