Isn’t Harris the one that wants the mics live? Trump’s handlers want them cut to reduce his stupidity/self-incrimination

Could also be that she’s looking for a chance to say “I’m speaking” again.

Orange turd says he doesn’t care, but cold is what he agreed to with a completely different candidate so Harris should be held to that.

Orange turd’s handlers do not want their manchild anywhere near a live mic.

I am positive that if trump pushes back, they will happily have closed mics, but then when he’s cut off, and complains, they will blame him.

I also thibinthey are just messing with him when she does not care.

As you said, that agreement was made with someone else, but they tried to hold Trump to the agreement of when and where, based on the same agreement. He just can’t call out double standards as its his only mode of action.

He may not always be near it. Remember him creepily walking behind Clinton during one of their debates.

Does nobody remember her 2020 debate with Pence?

She shut him down like the whining child he is.

Not sure what that has to do with the article.

Do you post the history of every news organization that lists pro-democrat articles as well?

You realize that this political news community is not only for posting pro-Democratic Party news, right? Were you under the impression that only pro-democratic party news was allowed?

This community celebrates diversity of thoughts and opinions.

If you feel that this news article, or that the news organization that it comes from, break the rules of this community, please contact the mods and let your thoughts be known.

Pointing out a source’s bias is completely reasonable. There’s literally a bot doing it using MBFC already. I already know that the Washington Examiner is a conservative rag, but others might not. It’s perfectly within bounds to include that in the discussion of the post.

If anything, it’s kind of weird how defensive you got when someone pointed it out.

Ok, and do you do that for the pro-democrat articles? I mean, since you are being so fair and all.

I’m not defensive, as I didn’t write the article, nor do I work for that news org.

It’s just that I noticed that you don’t do it for pro-democrat articles, but maybe i missed where you have.

So have you been doing it for the news orgs that skew pro-democrat bias? Because you do realize that media bias goes both directions, right? You know, since it’s “It’s perfectly within bounds to include that in the discussion” of posts and all.

And again, this is a political news community, not just a pro-democrat/pro-harris political community.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
