Trump wasted too much time on the Iraq war. He wasn’t even in office when it was voted on. Who cares. He also got hung up on the birth certificate, and his taxes. Hillary got softballs all night. All in all I’d call it a draw.

He was a liberal, but the team mate of the Late Bill Buckley and that was Michael Kinsley. He was fair, and a decent debate moderator. I'd give him all three to run IMHO, but sadly he he has been off the public stage I believe for health reasons.

Another name I'd mention to run all three and he is a gentlemen and fair is Bill Bennett...

So team someone like Bennett & Kinsley together to run all three...

The questions were definitely chosen to favor Clinton. The question about the birth certificate for example could only hurt Trump and was a gimmee for Clinton. The birth certificate is not even a campaign issue.

Lester Holt - NBC's lawn jockey and Clinton's house boy.

In all respects, a despicable whoring toady.

A perfect fit for the pimps at Enemedia, Inc.

Lester had no choice guys, he knew if he did not go in the tank for Hillary he would be "Matt Lauered"...

No one in the Libtard MSM wants to suffer that fate. You don't get invited to all the cool kid's cocktail parties if that happens to you.

They hammer away at "their point," the carefully crafted narrative which doesn't fit the facts. An example of one liberal news media and Lester Holt hammer point is the "When did you decide the birth certificate is ok" idiocy. Holt really lost it and revealed himself as Hillary sycophant when he didn't get what he wanted.

However, Trump didn't get away clean. He should have said one sentence, let Holt be frustrated and hammer again, then said "Asked and answered, Lester but I will take this time to point out that you and Hillary Clinton are simply lying when you call me a racist. Nobody believes mainstream media or Hillary Clinton. The American people know you're lying and they'd like you to stop, but I don't think you will.

Excellent analysis here, color coded:

Note this:

Trump was asked 15 exclusive questions

Clinton was asked 2 exclusive questions

Lester Holt, the preprogrammed dolt. Wonder where they load the cassette tape with his programming? I know where it SHOULD go...

No one seriously thought Lefter Holt, representing NBC, who throw anything at Hillary besides softballs did they?

Get rid of moderators altogether and replace them with a modified chess clock timer.

Not only do liberal moderators jump in to act as a second debater against the conservative, but it’s inherently biased to let a liberal supposed “journalist” pose the questions in the first place. Not a single question was posed on Hilllary’s illegal email server, or immigration, or the billions unaccounted for at the Clinton Foundation.

Let the debaters bring their own questions for the other. Begin with a coin toss. 1 minute question, then 3 minute answer, then 2 minute rebuttal, 1 minute counter-rebuttal, 30 second summery/final rebuttal. (These times are merely suggestions, but you get the idea. The mic will switch on and off on a set schedule, known and agreed upon by both debaters.)

The microphone goes hot and cold on this schedule. A soft chime alerts the speaker with the hot mic when they have 10 seconds left in any stage segment, and large countdown clocks will be visible to both sides showing who has the hot mic and their time remaining.

At the end of each 7 or 8 minute stage, provide a minute for a water break or note jotting while the clock resets. The next debater can then use his or her new 1 minute question period to revisit the previous topic, and run the stage again on that topic, or, they can switch to an entirely new topic with a fresh question.

Repeat the process, alternating sides, until both are exhausted and agree to quit, or until an agreed-upon time limit is reached.

Just get rid of 3rd wheel moderators, their interference, and their built-in bias.

Where does the bias line end and the prejudice line begin?

Holt crossed that point - in the very first question.

Lester Holt was like a little dog pulling on Trump’s pantleg about birtherism and tax returns.

As far as tax returns under audit go, I offer this...

https://www.thestreet.com/story/13687015/1/would-no-tax-lawyer-advise-trump-release-his-tax-returns-it-s-complicated.html

“Speaking as a tax lawyer who represents taxpayers under audit, I would never advise a client whose returns are under audit to make those returns public,” said Robert Kovacev, a tax lawyer with Steptoe & Johnson in Washington, D.C. “If you release a tax return to the public, what you are essentially doing is crowdsourcing the audit.”

WHEN would this tax lawyer advise his client to release tax returns under audit?.....

Lester Hold revealed that he lacks the objectivity and competence to host a debate.

Who in their right mind would expect any level of balance from ANY media staff regards a debate, especially a presidential one, for all the marbles?
