The next Republican debate will be moderated by Dana Perino of FOX News, Stuart Varney of FOX Business, and Ilia Calderon of Univision.
During one of the 2020 debates between Trump and Biden, Calderon said that Trump ’empowers white supremacists.’
Trump is probably not going to be at this debate, but he is the front-runner for the GOP nomination. Do you think Calderon can possibly be fair moderating a Republican debate?
.... Snip.....
Breitbart News reports:
Second GOP Debate Co-Moderator Ilia Calderón Accused Trump of ‘Racist’ Rhetoric: He ‘Empowers White Supremacists’
Univision’s Ilia Calderón, who will co-moderate the second Republican presidential debate, is a staunch critic of former President Donald Trump, having accused him of empowering white supremacists and “racist” rhetoric in the past.
Fox News and Univision announced that Calderón, along with Fox News’s Dana Perino and Fox Business Network’s Stuart Varney, will moderate the September 27 debate at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California.
After the first 2020 presidential debate on September 19, 2020, Calderon joined others in accusing Trump of not condemning white supremacists when moderator Chris Wallace asked if Trump would condemn them and militia groups and say that “they need to stand down.”
While Trump said “sure,” he caught criticism for stating, “Proud Boys, stand back and stand by,” as Breitbart News Senior Editor Joel Pollak pointed out in a fact check at the time. “Wallace is the one who introduced the “stand down” language — not Trump, who was doing what he was asked,” Pollak emphasized:
“A dangerous moment of the debate,” Calderón tweeted afterward. “Trump not only does not condemn but empowers white supremacists.”

Yep, Trump is right to stay away for this farce.
This is no debate.
I keep hearing about Trump’s racist rhetoric and his racism but never see any examples…
F them every one of them including Ronna none us wanted her but we don’t matter
Being against a liberal is racist.
I’ve never seen a Democrat primary debate with a conservative moderator.
Neither has anyone else and nobody EVER shall see that; sadly.
Funny thing is they will probably spend a lot of time discussing him directly and/or indirectly.
Especially Asia Hutchinson and Humpty Dumpty Chris Christie.
.
Dana Perino’s not much better.
Maybe Trump should have the guts to go out and face a hostile audience.
A friggin’ American hating Mexican from Univision is now getting involved in American politics? Embrace the suck. No wonder nobody is watching that crap on FOX. FNC is just another DNC tentacle.
Trump won’t be there anyway.
He does have the guts but why when you’re so far ahead in the polls over the other worthless candidates?
Nobody hates Trump as much as Bushie Parino.
Or a Presidential debate with a Conservative moderator.
He faces a hostile audience every day of his life fighting for your ability to hate him.
She loves stabbing Trump in the back, still puzzled why he supported and endorsed her. Same questions goes back to why he supported Mittens Romeny
