    The problem is that the CPD didn't "get someone else". This was their pick. And he LIED.

    And I suspect I could, without much difficulty at all, find lies told by many of the other debate moderators picked by CPD over the years. Saying 'then we get someone else' is ignoring the reality that the CPD is and has been failing to select honest and unbiased moderators.

    Then you should agree this commission thing needs to end since they wanted to have fewer debates and refused to schedule one before voting began, waiting a month afterwards to have the first one.

    Many Americans don't care about those debates or voting. The debates uninformative and many of the questions are never answered because the moderators let the candidates talk about what they want to talk about. The debates are a joke.

    I expect democrats and republicans to get together to schedule some debates. I wouldn't bet on it either.

    For starters, an actual debate (candidate vs candidate) would be held.

    2-3 candidates on the stage talking to each other. No moderator. Perhaps a timed agenda.

    You forgot to mention the intellectual decadence of the Left.

    Because you think there are no MAGA morons on Youtube?

    If all Americans had completed a college degree for the last election, Biden would have won by +15 million votes.

    Education is the kryptonite of conservatism.

    Biden and Harris are prime examples, plus the Green New Deal.

    I think it's readily apparent that there are morons on both sides of the political aisle. Don't you?

    I mean, this is a group who I think would call obvious facts "bias," but as long as they can replace it with something that SEEMS legit it is a net plus. If they don't replace it with something similar, it implies they can't defend their positions outside of a friendly environment like Fox.

    You don't think moron leftists can be dangerous? Steve Scalise probably disagrees.

    Just to recap: none of the protesters shot anyone on January 6th. In contrast, Steve Scalise and three other people were shot by a nutjob leftist at a practice for the Congressional baseball game.

    The 1/6 was an attempted coup.

    And the fact that you minimize what happened is also one of the reasons why the MAGA are extremely dangerous to this country.

    No it wasn't, at least not for the vast majority of the thousands of protesters that showed up that day. And there was violence in DC on the day of Trump's inauguration too.

    I really don't care what the MAGA's think about the seriousness of their action.

    Most still believe Trump won. There's nothing to do with them.

    The goal is to neutralize them politically and fortunately the majority of the electorate understands the seriousness of the threat.
