“This telegraphed that he was non-viable and effectively froze him out of support. At least that’s the way I see it.”
Me too, our news media and the press are controlling who gets into the primaries. People are not given equal publicity, equal treatment, because heck, they are unknown, and why publicise an unknown?
It’s my take that they gave him few questions because he hasn’t gained support. But how can you gain support if you’re not asked questions?
There will be a push to eliminate the lower tier candidates. It had already started before this debate. It’s my take that they thought they were doing Hunter a favor by even letting him appear. Reducing the questions seemed reasonable to them.
I disagree, but then that’s my opinion.
