Report: Lester Holt May Pull a Candy Crowley at First Presidential Debate
breitbart.com ^ | 25 Sep 2016

CNN’s Brian Stelter says Lester Holt is signaling to his NBC colleagues that he may enter the fray in Monday night’s presidential debate as a participant rather than a moderator — thanks to intense left-wing backlash over Matt Lauer’s performance at the “Commander in Chief Forum” weeks ago.

So the media admits they’re a de facto Trump opponent.

It won’t be the first time Trump not only debated with his actual opponent but then the so called, “Moderator” start debating Trump as if he’s running for election too.

It’s the pinnacle of corrupt bias.

I, for one, am looking forward to his trying to pull a Candy Crowley at First Presidential Debate! Donald Trump is not Mitt Romney! Lester might have to hold his guts, figuratively speaking, for the rest of the show to keep them from spilling out on the floor. ;-)

I have this feeling that Trump would react differently from Romney, if they were to pull such a stunt.

All that would do is to pen up for a “reaganesque” moment for Trump.

(Or “romneyesque” but I don’t think that is remotely possible.)

The asshats don't even try to hide it anymore.

If Lester the Molester does try something stupid, Trump will slap him down so fast it’ll make his head swim. He doesn’t take crap from the media. He’ll be ready for whatever they throw at him. He handled Megyn like a boss.

Hopefully Holt won’t bleed out of his wherever.

Trump is well aware that the media is his enemy. He’ll turn the table on them if they try it.

Go ahead Lester Trump will treat you like another combative, and he won’t stand there like a gobsmacked mute Romney.

Yep, how bad is it when the freaking moderator has to help Clinton, a woman who’s had recent issues collapsing.

We’ll call the moderator, ‘Clinton’s co-candidate’.

This system is rigged from top to bottom.

win or lose, Trump has exposed the media to the rest of the country for the politically corrupt shills that they are. Their ‘approval” ratings are right down there with Congress’

She was probably afraid to wear her earpiece after all the hub bub, so they got the moderator to help her from getting totally annihilated.

Yes it is. I just wonder why Trump agrees to let these political hacks moderate the debate? Maybe he has something up his sleeve, with which to beat proverbial knobs on his head.

Lester will wish he were a potted plant, if all he gets is long seconds of dead air when he attempts to insert himself into the debate.

Fact checking has no role in any political debate.

Only an idiot would suggest it, and only an imbecile would attempt it.

Approval ratings mean spit if they can continue business as usual. Congress and the media haven’t changed. In fact, they’ve gotten worse during Obama’s reign of terror.
