DeSantis ran a crap campaign beholden to elitist moneyed interests. President Trump the indefatigable lionheart cleaned his clock. DeSantis to his credit recognized defeat and threw his support behind the rightful President.

But you — you’d sooner see my beloved America go to the dogs rather than throw YOUR support behind President Trump. Disgusting. Why? I say it’s because at heart you’re progressive.

> I don’t know how ‘simulcast’ works; but the word suggests to me that they’ll get what CNN broadcasts.

If CSPAN just passes along the censored CNN feed, we will at last have to admit we have lost not just this battle, but the war for news integrity in its entirety. CSPAN was our last outpost of supposed neutrality.

OTOH I have not seen mention of this delay anywhere on the internet except the X/Tweet that started this thread. Do we know this isn't fake news?

Of course CSPAN must pass on the CNN feed.

They have no access to the site.

You can’t cover something if you are not even allowed in the room.

That is like blaming CSPAN for not covering the Congressional Subcommittee classified sessions.

Trump should file a protest. The rules did NOT say anything about any kind of delay.

"I have not seen mention of this delay anywhere"

The way CNN is, unless I had multiple sets running simultaneously, I wouldn't take the chance of finding out too late that CNN was messing with their broadcast.

One has to wonder if CNN got word from “Joe-Joe’s” boys that
he’s not tuning up like they hoped he would.
Good possibility in my view.

Start making up new rules and regs. to make Trump drop out.

Can almost see the next step would be that no recording devices will be permitted
in the building other than the CNN cameras.

Trump should wear a digital clock on his front side with bright digits. It should display minutes and seconds. They would have a hard time doing edits then wouldn’t they? Even an old digital stop watch hanging on a necklace would do the trick. Beat those jerks at their own game.

We are waiting for confirmation on whether this is true or not—we should know for sure soon enough...

If the delay is true, I don’t see how CSPAN has any choice. CNN is calling the shots.

It seems a sign of Biden’s and his administration’s weakness that any suggestion of a debate under fair terms would have been rejected by them. I doubt there will be another debate after this, no matter how tonight goes. Trump won’t agree to another one of these, and Biden can’t stand up to a real, fair debate.

Negotiating rules with leftists is certain doom.

They cheat—every time.

Yes, it’s stupid to even try. Trump needs to cancel.

If Trump complains about any of CNN’s manipulative shenanigans they and their allies on the Left will say he’s making excuses for his performance.

Oh, dear Lord. That removes the entertainment value completely, as they censor out such things as “Lying, dog-faced pony soldier” and “True internationalupadapressure!”

At press time, Project Veritas confirmed in a ambush interview that CNN staffers are taking intensive Russian courses.

I certainly won’t be watching such silliness, either.
