Holt’s bias was obvious, but the impact was not inevitable. It mattered largely because, shockingly, Donald Trump was shocked that Holt was in the tank for Clinton. How could Trump not see that coming? And if he did, why wasn’t he better prepared?

Nothing else needs to be said here. Complaining about the bias of the moderator in a debate like this is the equivalent of complaining about the time the sun rose and set yesterday. The candidate -- and his campaign staff and supporters -- need to grow up and figure out how to deal with it.

I think that little shiver thing she did was when she peed in her diaper. My babies used to do that after they wet their diaper.

Trump was hardly shocked, he just pointed the cheating out to millions, who agree with him.

He’s NOT like the loser Repub “politicians” we are used to seeing who slink back into their safe spots after they are attacked by obvious bias.He fights back.It’s NOT called “complaining” in my world.

If you think that Trump is ever unprepared just look at his life.Think he got to where he is by being unprepared?

Plenty HAS to be said, you don’t set the parameters, and you can bet that his campaign staff is well aware of what has transpired.The second debate will be monumental.

“It sure looks like directed signals to me. Doing it once or even twice might be a coincidence, but 6 times?”

Not just 6 separate signals to Holt but those were the only times she scratched her face in that manner and it was ALWAYS followed by an interruption/response by Holt.

If it were truly an involuntary or random event one would expect no such response by Holt or that he might interrupt Trump before Illary scratched her nose/face.

Just the probability of all six occurrences happening randomly in that sequence are 1 out of 64 times. And that is without the probability of no other such random signals happening over a 90 minute debate period.

The probability of collusion here is extremely high.

As one of the commenters posted, at 5:53 Trump softly says “seizure” & nods to confirm it, as <~~~Reptilliary clearly shakes.

I doubt there is ever a disadvantage to having the media on your side.

I disagree in this special case. Since Trump's campaign is built around the idea that corrupt insiders (media and incumbents) control our government to our detriment, evidence that the media is collaborating with the insider candidate is a huge positive for Trump. Trump clearly lost the debate on points, but he just as clearly won on the narrative. The narrative is the reason why his poll number have risen since the debate.

No, there have never been legendary reporters. These people don’t MAKE history; they only tell it. And for decades now, since the Murrows and Cronkites and Woodwards and Bernsteins became players instead of observers, they don’t even tell the story as often as they tell lies about it.

I have more respect for a bus station hooker than any reporter on earth.

Kgun channel 9 Tucson featured CNN poll like it was the only one. Not a whisper about 20 or more polls showing Trump winning.

I stand corrected! Must have been thinking about David Duke. Not that HE really matters, either.
