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.
CNN doesn't want witnesses in the room to report what's going on during the two-minute delay in the feed in case something happens.
