1st Debate: Clinton-Holt Tag Team vs. Trump
The New American ^

Posted on 09/27/2016 3:39:59 PM PDT by detective

The “Debate of the Century,” the first face-to-face matchup between presidential contenders Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, quickly turned into a three-way affair, with NBC “moderator” Lester Holt (shown at left) repeatedly taking sides with Clinton and badgering Trump. The hour-and-a-half debate, broadcast live Monday night on all the major networks from the Hofstra University campus in Hempstead, New York, was expected to attract 100 million viewers, a new record for a political event, and second only to the Super Bowl. From tabulations now available, it appears the final viewer count may come close to those predicted numbers. Another even more important prediction also proved to be accurate: that debate moderator Lester Holt would follow the familiar path of liberal media moderators in previous debates and throw support to the liberal-left Democrat.

At the start of the event, Holt announced that the planned six 15-minute segments would be directed at exploring three topic areas: "Achieving Prosperity," "America's Direction" and "Securing America." The debate, he explained, was being sponsored by the Commission on Presidential Debates, a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization. The commission had drafted the debate's format, and the rules had been agreed to by the campaigns.

Clinton and Holt worked together against Trump.

Clinton had the questions before the debate but was scripted and artificial.

Trump came off as genuine and concerned about the economy and national security.

Trump won.

4 way Tag team :

1) Clinton

3) Person talking to Hillary’s hidden earphone
4) Audio Engineer rigging microphone, noise, loudness

Just by standing for 90 minutes and responding to those two clowns in a dignified way Trump destroyed the “crazy” meme the media and Dems have been trying to build for months.

why do the presidential debate moderators always have to be MSM news reporters? I suggest there be a pool of common people to randomly choose from and that the questions be taken from the public.

The 4th person should be ratted out, fired, and blacklisted.

The MSM is hurting Hillary the person they are suppose to help. People are sick of the know it all talking heads on t.v. and will do the opposite they say to do. The talking heads look and sound stupid because they have been wrong about Trump most of the time. They do not get it. Trump is unique and likeable. The Hillary candidate is not unigue and likeable.

No matter how much lipstick and pantsuits you put on her, she is simply an ugly excuse for humanity. She thinks pretty highly of herself, and like every nitwit democRAT, she thinks she is smarter, and better than everyone else.

Who needs an earpiece when she has Lester Holt?

Someone said he's trying to act 'blacker' by supporting Hillary, since he looks whiter than a lot of white people. He'd probably get beat up in most hoods unless he knows the password. I love that story that he's a Republican. In what country?

Holt wore an earpiece that fed him specific data to use AGAINST responses by The Donald. THAT is at least one way Lester the lip cheated for his mistress of evil.

Anderson Cooper (gag) and Martha Raddatz(gag, gag). In other words, there will be no moderators, just Hillary's 1st and 2nd partners. They are going to try to outdo Lester Holt. Lester is calling them white privilege racist cultural appropriators.

Holt avoided questioning Hillary on every one of her soft spots.....Benghazi, secret server, Clinton Foundation,from “broke” to $250 million is assets on income of $200,000 per year, Russia reset, China expansion, North Korea nuclear proliferation, Iranian treaty that sells out America.....just to name a few.

Any future debates need to be administered by un biased 3rd parties. Questions should be equally composed by both parties and alternated for fairness. Moderators do not fact check or comment other than just enforcing the time limits.
