Exactly. She never talked over Joe, but constantly spoke over the President. Very disrespectful.

idk how this site keeps saying she was good. Better than Chris Wallace, sure but I don't know how we can honestly say good.

When Trump stopped to say she was doing a good job I was very surprised because she kept talking over him but not Biden, yet I guess this IS the most fair debate moderator Trump has ever had which is SAD!!!

It was by far the best we could have hoped for from a liberal moderator. She helped Joe a little bit but it wasn't the full 1 vs 2 like we expected. It allowed Trump to shine since he didn't have to argue with 2 people.

Tbh, Trump would have just kept talking until she stopped him. That’s a debate strategy, monopolize the time and the audience will ‘assume’you won the debate, regardless of content. She was appropriate with her interruptions to end his points. Would like to see the final ‘time speaking’ tally on this debate.

Yeah and I don't know how people can say she was that bad. Compared to virtually the entirety of the media in terms of their treatment of Trump, she gave him the 5 star experience with a happy ending. I know "the bar is low". That's life. Get with the program...

Nah I wont pretend that a moderator should be neutral. She cut off trump dozens of times, outside his 2 minutes he was constantly talking over her to get a word out yet she would then turn to Biden and say "would you like to respond?" and be quiet.

Overly biased moderators is not a program I will ever "get with" and it's a problem to normalize it. Sure if it swung slightly left then another time right we could understand it's just because people are human but are trying, no it's ALWAYS leftists who moderate debates and that needs to change.

I mean the truth is Trump is way more alpha and commanding than Biden will ever be, and what you're describing is literally moderation, it's what's supposed to happen.

Trump, as awesome as he is, needs to be reined in a little in that kind of situation or he will steamroll the whole room with his big dick energy. While we may enjoy and appreciate that, that isn't what a debate is supposed to be about.

She did a great job by this metric: both of them were fully able to express their points.

she wasn't good like a truly neutral or patriotic moderator would be, but she was outstanding relative to what we expect from these hostile media scumbags.

they probably see the writing in the wall tbh
