Also worked as an intern in Joe Bidens fucking office.

"Before coming to C-SPAN, Steve covered business, politics and local government as a reporter and anchor at WHEC-TV (NBC Affiliate) in Rochester, N.Y. Prior to that, he was an anchor and reporter at WSEE-TV in Erie, PA and WHBF-TV (CBS Affiliates) in Rock Island, Illinois. Steve taught several courses on the media & politics at St. John Fisher College & Nazareth College in Rochester, NY between 1988-90. While attending college, he served as an intern in the office of Delaware Sen. Joseph R. Biden, and later a staff assistant in Sen. Edward M. Kennedy’s communication office."

Trump should ABSOLUTELY call him out on this. In the first five minutes.

"So, Mr. Scully, before I get started here, I just wanted to let the audience know that you once served as an intern in Joe's Senate office. I thought that was something they might like to know about you. But proceed, I'm sure you won't be giving Joe any help."

That would be perfect.

Actually now that I think of it, I would have him leave off the last line. Just be understated. It'll be the first thing out of Trump's mouth so everyone will be paying very close attention.

"So, Mr. Scully, before I get started here, I just wanted to let the audience know that you once served as an intern in Joe's Senate office. I thought that was something they might like to know about you."

And then, right on to his first point. Everyone's mouth will be open.

He also should have called out Chris for being a democrat in front of everyone but...for whatever reason he doesn’t.

I don't think being a registered Democrat is as big a conflict of interest as having once worked for one of the candidates, though.

He won't. But that's good, because it allows Trump to surprise everyone and make it a story right before - or as - the debate happens.

That's actually a retweet so it isn't Scully...but it is the NYT's token "conservative" David Brooks.

If that isn't the definition of a conflict of interest, I don't know what is.

Who was the dipshit in the Trump campaign that agreed this moderator was ok?

They don't have a lot of choices. It's either "agree to this moderator" or "look like a pussy because you back out of the debate."

Do you think Biden shoved his fingers up his pussy, too?
