Presidential Debates Admits Trump’s Mic Was Messed Up
Daily Caller ^ | 9/30/2016 | Robert Donachie

The Commission on Presidential Debates reported on Friday that there were in fact issues with Donald Trump’s microphone at the Debate Monday evening at Hofstra university in New York.

Following the debate, Trump told the press that they “gave me a defective mic. Did you notice that? My mic was defective within the room,” CNN reports. Trump posed the question: “Was that on purpose?”

While it may be too early to call it anything other than a technical malfunction, the Commission on Presidential Debates said “there were issues regarding Donald Trump’s audio that affected the sound level in the debate hall.”

Lou Dobbs also showed a Hillary operative screwing around the podiums at the debate site.

Nobody knows what he was doing.

Whether it’s four years ago or now it seems like whenever there’s a debate it involves a conservative having to trust Network people.

that just never works.

The next one should be on OAN, moderated by Milo.

let them suck on that.

Wow, they could just trust Holt to take care of Trump for them. This is like the King in Hamlet having the poisoned wine for Hamlet to drink in case Laertes didn’t wound him with the poisoned rapier. Over-kill.

After giving this careful analysis, some committee should be formed with a reasonable budget, to target a carefully selected listing of those most likely to respond favorably to this concept: Making the Presidential election to a major extent a rebuff to those who would use American Freedom of the Press to promote an amoral, "our ends justify any necessary means," to foist our will on the American public.

I am sure that a computerized scan of web blogs could be designed to ferret out a list of people, whose public commentary indicates that they would pick up such an idea and run with it.

The ammunition, of course, would be a verifiable list of all the dirty tricks to which the Trump campaign has been subjected by an amoral cadre of journalistic bullies, who seek to tear down the America, Trump wants to revitalize.

“...ready to start ... insist on trading spots...”

I love this! I have been saying on other threads that Trump’s campaign ought to insist on an inspection of the podiums and the ears right before the debate before he agrees to another one - your idea is better!

Of course it was on purpose. Trump has shown in previous situations very little patience for bad microphones.

Cheaters gonna cheat.


Yeah, but it's the job of Trump Campaign to check this stuff because Hillary and the media will stop at nothing to cheat.

Wonder if this was a Trump Trap.

Trump has a lot of ammo to fire at the debate organizers that dove tail into in his whole “rigged system” campaign theme which is going to hurt both Hillary and the media and give him space to come out aggressively in the next debate.

The media immediately mocked him too.

This thing is so rigged.

You know this world has gone mad when Alex Jones starts to make sense.

By hook or crook.
I hope Trump learned from last Monday: Clinton and her crew don’t play by the rules of civilized society.
On top of that, they will accuse you of doing what they are doing.
She is evil and can’t be allowed anywhere near the White House.

Someone had pointed out that immediately after the debate ended, there was some dude that quickly rushed to Cankle’s lecturn and removed a bunch of paper and stuff....he did this hastily.
