Even if it involves "cows" (which President Trump mentioned in the debate last night in his reference to the "Green New Deal").

Wallace was biased as hell and he only stopped the conflict when the President was bearing down hard on Biden.Just ran interference.
He was a disgrace, a foul mouthed wanna-be.
WALLACE: Gentlemen, a lot of people been waiting for this night, so let's get going. Our first subject is the Supreme Court. President Trump, you nominated Amy Coney Barrett over the weekend to succeed the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Court. You say the Constitution is clear about your obligation and the Senate's to consider a nominee to the Court. Vice President Biden, you say that this is an effort by the President and Republicans to jam through on an appointment in what you call an abuse of power. My first question to both of you tonight, why are you right in the argument you make and your opponent wrong? And where do you think a Justice Barrett would take the court? President Trump, in this first segment, you go first. Two minutes.TRUMP: Thank you very much, Chris. I will tell you very simply. We won the election. Elections have consequences. We have the Senate, we have the White House, and we have a phenomenal nominee respected by all. Top, top academic, good in every way. Good in every way. In fact, some of her biggest endorsers are very liberal people from Notre Dame and other places. So I think she's going to be fantastic. We have plenty of time. Even if we did it after the election itself. I have a lot of time after the election, as you know. So I think that she will be outstanding. She's going to be as good as anybody that has served on that court. We really feel that. We have a professor at Notre Dame, highly respected by all, said she's the single greatest student he's ever had. He's been a professor for a long time at a great school.
And we won the election and therefore we have the right to choose her, and very few people knowingly would say otherwise. And by the way, the Democrats, they wouldn't even think about not doing it. The only difference is they'd try and do it faster. There's no way they would give it up. They had Merrick Garland, but the problem is they didn't have the election so they were stopped. And probably that would happen in reverse, also. Definitely would happen in reverse. So we won the election and we have the right to do it, Chris.
WALLACE: President Trump, thank you. Same question to you, Vice President Biden. You have two minutes.
BIDEN: Well, first of all, thank you for doing this and looking forward to this, Mr. President.
TRUMP: Thank you, Joe.
BIDEN: The American people have a right to have a say in who the Supreme Court nominee is and that say occurs when they vote for United States Senators and when they vote for the President of United States. They're not going to get that chance now because we're in the middle of an election already. The election has already started. Tens of thousands of people already voted and so the thing that should happen is we should wait. We should wait and see what the outcome of this election is because that's the only way the American people get to express their view is by who they elect as President and who they elect as Vice President.
Now, what's at stake here is the President's made it clear, he wants to get rid of the Affordable Care Act. He's been running on that, he ran on that and he's been governing on that. He's in the Supreme Court right now trying to get rid of the Affordable Care Act, which will strip 20million people from having health insurance now, if it goes into court. And the justice, I'm not opposed to the justice, she seems like a very fine person. But she's written, before she went in the bench, which is her right, that she thinks that the Affordable Care Act is not Constitutional. The other thing that's on the court, and if it's struck down, what happens? Women's rights are fundamentally changed. Once again, a woman could pay more money because she has a pre-existing condition of pregnancy. They're able to charge women more for the same exact procedure a man gets.
And that ended when we, in fact, passed the Affordable Care Act, and there's a hundred million people who have pre-existing conditions and they'll be taken away as well. Those pre-existing conditions, insurance companies are going to love this. And so it's just not appropriate to do this before this election. If he wins the election and the Senate is Republican, then he goes forward. If not, we should wait until February.
TRUMP: There aren't a hundred million people with pre-existing conditions. As far as a say is concerned, the people already had their say. Okay, Justice Ginsburg said very powerfully, very strongly, at some point 10 years ago or so, she said a President and the Senate is elected for a period of time, but a President is elected for four years. We're not elected for three years. I'm not elected for three years. So we have the Senate, we have a President-
BIDEN: He's elected to the next election.
TRUMP: During that period of time, during that period of time, we have an opening. I'm not elected for three years. I'm elected for four years. Joe, the hundred million people is totally wrong. I don't know where you got that number. The bigger problem that you have is that you're going to extinguish 180million people with their private health care, that they're very happy with.
BIDEN: That's simply not true.
TRUMP: Well, you're certainly going to socialist. You're going to socialist medicine-
CHRIS WALLACE: Gentlemen, we're now into open discussion.
The bolded sections show that it was Joe Biden who began the interruptions, not President Trump. Trump returned the interruptions afterwards, but it was Biden who interrupted first.

Wallace puts his ego before what is good for the country.
How about Joe Rogan as the Moderator?
Shame on Wallace for his trickery at the debate. He will never live this down. He ruined the debate.
Hannity said wallace should have forced Biden to answer about stacking the court.
I noticed Wallass wasn’t on Fox and Friends this morning - if the producers thought he did a good job last night they would have had him on, grinning and lapping up all the compliments. But he wasnt, which says alot - I wonder if he appeared on any of the other shows today to take a bow?
Wallace will never moderate another debate ever.
“...think Trump was a meanie last night.“
The problem is they think that being a meanie is any kind of quality that matters in choosing a president. It isn’t. It isn’t in choosing a car mechanic, a house builder, A mortgage broker, a doctor or any kind of expert
As a suburban woman I gotta say geeze these women are dopes.
Besides trump is not a meanie. He loves this country and is mean to any threat. I call that the opposite of mean
Biden is mean. He deals with enemies of the state in an illegal way in order to have financial gain. That’s mean. There’s a word for it specifically.
Other than watching Tucker, done, done, DONE with FoxNews and FoxBusiness, period.
OANN and NewsMax.....for now and until they get ‘infected’....
This woman-and others like me-are sick and f’ing tired of seeing everyone cater to these weak sisters known as “suburban women” who apparently carry multiple strands of pearls to clutch at every shocking word, scold everyone they see not wearing a mask because they feel unsafe, and are only able to deal with men they can walk on a leash.
Maybe someone ought to worry about keeping our vote-rural women and others who don’t faint or whine-we do physical work, we grow and sell organic produce and free range livestock-we homeschool our kids, we don’t faint at an F bomb, we don’t scold others, we love our macho, blue collar working men-and we love pres Trump just the way he is-a street fighter who loves America-so cater to us-not the wimpy bitches...
Speak true dear sister!! Bravo
“Just my opinion, flame away if you want.”
Why would anyone flame you? You’re just another one in a long line of insufferable Monday morning quarterbacks.
Glad to see I’m not alone in my assessment-preach it, sister!
Thank you!
Apparently suburban women are only offended by Republican words and like it when Dems say the same thing about Repubs. They weren’t offended by Senile Joe calling Trump a clown just by Trump.
