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.

I wonder who played Trump when hillary was practicing.

Probably Mitt Romney. :-P

Maybe they should just have James Comey and Cheryl Mills co-moderate. That would be about as fair.

No one. They couldn’t find any straight men among the Democrats or any men with testicles among the Reps.

he should say something like, “Are you the moderator or are you here to protect and promote Hillary?”

-- I have been saying all along that the so-called "debate" is nothing more than a media circus. --

It's many things. Shoe polish, desert topping, and an opportunity for Trump to contrast himself with Crooked.

What the press does with it is largely irrelevant. The people will judge the event independently. It is known ahead of time the press will claim Crooked was the winner. They claimed that about the Lauer "Forum" event. The public isn't buying the press opinions anymore.

1. That photo of Candy Crowley is so Photoshopped that she looks like a different person than the fat sleaze she really is.

2. Since "fact checking" is all the rage in our slimeball media, how about they "fact check" the truth about the so-called Commission on Presidential Debates. It started out and has remained nothing but a means for the establishment politicians and media to grab control of presidential debates. They get to decide who can and cannot debate, what the rules are, who the "moderators" are (elite journos, of course), what the topics will be, etc. It's all elitist bull crap, and that's putting it mildly.

I’m reading this as “Lester will ‘fact-check’ Trump constantly”. Fact-check to a democrats is “It’s not factually correct because I disagree with you”.

Lester Holt is black (of Jamaican descent) so his career is safe...if he pulls a Candy Crowley and Trump calls him on it, tomorrow’s MSM story will be about how Trump is a racist.

Oh my, Trump will have to discipline the first woman pres candidate and the first afro debate moderator. Nice set up. Headlines:”Misogynistic racist Trump defends himself!”

Trump should start calling Lester “Candy” from the moment he hits the stage.

“Isn’t it just insanity that they want TRUMP fact checked.”

And wanted Trump to sign the pledge.

It backfires on them when it comes to Trump!

ANYONE who doesn't expect this from Lester, The Molester, is sadly naive.
