Grain of salt. I don’t trust CNN, but this sounds too good to be true.

Trump walking into the lions den is nothing new.

I knew it!!! I knew it!!! Posted this several days ago.. There is NO way they let a Biden Gaffe get out. It’s ALL controlled. Trump needs to bail out NOW.

[mikey_hates_everything]

That’s what I thought I read somewhere. Will it be a simulcast of CNN’s edited, censored and delayed feed or a “clean”, raw feed?

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

There will be NO audience per the rules. Trump is insane to go through with this.

[Trueblackman]

I predicted this one X, 2 weeks ago.

It’s not live, folks.

And hasn't been for a long time. There is a FCC MANDATED delay in ALL BROADCASTS, whether they are advertised as being LIVE or NOT.

> Will it [CSPAN's broadcast] be a simulcast of CNN’s edited, censored and delayed feed or a “clean”, raw feed?

It had better be true live un-delayed, unedited. It's supposed to be the network of record for American politics, fercryin'outloud!

Yup—anecdote time.

I was in a closing on my first house. At the closing the mortgage lender’s attorney had put new fees on the document—in pen—at the last minute.

I said “take them off the contract or I am walking”.

He said “no”.

I said “fine, I am out of here”.

I stood up and began walking out of the room.

I heard a loud voice behind me: “No, OK, we will remove the changes. Please come back.”

We did the closing.

I should give proper credit—the book that prepared me for that moment was Robert Ringer’s classic “Winning Through Intimidation”.

He taught me that there are two kinds of people in the world:

—Those who watch things happen
—Those who make things happen

Biden has a pit crew to change his diaper. Their best recorded time is 53 seconds

[chuckee]

I think this is about concerns of Biden having a medical episode and preventing viewers from seeing it real time. CNN and the Biden team, of course, won’t admit this and ascribe the delay to filtering out potential foul language from Mad Dog Trump

Like all Republicans, Trump underestimates the lengths the Left will go to get what they want.

Heck, it wouldn't surprise me to see the FBI come on stage and haul off Trump in the middle of the debate. Crazy? Maybe not far off.

I knew this would happen. It’s not live, folks.

I miss the days of unencrypted C-Band transmissions.

One of the betting markets gives low odds of Trump saying the word “rigged.”

[VanShuyten]

Is CNN providing the only live feed?

[Jim W N]

The Right defers to the Left at the point of acquiescence - hence the disease of RINO’s in the GOP.

The GOP always loses to the Left whereas Trump beats the left like a drum. His only loss was to monumental fraud in 2020. I don’t look for that to happen on 2024.

You’re too carful about the Left. They are losers, just don’t know it yet.

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

Or Josh Shapiro.

"Trump would be wise to have people in the audience recording the debate"

There is no audience present. There will be no witnesses.

[Nervous Tick]

You’re really a progressive at heart, aren’t you? Your true colors are showing.

[wetgundog]

Trump needs to bow out of this ClusterF**k!
