Debates should solely be moderated by individuals not associated with the media with a mute button and timer who have a list of questions they ask both candidates. The moderator is not allowed to speak after the question is asked. Only candidates can rebut each other, not moderators. All cable stations and networks may cover it if they so wish

I’d say this was a typical modern “debate”...replete with “moderators” who should be ashamed at their lack of integrity and absence of professionalism. If they had any class at all, they would resign today, put on sack cloth, douse themselves in ashes and roam the USA begging forgiveness while continually beating themselves with a thorny stick. Both “moderators were such incredible losers. Pox upon them!

Walter Concrete used to be the most trusted man in America. These days, though he is not ashamed of his positions, I'd say that Victor Davis Hansen and the likes of Thomas Sowell would be the men to go to for fair and honest.

Don't know the other woman but Norah can't hide her bias and doesn't even bother to try. The other one is a shill.

Such a simple idea, but I’d never thought of it before. Why must it be that only journalists are qualified to moderate these things?

I would prefer having no questions at all, just topics. If there are questions by moderators, however, there should be no setup speeches introducing the question.
