RNC cuts ties to presidential debate commission, citing partisan bias

"Conflict between Republicans and the commission took center stage in 2020 when Steve Scully, a former Biden staffer and then-C-SPAN contributor, was slated to moderate the second presidential debate."

Have you forgotten Candy Crowley siding with Obama over Libya actually "fact checking" Romney and she was WRONG?

Or how about this

"NBC moderator Savannah Guthrie’s unrelenting attack on the president at NBC’s “Town Hall” last week, including interrupting and talking over him, and haranguing him as well as dominating the time in an advertised public questioning of Mr. Trump, was praised by some as representing the tough style that debates should have. This Guthrie-Trump clash, however, was over the top, and, like George Stephanopoulos' town hall, employed a Democratic-friendly agenda and spin, with both moderators' ignoring Hunter Biden’s involvement with the Ukrainian energy company Burisma. The latter town hall also included a question from an audience member who was a former Obama administration Commerce Department speechwriter."

The RNC has had enough of it.

 

No... they refused to modify the first debate date, which was agreed to by both candidates...

 

My point is, whoever you mean by "Biden lackey" wasn't effective and didn't help Biden, who never got to finish a question without Trump opening his little pie hold to interrupt. That's what he does in debates because he doesn't have knowledge or ideas enough to debate the important issues of the day. Nor does he care ... if it isn't about him, how important could it be?

There has not been a Republican moderator in eons.

 

This was expected. Party of Trump Republicans can't debate Democrats anymore. They'd get their ass kicked. Especially if there is anybody fact checking their lies.

 

You're really don't have a clue, do you? Like, can't even hazard a guess?

 

How many threads about this are you guys going to start?

And I note you did not quote WHY the RNC said they were doing so, don't you think that would be a key consideration? This has been LONG in coming.

 

They set it up to ensure another Ross Perot could never take the stage.

whatever. False.

 

According to the RNC:
"1+1=2" is "partisan bias"...

 

Why do you care if the Republicans pull out of the debates? It's nothing but a dog and pony show and most voters get their information of social media.

 

Like I said, it wouldn't make any difference.

 

Is the insult necessary?

 

Deliberately insulting someone rarely results in swaying anyone's opinion. It just makes you sound like a child.

Since you can't behave like an adult, I've placed you on my Ignore list, which I refer to as my Kindergarten club.

 

Name ONE.

 

Sure it would.

 

Because the American people have a right to know if the Republican Party is pushing a complete moron to be President of the United States, like they did the last two times.

 

IDGAF

 

You argument is that "the American people have a right" to presidential debates? Fine, let's have Joe Rogan moderate.

I have every confidence that the American people are going to be informed enough to elect the Republican candidate in 2024.

 

Americans have a RIGHT to debates moderated by people who are not easily proven LIARS.

 

Long , long time ago, the League of Women Voters handled the debates. They were a long ways from perfect, but much better than anything we've had since.

At this point, you could call into question the value of what we are mistakenly calling debates.

 

The Commission on Presidential Debates selected an easily proven liar to moderate (at least one of) the debate(s) last time: C-SPAN’s Steve Scully suspended after admitting to lying about Twitter hack | The Hill

 

Let's see this "proof". Did he say that vaccines altered your genetic material? Or that it was "proven" that the health risks from the vaccines were higher than from Covid? Like Joe Rogan did?

And I'm talking about LIES. Not MISTAKES that they later corrected. Joe Rogan has NEVER corrected his lies.

And if Scully lied, we just choose somebody else.... no problem

 

Did you even try to read the linked article? Scully admitted he lied. What more proof could you possibly expect?

- Steve Scully, known liar, and also the pick of the CPD for debate moderator

 

As I said, if he lies, then we put somebody who doesn't. But the poster I responded to wanted Joe Rogan... I mean... Can't get a bigger liar than that.
