These filthy, China First animals are going to mute Trump and make it an uncontested infomercial for Biden. I'm not even sure how Trump can accept these terms. They are going to turn a debate into Biden just reciting something he wrote down for a future ad.
If Trump wins, good luck to Western intel. China is going to be playing with a mouse while a handful of lazy "elite". The elite don't have their asses on the line though.
If it's just for the opening 2 min, maybe I it will be acceptable and fair. However, they need to debate back and forth, and who is to know if the won't mute at their own discretion? Like men. Like leaders. May the best man win.
Debate commission says it will mute Trump, Biden while opponent talks
The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) will mute President Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden during the two-minute response times allotted to their opponents for commenting on topics during Thursday's debate in Nashville.
The commission said in a statement that it "had determined that it is appropriate to adopt measures intended to promote adherence to agreed-upon rules and inappropriate to make changes to those rules.”
Also included in the debate will be an open discussion forum that won't include the mute option. Thursday’s debate will consist of six 15-minute segments, totaling 90 minutes in all as in the first debate.
Trump's and Biden's initial debate was widely panned as both candidates faced backlash for their behavior. The two candidates skipped the second presidential debate after Trump was diagnosed with the novel coronavirus and declined to participate in a virtual format.
Announced on Monday, the new rule drew scrutiny from the Trump campaign, which urged the commission earlier in the day to include more discussion of foreign policy in the next debate.
