As was expected, Monday nights presidential debate moderator, Lester Holt couldnt exactly hide his bias towards Hillary Clinton .
The Daily Caller points out, Holt interrupted Trump a whopping 41 times, either to fact-check the Republican nominee, or to ask a follow-up question. Clinton was only interrupted seven times during the course of the 90-minute debate.
The so-called NBC journalist interrupted Trump 10 times during an exchange about the GOP nominees position on the Iraq war, and demanded at least 5 times why Trump thought he had better judgment than Clinton.
A Breitbart analysis of the debate transcript notes that Lester Holt only asked six questions directed at both candidates. Other than that, the moderator asked 15 questions exclusively of Trump and only TWO of Hillary Clinton .
I agree with Rudy Giuliani- Holt should be ashamed of himself.
He isn’t going to be ashamed...he’s laughing all the way to the bank with some of that Saudi money flowing through the Clinton Foundation.
This guy is fake, he looks like eddie murphy when he gets made up like a jewish guy.
Yes, the media pulled it off. With that dirty debate they managed to halt Trump’s momentum.
Hillary requested the fact checking to get started and Lester began!
The fix is in......all Hail, Queen Hillary!!
not to mention that Hillary’s mike was extra-high and Trumps was extra-low (forcing him to hunch over to speak)
Name your favorite Lester the Jester debate signal. Hillary’s seemed to be the fake nose scratch. Me I would have used the nose wiggle or the ever popular ear lobe pull.
Holt was proven to have known Clinton knew of the questions,
and he KNEW her cheat sheets would be removed,
and her special podium hidden.
NBC is nothing but a cheating racketeering PR-REP
of the Clinton Foundation and al Qaeda.
None of Holt’s “fact checks” were correct were they?
The two I remember specifically were the “stop & frisk fact check” and the “supported Iraq war fact check.” Both totally false I believe.
Holt is a disgrace. NBC should be so ashamed and fired him the very next morning.
So much for claims that Lester would be an “unbiased” moderator. I am so sick of being lied to and insulted.
“With that dirty debate they managed to halt Trumps momentum.”
Oh, I think that is way over-stated.
Mic heights.
False, and that will be borne out over the next several days. They had to use a D+11 sample to make Hillary appear up by 6 points? Definitely no halt. At best, they blunted it a little.
Hillary is swimming against the current. Every time she pauses to catch her breath, she loses ground.
And that's probably the best rigged debate performance Hillary's going to be able to get away with. It's all uphill for her from now on.
Vote Trump!
“The ever popular ear lobe pull”
Too risky, her earpiece could have fallen out.
IPSOS was a +11 Democrat sample...44% of the entire sample was Democrat, 33% Republican, 23% unaffiliated.
If that is the turnout, there’s no Democrat in history that won’t carry all 50 states.
But the truth of it is that IPSOS is creating a fiction to match the narrative they want.
People need to stop freaking out over these polls, they are just as ludicrous as the unemployment figures the government puts out.
