Id put money on it. Hell pivot from any question he doesnt want to answer (i.e. any non tongue bath question) to railing against Twitter and FB taking it down, to conspiracy theories, to Hillarys emails too...I have not an iota of faith in Savannah I drew the short straw Guthrie being able to handle him.

(15,325 posts)And why NBC gave Trump the "town hall" with a selected audience. He's free to ramble unhinged & untethered all night long....
They timed it this way.

This was pure dumbassery. Completely dispelling any sort of neutrality on the part of NBC. It is now only a division of Trump Co. Along with Fox News, ONN, Newsmax, and QAnon.
Two guesses who Il Dorito has been burning up the phone lines with for the past few days.

It goes back to Mary Trump describing uncle Donald's penchant for domination.
Nobody upstages DJT.
And here we are. Again.

(33,162 posts)The first law being nobody tells the Crockwork Orange what to do.
The second law is anything the Marmalade COVID Dispensary touches inevitably inextricably goes to crap.
However, these things take time to ferment and we're literally days away from the General Election with some millions of people already having voted.
It would seem to be a no brainer for NBC to stay away from it because this is going to leave a candy corn skid mark all over any reputation they may have had for impartial reporting. Should Biden/Harris win the election, I would certainly suggest they require a deeper kowtow from anything NBC for access in the beginnings of their administration. Two can and should play these games since the deck has been stacked that way.

(15,325 posts)Man, there's so much truth in that one line .
It'll be like the last debate, only Trump will be talking over Joe from another network. By himself. Trump will be just as big a belligerant lunatic wherever Biden is standing.
Hope The Lincoln Project & all those great anti-Trump ad writers we've been applauding bought the airtime during Trump & Biden's TH's.
