Body Language expert Mark Bowden noted that the stage manager of the CNN presidential debate messed up by keeping Joe Biden's podium light dark until after he reached the podium and then turned it on while correctly turning on Donald Trump's podium light before he reached it. But was this really just an error? Almost everybody was surprised about how fair the two Trump-hating CNN moderators were towards Trump. Of course, this wasn't so much a sudden embrace of the MAGA movement by the moderators as an effort by CNN (a Deep State media outlet) to get Biden to drop out early from the race. We saw that especially after the debate when CNN's John King immediately declared that his phone was blowing up with calls from panicked Democrats demanding that Joe Biden quit the campaign.
Could the strange episode with the podium light have also been part of the CNN effort to derail Biden? It is known that flashing lights can adversely affect some people with existing neurological disorders. And from Biden's subsequent performance following the light flash, one could say he was adversely affected. Whether or not Biden's pathetic performance was caused by the light is an open question but CNN sure didn't help matters at least with Biden's appearance by that sudden change in lighting.
PING!
Joe just a shadow of a man... kinda like Randall Flagg.
CNN knew they couldn’t repeat 2020 with Biden. Trump is better for business.

I say accident.
The set director wasn’t ready. Fire them. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
If Trump had been first, they would have missed the cue for the light, and everyone on conservative media would have been complaining about evil CNN trying to dis’ the orange man. As it was, it happened to Biden, so the conspiracy theorists on the left got a bone to chew on for a while.

The broadcasting industry plans everything out to the nth degree. It was no accident.
I just caught snippets afterwards and was unaware of this issue at the start of the debate. Thanks for telling us, PJ.
That means the powers that be knew Biden was going to implode. Decisions were made. But Jill doesn’t want to play ball. I sure hope Biden has a food taster.
as IF he needed help...
Biden would have had a stellar night and would have really thrashed Trump all night long. But the lighting guy foiled him. That’s the ticket.
Randall Flagg was no man, shadow or otherwise...just sayin..
It should have been red.
Anyone remember the mysterious light on HRC’s podium where her handler went immediately up to her podium at the end of the debate and removed some electronics?
Of course, much has been scrubbed but here is an article on it:

He had a cold. He was suffering from jet lag. Donald Trump was shouting at him. He ran out of gas. He... he had a flat tire. He didn't have enough money for cab fare. His tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole his car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts! IT WASN'T HIS FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!
Nothing the left does is an accident. It is all calculated.
We may not know the reason, but there certainly is one.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Clever
Brandon likes that dark look with the flame Red background.
I seriously doubt CNN would deliberately do anything to hurt Biden. See Tagline.
I remember the worst of the mumbling, bumbling, stuttering answer from Biden and CNN seemed to end his time early to “stop the bleeding” and called on Trump.
The whole thing was a set-piece from the get-go. I suspected they would try every trick in the book to make it a “horse race” so they could sell copy (in dinosaur media terms).
And how it worked! Already they are backtracking so Bi-dump will gain. Back-and-forth until the dreaded “OCTOBER SURPRISE.” What a crock! They do this every four years like clockwork. And the sole purpose is to keep funding their worthless (electronic) rags.
