Regarding Washington Compost's Callum Borchers spin that Lester Holt is actually a registered Republican. Nothing ticks me more off than being taking for stupid and ignorant by the rats. Don't allow them to do it to you too.

What matters is whether Trump has learned his lesson and does some debate prep next time....

Lester Holt confirmed for millions of Americans the media will do anything to elect their favored candidate.

MSM still doesn’t get why Americans don’t pay attention to them.

I am a registered Democrat, and have never EVER voted for a Democrat. I exist to pick the BEST Democrat in primaries, but it is a foil. 100%.

I have heard this before. Is Holt a registered Republican or not? I realize that registration is meaningless as far as one true political beliefs it can be used as an arguing point when defending/attacking a person.

Holt's performance was a partisan disgrace. Holt asked Donald Trump about his taxes, and then challenged him on his answer. He asked Trump about stop-and-frisk policies, and then challenged him, stating it was ruled unconstitutional, which it wasn't, thus conjuring visions of the Candy Crowley Ghost of Flubbing Debate Moderators Past. He asked Trump about the birther issue, and then challenged him on his answer. He asked him about Iraq, and then interrupted and challenged him five different times. What about Hillary Clinton? There was not one single challenge to anything she said...

Hold was a biased assh*le... typical liberal elite. A person's politics are defined by how they act and believe - not by a registration process.

Since every objective poll showed him winning, perhaps not preparing is the way to go?

Pray America wakes

Does anyone really believe that Lying Leftist Lester Holt would be a nightly news anchor for a "big 3" network if he were really a registered repuglican?

No more debates unless our side gets balance - Laura Ingram or Matt Drudge gets a seat right freaking next to the other side's moderator

He also needs to stop taking the bait and taking things personally!

Many of us posted eight and twelve years ago the GOP should stop the debates until the media cleaned up their act. More so now than ever.

Repeatedly subjecting candidates to slanderous accusations of racism and misogyny are useless and tiresome.

Fair format for future debates:

8 questions from the DNC (3 to their own party’s candidate 3 to opponent’s and 2 identical questions asked of both candidates)

8 questions from the RNC (3 to their own party’s candidate 3 to opponent’s and 2 identical questions asked of both candidates)

2 questions from the top rated conservative radio host

2 questions from the top rated liberal radio host

ditto with top liberal and conservative TV hosts. (two each)

Moderator keeps the time clock... and READS questions...

Holt asked Donald Trump about his taxes, and then challenged him on his answer.


I would so have loved to hear Donald Trump say, “You are questioning my answer? I stand by it. Meanwhile, this debate is not about you. It’s about the candidates. Can we please move on to the debate?”

Or something like that.

Democrats would NEVER allow a debate where moderators were ALL Republican (in name AND belief)...

Fair format for future debates:

8 questions from the DNC (3 to their own party’s candidate 3 to opponent’s and 2 identical questions asked of both candidates)

I think he got lucky and didn’t lose votes. He needs to do better or the mud is going to stick in the next one.

All you have to see to confirm bias is the few seconds Holt spent repeatedly trying to have the last word on the Iraq War issue. That was absolutely ridiculous and Trump should have called him on it.

I know a lot of people who are exactly like you.

Trump should have hen told Lester the Molester to move his chair right up next to Hillary, since it is now obvious they are both debating against him.

And when she got applause the first time, Trump should have immediately asked “Do I have any supporters here?” and got his applause, then told Lester to please do his job and control the audience.
