Holt regularly interrupted and contradicted Trump. He also set up Trump for scripted Clinton attacks.
Hillary did not get a single question about her server, her emails, the Clinton foundation or her many foreign policy failures. Trump was continually asked hostile questions.
Despite all this Trump did well.
Trump came off as honest and genuine. He understood the problems with the economy. Clinton came off as scripted and phony. Clinton seemed like she was reciting memorized talking points with no relation to her record.
Trump came off as genuine, a real person. Clinton came off as scripted and robotic.
Trump won.
“Lester Holt and Hillary Clinton tag teamed Trump in the first debate. It appeared that Clinton had the questions in advance and gave memorized scripted responses to questions.

Comment of the day!
They should have two moderators. Each candidate gets to choose one who then directs questions to the opponent.
You would have had a much different debate if Michelle Malkin was the Mod. She knows her subjects and ask tough questions.
Lester Holt — Clinton House Boy.
Well said.
I agree. Letting lefties control all the debates is insanity. If I were the nominee I’d take the position that if the moderators were not true neutrals, then there would be no debates.
I love this idea. The more they can be marginalized, the better for America.
AMEN, YES! Why do we allow these PUKES to moderate these debates?
Would an intelligent, non partisan, non media questioner ask Trump about the “birther issue”?
NO! It isn’t an issue the American people care about. We lost this issue a long time ago. What difference, at this point, does it make?
There NEVER was a Presidential debate without the MSM.
Television STARTED the Presidential debates.
The Presidential debates have never been anything more than a TV show.
