This isn’t just going to be a debate with muted microphones. It is going to be totally fixed to help Biden.

I do not get it why we allow CNN and MSM to run debates. FOX is no better either.

This a job for C-Span.
CNN is wearing egg on their face and really has no seat at the table AFAIC.

The left can’t help but to put up guardrails that cause them to crash and burn. This backfire will be glorious.I guess without an audience. Trump can’t fill the audience with all the little girls Joe has assulted.

Like many corporate news hosts, Tapper and Bash are anti-Christian uber-democrats with severe TDS.

Is it even possible to find moderators who are reasonably objective with no political ax to grind?

What formats/protocol would provide better insight into a candidates positions without a moderator putting their thumb on the scale? How about this?

Candidates take turns asking one another questions - something like this:


Trump asks Biden question A.
Biden has 2 minutes to answer.
Trump has 2 minutes to respond (follow-up)to Biden's question A answer.
Biden has 2 minutes to respond to Trump's follow-up.
Moderator prompts Biden to ask his question.
Same sequence as before except candidate roles are reversed.

With this protocol, the moderator(s) are allowed no questions or comments. Their job is to strictly enforce the given protocol.

Any other suggestions for having a meaningful and fair debate?

I know. It seems we never learn.

Everything is fixed. So why the waste of time?

Trump will swamp Atlanta with visits before the debate while Biden hides out in a Lilly white Rehobeth beach.
