Unfair Presidential Debate

[CRandy]

The Clinton/Trump debate was unfair. Hillary was only interrupted 7-9 times. Trump was interrupted over 40 times. Because the bias media isn't willing to be fair, they should be replaced immediately!!

huh?

The GOP knows what's going on with the press, yet they still choose to do little about it.

Trump could have said something during the debate, but he just doesn't have the presence of mind to do it.

Yes, they're at a disadvantage, but when the camera is on you and your microphone is on, do something about it. You can't blame someone else when you're not doing anything about it.

The press was not why Trump looked like an idiot. It was because of the answers he gave to straight forward questions.

The press is giving Trump way more respect than he deserves. He is an unhinged narcissist who should have never made it this far in any country's presidential election.

Trump and you are a joke, plain and simple.

He was interrupted to tell him to SHUT UP!!! He kept talking over Clinton during her two minute statements and wouldn't stop talking (repeatedly) when the moderator called "time" on an issue. Clinton rarely stepped on Trump's rhetoric. He needs to learn to take turns.

Trump interrupted Hillary 51 times, she 17 times. Trump was a loon who wouldn't shut up.

The Clinton camp was unhappy about the Matt Lauer town hall and now the Trump camp is unhappy about Lester Holt. Both sides IMO have a point. There does need to be better oversight on the types of questions that are asked. For example, if you ask Clinton about emails, then you need to ask Trump about Trump University. Also, let the American audience do their own fact checking, or let the media do it the next day. It's not the moderators place to interrupt and fact check either candidate on the spot. We all have internet access and can easily do some homework, or we can read a newspaper the next day. The moderator should pose the question and then manage time for each answer and not let the candidates interrupt each other.

Life is not fair. When you know the deck is stacked against you its time to be prepared and adjust accordingly. Reagan was a master, Trump not so much. He had the opportunity to disclose and point out the Hag's delusional perception of how the economy works, business, and historical facts pointing out how her brand of foreign policy results in war. He needed to use a little humor in his presentation and stop the whining about the press and media, he knows better and should expect and accept it.

If you are a politician, you need to answer tough questions. They both need to be asked about their failings. Just like all humans, they both have them. Trump has way more failings than the average American but admits to none. The characteristic of a weak person.
