Cruz on Trump Not Wanting Virtual Debate: ‘I Think the President’s Right on This’
Breitbart ^ | October 07 2020 | TRENT BAKER

I think the president’s right on this, and unfortunately, I think this is a pattern we’ve seen play out throughout the debates, where the moderators and the debate commission have behaved like arms of the Joe Biden campaign,” Cruz explained. “I think at the first debate … Chris Wallace did a terrible job moderating. Last night, I think Susan Page did a better job moderating. She didn’t interrupt as much but her questions were still, you know, it’s an interesting hypothetical to go back and look at the questions she asked, and ask how would the questions have read differently had they been written by the Joe Biden campaign? And that virtually every question out of her mouth was from the left, with all of the assumptions Joe Biden and the Democrats believe. There was really very little pushing on the other side.”

“This decision here to hold a virtual debate, that benefits Joe Biden, that lets his staff be in the room, that lets him receive assistance,” he added. “One of the real concerns a lot of people have is if Joe Biden is even up to it and if you insulate him and let him do the debate from the basement, that’s eliminating the debate aspect of it, and listen, I think the reason the commission did this is the Democrats right now think they’re winning. They believe Joe Biden’s winning. I think they’re very happy for Joe not to leave his basement for another minute between now and Election Day, and if the commission sticks to we’re going to do it virtually, I think the president is right to say I’m not going to participate in this charade.”

Its long past time for the GOP to totally boycott the so called debate commission. They are nothing but the propaganda, disinformation and dirty tricks department of the Democratic Party. President Trump is the biggest ratings magnet in politics on the planet. He don't need no steeenking debate commission to get his message out.

What you said.

A virtual debate would be a disaster for President Trump.

Slo Joe would have a lot of help behind the scenes and the democrat activist moderator will cut the feed from Trump or mute him whenever they want.

And like someone earlier said, Trump doesn’t need debates. Biden does.

If Trump wins in 2020 and especially if he wins big, no Republican who does not run in the mold of Trump is finished in the primaries.

I was disenchanted with Cruz in the primaries.

I am over that.

He is a good Senator and a good ally for Trump.

“but he’s been fine since”

That’s all I was trying to say.

“saw single mom Ainsley defend Wallace, I puked.”

Why is the “single mom” reference important to this conversation?

Short snapshot.....Twice-divorced Fox regular (and public defender of Trump-hater Chris Wallace), and mother of one, Ainsley Earhardt, 43......and Fox personality, Sean Hannity, 58, (two children and divorced), are "100% dating" according to reports, despite the fact that he is considered to be a "workaholic".

She rents a place close to Sean's Long Island abode.....and she regularly records Fox episodes in a studio inside his home.

Friends say Sean and Ainsley "have been carrying on for years", even when he was separated but still married.

The Fox couple refuse to discuss their private lives with the media.

She's a devout in your face "Christian" who couldn't live up to her marriage vows before God. After six years of marriage, Proctor filed for divorce in October 2018 after Earhardt announced their separation amid allegations that he had been unfaithful. They divorced in 2019. In June 2020, People magazine reported that Earhardt and Fox News host Sean Hannity have been "quietly dating 'for years'".

That’s Hannity’s girlfriend. Hire an American nanny.

Pence hasn’t really emerged as a charismatic figure.

I agree. He's good as a VP; solid and steady. But a fighter? Not that I've seen yet.

Trump better be careful around Hannity since he is sleeping with Ainsley.

Speaking of the Scarlet Letter, I noticed at the debate last night that Harris (or the moderator?—in any case the Dems :) stated that having covid is a “pre-existing condition” aka chronic.

I know some have lingering effects but really. . .this is an effort to make Trump a leper.

Did anyone see Ainsley cut off Cruz when he said Wallace did a terrible job? She shut him down and said Chris Wallace is their friend. So Ainsley, you stab your fans in the back to defend Wallace?

One by one FOX is cutting the ties to f affection and trust of their fans.

Ainsley is empty-headed.
She will say whatever is necessary to keep her job.

I turned off FOX 4 years ago, except for Levin and Tucker.
