Let everyone see it. Once the people in charge of the mute button begin, they will be quick to use it over and over. The problem for them will become apparent that you can't stop the Trump train. It has NO brakes. This will result in nothing but positive results at the next stop. Election day.
He talks loud enough that Biden's mic will pick it up anyways, and it will still achieve the goal of disrupting Biden's lying... talking... same thing.
If they do, I hope Trump has a smart plan. You don't understand the left, and this will shift the Overton window majorly what's going to happen the very next day is that they will suspend his Twitter account. Then TV channels will stop covering him
Prez shifts to Parleur, Gab, (or here!), and announces that he's done with Twitter, and that all patriots should also abandon Twitter. Oh, and all future 'tweets' will be on whitehouse.gov. MSM dutifully follows, if only to get the latest blurb. Libtards follow, because ragebait.
Two weeks later, Twitter's traffic drops to nothing but bots and blue-haired broke-asses, neither of which will attract ad dollars. Twitter goes the way of MySpace six months later.
Fox News, OANN, and Newsmax get exclusive interviews, nightly. CNN, MSNBC, etc told to go piss up a rope.
Press briefings replaced by something called 'intimate Q&A' (like the FDR Fireside chats, but with Q&A), featuring reporters from OANN, Fox News (if they behave), Newsmax, etc. Rest of MSM told to go piss up a rope - they can go read the releases on whitehouse.gov and settle for that.
Muting his mic will backfire, yuuugely. He will still say shit out loud, but the audience wont hear it. Biden will, however, and he will look even more demented arguing with some voice no one else can hear.
And it only helps Trump. He can say whatever he wants, off the record, but as soon as Joe Biden breaks, he's done. He's going to lash out and look crazy as hell.
The format of the debates has already been agreed upon. The President should preemptively release a counter-statement reminding the commission of that fact, and that any proposed modifications that aren't agreed upon by both parties are null and void.
What they're actually trying to do here is get Trump to drop out of the last two debates, so Biden doesn't have to.
They're going to say the president isnt agreeing to the rules because he's talking out of turn but it doesn't matter since the next one is a townhall. Trump isnt going to be on an assault to discourage Biden's supporters so much as answering questions from "undecided" voters directly.
They can say whatever they want, it's not for them to decide. This isn't about pleasing some bureaucracy or pack of functionaries, it's about showing the American people these candidates, warts and all.
Any attempt to silence or censor Trump will annihilate the entire pretext for their authority to create rules in the first place.
This will only wake more people up to the total anti Trump bias in corporate media.
The harder they try to shut him up the more they show their true intentions.
Believe it or not there are a lot of low info/drive-by news types who still think the corporate media is trying to be fair. They are going to see the truth.
Debates before the CPD
The first televised presidential debates were held between Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy during the 1960 campaign. No general-election debates were done in 1964, and Richard Nixon refused to participate in any debate in 1968 and 1972. Beginning with the 1976 election, the League of Women Voters sponsored the televised Gerald Ford–Jimmy Carter debates, followed by the John B. Anderson–Ronald Reagan and Reagan–Carter debates for the 1980 election, and Reagan and Walter Mondale in 1984.
"The League of Women Voters is withdrawing its sponsorship of the presidential debate scheduled for mid-October because the demands of the two campaign organizations would perpetrate a fraud on the American voter," League President Nancy M. Neuman said today.
"It has become clear to us that the candidates' organizations aim to add debates to their list of campaign-trail charades devoid of substance, spontaneity and honest answers to tough questions," Neuman said. "The League has no intention of becoming an accessory to the hoodwinking of the American public."
Fuck this shit. WE run the country now not these cucks. Why the fuck are we not in full control of the moderation? I’m sick of moderators being so blatantly left-wing biased. We voted Trump because we don’t trust “the system”, so why are we allowing that very system to have control of the debates?!?!?
Chris Wallace professionalism lmao. Yeah okay. I will definitely not be tuning into the next 2 debates. I know they'll turn off Trumps Mic a lot and that'll just tilt me.
Imagine this: Trump is tearing into Biden, and Biden claims that none of it is true, like he did last night. Then Trump reaches into his jacket and pulls out a stack of news articles and sources and begins to prove his point. They cut Trump’s microphone. Trump starts speaking much louder trying to get his voice to pick up on Biden’s mic. The moderators keep interrupting him during this and you can’t really hear anything from him.
Then Trump reaches into the other side of his jacket and pulls out a wireless microphone and starts angrily berating the moderators for trying such awful, underhanded tactics. All of the media cuts the feed except for RSBN. Trump wins every state.
Yes, but it's going to help trump, massively. Everyone now knows how much Biden lies, how trump dominates his opponents. Even if it was ugly it proved who the two are. Biden is weak and ineffectual and trump is the opposite.
By muting the mic during the others comments, it will keep Trump focused on the issues and accomplishments. Which will push independents massively toward trump.
This will work against them even more. They can't stop him from talking! Plus, normal people would see this as blatant manipulation. They are digging their own grave and then burrying themselves.
They haven't been shy about censoring him in the papers, the television MSM, and social media. Might as well go full measure and just censor him live in front of millions of Americans.
This will not play as well for them as they believe it will.
Imagine if they followed the rules and have each candidate two minutes followed by a three minute free for all like they LIED and SAID they would do. I'd be all for it because every single word Sleepy says is just digging a grave.
Yeah Biden didn’t look so hot after spending all of September in his basement eating pudding and having his diaper changed. While not medical doctor Jill did his campaigning for him.
Chris Wallace interrupted Trump 76 times. Biden around 15.
He interrupted Biden a few times of your tally when Biden had interrupted Trump, so it's actually fewer than 15.
Yup. Hard to get an exact number for Wallace interruptions of Biden.
Was Chris really interrupting Biden, or was he cutting off Joe's rambling to answer for him?
Good point.
Part of Wallace's Biden interruptions were due to Biden's stock "answers" that had little to do with the question.
Trump needs to bring a bullhorn.
Alex jones needs to walk out on stage and hand trump his bullhorn
Or a cattle prod.
That was for '16
KEK. Side of beef...
Yup. Will not be fair with the typical moderator.
Yup. I'd make them both sign off on the moderator.
I hope they do. I really ,really hope they do.
Let everyone see it. Once the people in charge of the mute button begin, they will be quick to use it over and over. The problem for them will become apparent that you can't stop the Trump train. It has NO brakes. This will result in nothing but positive results at the next stop. Election day.
Only if he makes a big show of putting on his mask first.
He talks loud enough that Biden's mic will pick it up anyways, and it will still achieve the goal of disrupting Biden's lying... talking... same thing.
If they do, I hope Trump has a smart plan. You don't understand the left, and this will shift the Overton window majorly what's going to happen the very next day is that they will suspend his Twitter account. Then TV channels will stop covering him
I suspect there's already a plan or two for that:
Two weeks later, Twitter's traffic drops to nothing but bots and blue-haired broke-asses, neither of which will attract ad dollars. Twitter goes the way of MySpace six months later.
Fox News, OANN, and Newsmax get exclusive interviews, nightly. CNN, MSNBC, etc told to go piss up a rope.
Press briefings replaced by something called 'intimate Q&A' (like the FDR Fireside chats, but with Q&A), featuring reporters from OANN, Fox News (if they behave), Newsmax, etc. Rest of MSM told to go piss up a rope - they can go read the releases on whitehouse.gov and settle for that.
Or he just sends his tweets via emergency broadcast to every phone in the country
This is the way!
I dare them. It won't win anybody over. It will result in public outcry from real people, which will outnumber the bots and shills.
Then the lawsuits will follow.
Then Trump will bring his own microphone.
They don't think Trump can talk loud enough to not need a microphone?
They simply still haven't learned in five long years....
"ATTENTION MR. GARRISON, I SAID HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO SUCK MY BALLS"
Holy shit, dude.
Silence the President of the United States of America?
Are they sure they want to try that?
Twitter has no issue with it and nothing happens to them.
Muting his mic will backfire, yuuugely. He will still say shit out loud, but the audience wont hear it. Biden will, however, and he will look even more demented arguing with some voice no one else can hear.
If they up n change things, they need drug tests as well, and earphone checks, and checks for polarized contacts so Biden can't read off screens.
I think this is the biggest problem for them.
And it only helps Trump. He can say whatever he wants, off the record, but as soon as Joe Biden breaks, he's done. He's going to lash out and look crazy as hell.
Do it, I want to see trump walk over and take the fake media's moderator's mic.

I'm sure the handpicked undecideds will be just like the ones at Joe's town hall.
Bring Ken Bone back.
This will only wake more people up to the total anti Trump bias in corporate media.
The harder they try to shut him up the more they show their true intentions.
Believe it or not there are a lot of low info/drive-by news types who still think the corporate media is trying to be fair. They are going to see the truth.
The Commission on Presidential Debates shouldn't exist.
League Refuses to "Help Perpetrate a Fraud"
I'll enjoy seeing what Trump campaign negotiates for this.
Maybe they should shut off Biden's earpiece.
They will try.
Fuck this shit. WE run the country now not these cucks. Why the fuck are we not in full control of the moderation? I’m sick of moderators being so blatantly left-wing biased. We voted Trump because we don’t trust “the system”, so why are we allowing that very system to have control of the debates?!?!?
All they needed was a competent moderator but they couldn't even get that right.
Please just take the moderators mic, what are they going to do? The President is untouchable, they lay a finger on him and SS is right there
Turning off Trumps mic would be a mistake. I'm pretty sure he would just walk over a grab Biden's mic.
Overly moderated. It's more of Now its your turn to to recite your rehearsed response to the topic. Let them openly debate.
And when they do, more people will be voting Trump.
Chris Wallace professionalism lmao. Yeah okay. I will definitely not be tuning into the next 2 debates. I know they'll turn off Trumps Mic a lot and that'll just tilt me.
The cameras will still show Sleepy Joe taking all of his mini naps
Trump should bring a megaphone and whip it out as soon as they mute him.
Yes, that is exactly what they have planned. Trump needs to just go on Joe Rogan rather than the debates I think.
The left cheat, I'm really beyond tired of it.
Imagine this: Trump is tearing into Biden, and Biden claims that none of it is true, like he did last night. Then Trump reaches into his jacket and pulls out a stack of news articles and sources and begins to prove his point. They cut Trump’s microphone.

Also. That's fine. Just leave joe's on so he drowns in his words of jibberish. I'm sure the mic cut off is mostly to save joe.
Trump should lip sync for the entire debate then.
Yes, but it's going to help trump, massively. Everyone now knows how much Biden lies, how trump dominates his opponents. Even if it was ugly it proved who the two are. Biden is weak and ineffectual and trump is the opposite.
By muting the mic during the others comments, it will keep Trump focused on the issues and accomplishments. Which will push independents massively toward trump.
He should bring a bluetooth speaker, pull out his phone and say "Mute This"
He should bring a bullhorn.
This will work against them even more. They can't stop him from talking! Plus, normal people would see this as blatant manipulation. They are digging their own grave and then burrying themselves.
They haven't been shy about censoring him in the papers, the television MSM, and social media. Might as well go full measure and just censor him live in front of millions of Americans.

There will won't be another debate. First one was with Fox for a reason
I hope he brings a megaphone
As long as there's one active mic at a time and they both get equal time it sounds fine.
That will in no fucking universe be the outcome. Trump's mic muted while Biden's stays open and moderator Evans Trump's every other word.
Yeah Biden didn’t look so hot after spending all of September in his basement eating pudding and having his diaper changed. While not medical doctor Jill did his campaigning for him.
