Are you kidding me? Debates are started normally by drawing a pro and con position on the issues. These are not debates. These are glorified press conferences. You are naive to believe otherwise. Prepping Republican candidates for the Candy Crowleys and other moderators during the general debates is not a bad thing. I have watched a lot of Trump interviews and he is not exactly a model of decorum when being asked questions. Bret's concerns are legitimate. If other candidates are held to one standard and he is not where is the fairness.
The fairness is over at Obama's unicorn dude ranch.
This is reality...reality ain't fair.
We’re both aware these are not debates. None the less if you’re going to be taking a supposedly impartial position as a moderator, it is unethical to single out a candidate before an event.
