CNN:   "Okay, we admit it.   The debate feed delay is a bit longer than two minutes."

I see on X/Twitter that CNN is refuting this and I see no one else beyond this one writer that it will occur. Anyone else see any collaboration for a delay?

This is false. The debate will begin live at 9pm ET.

That’s not a refutation.

Wouldn’t that be nice, except there will not be any audience.
Gotta keep the big lie under wraps.

I’m in the wrong time zone to stream it in real time. But this should be the last straw. He should refuse to go through with it. What next? He has to wear a chicken suit?

Yes, a bit of a non-answer. Why couldn’t they say No, there will be no delay. or There will be a 5-7 second delay.

It seems that bias is the requirement.

I asked ChatGPT 4o when and who was the last conservative moderator for a presidential debate and got the answer as Chris Wallace in 2016.

Explains the setup of falsely accusing others of fakes and edits of videos of Biden.

Now they can do it and deny it or say “everybody’s doing it.”

Delay on radio and TV is so filthy words can be bleeped or lawsuit bait slander can be stopped.

A.I. can completely wreak havoc in a situation like this.

Trump needs to make his own recording for his own protection.

Then they can say the audio and video feed was lost.

Happened today when Lara Trump had just started to talk on Glenn Beck.
“I’ve been informed we’ve lost our entire phone bank. This is a mess.”

That happened on a famous case on the old Coast to Coast am (long before I ever heard of it.). The caller was at a phone booth near some desert outpost reporting on something strange. He said he wasn’t supposed to tell anybody but....
And the entire region blanked out of all phone service. No reason was ever found.

LOL!!!

In 2016, with time running out, Wallace asked Trump if he'd accept the results of the election.

Wallace: Mr. Trump, I want to ask you about one last question in this topic. You’ve been warning at rallies recently that this election is rigged and that Hillary Clinton is in the process of trying to steal it from you. Your running mate Governor Pence pledged on Sunday that he and you, his words, will absolutely accept the result of this election. Today your daughter Ivanka said the same thing. I want to ask you here on the stage tonight, do you make the same commitment that you’ll absolutely accept the result of the election.

Trump: I will look at it at the time. I’m not looking at anything now, I’ll look at it at the time. What I’ve seen, what I’ve seen, is so bad. First of all, the media is so dishonest and so corrupt and the pile on is so amazing. “The New York Times” actually wrote an article about it, but they don’t even care. It is so dishonest, and they have poisoned the minds of the voters. But unfortunately for them, I think the voters are seeing through it. I think they’re going to see through it, we’ll find out on November 8th, but I think they’re going to see through it. If you look --

Wallace: But, but --

Trump: Excuse me, Chris. If you look at your voter rolls, you will see millions of people that are registered to vote. Millions. This isn’t coming from me. This is coming from Pew report and other places. Millions of people that are registered to vote that shouldn’t be registered to vote. So let me just give you one other thing. I talk about the corrupt media. I talk about the millions of people. I’ll tell you one other thing. She shouldn’t be allowed to run. It’s -- She’s guilty of a very, very serious crime. She should not be allowed to run, and just in that respect I say it’s rigged because she should never --

Wallace: But, but --

Trump: Chris. She should never have been allowed to run for the presidency based on what she did with e-mails and so many other things.

Wallace: But, sir, there is a tradition in this country, in fact, one of the prides of this country is the peaceful transition of power and no matter how hard fought a campaign is that at the end of the campaign, that the loser concedes to the winner. Not saying you’re necessarily going to be the loser or the winner, but that the loser concedes to the winner and the country comes together in part for the good of the country. Are you saying you’re not prepared now to commit to that principle?

Trump: What I’m saying is that I will tell you at the time. I’ll keep you in suspense, okay?

Clinton: Well Chris, let me respond to that because that’s horrifying. You know, every time Donald thinks things aren’t going in his direction, he claims whatever it is, is rigged against him. The FBI conducted a yearlong investigation into my e-mails. They concluded there was no case. He said the FBI was rigged. He lost the Iowa caucus, he lost the Wisconsin primary, he said the Republican primary was rigged against him. Then, Trump University gets sued for fraud and racketeering. He claims the court system and the federal judge is rigged against him. There was even a time when he didn’t get an Emmy for his TV program three years in a row and he started tweeting that the Emmys were rigged against him.

Trump: Should have gotten it.

(Laughter)

Clinton: This is a mind-set. This is how Donald thinks, and it’s funny, but it’s also really troubling. That is not the way our democracy works. We’ve been around for 240 years. We’ve had free and fair elections. We’ve accepted the outcomes when we may not have liked them, and that is what must be expected of anyone standing on a debate stage during a general election. You know, President Obama said the other day when you’re whining before the game is even finished--

(Applause)

Wallace: Hold on, folks.

Clinton:-- It just shows you’re not up to doing the job. And let’s be clear about what he’s saying and what that means. He’s denigrating, he is talking down our democracy. And I, for one, am appalled that somebody who is the nominee of one of our two major parties would take that kind of position.

Trump: I think what the FBI did and what the Department of Justice did, including meeting with her husband, the Attorney General, in the back of an airplane on the tarmac in Arizona, I think it’s disgraceful. I think it’s a disgrace.

Wallace: All right.

Trump: I think we’ve never had a situation so bad

(Applause)

Wallace: Hold on, folks. This doesn’t do any good for anyone. Let’s please continue the debate and let’s move onto the subject of foreign hotspots...

The next day Wallace said that he lost track and "forgot" to ask Clinton the same question.

To this day, President Trump is still being hounded over accepting the results of elections while Clinton is still acting as if she were the true winner in 2016.

Maybe the presidential candidate to have a medical emergency is not Biden. Maybe this is how they get rid of Trump. It will be ‘live’ tv so no further investigation needed. It could be anything from making Trump look sick, act sick, or be permanently removed. The 2 minute delay could cover up a lot. No audience, no independent press. We just have to trust CNN

RE: In case Biden freezes for 1-2 minutes

In Like Flint deep freeze scene. But Biden’s “companion” will be a ten year old girl.

yep!

In 2006, The Washington Post reported that Wallace was registered as a Democrat in Washington, D.C., and had been so for more than two decades.

How long does it take Biden to fall over? How long does it take to realize he has a brain freeze? If they are quick the can switch cameras even with 5-7 seconds.

Funny video.

This is why CNN won’t allow an audience for tonight’s debate
