There will be debates “moderated” by leftists....our candidates need to be vetted properly before they get the truly unfair treatment from the left.

Megun Kelly’s questions to Trump were coming sooner or later. She did him a favor.

The moderators have every right to grill the candidates on the issues and their positions. This crap from MK wasn’t that - it was pure “gotcha” and personal. It had no place in the debate. She did herself NO favors, is more like it.

——She did him a favor.——

That thought can be extrapolated into the reality of the Fox News plan for the whole show. The mods probed the weaknesses of all the candidates. By questioning the weak points the candidates were allowed to give rebuttal to the common unfavorable points constantly brought up against them.

Fox was devils advocate. The mods did their homework finding the weak points and bringing them unequivocally to the surface . Their questions showed the depth of their planning.

The debate was not designed nor carried out to be between the candidates. The debate was between the candidates and the mods.

***
Your verb tense is incorrect here, as you said “will be” about “debates” that have already occurred. I saw more than one leftist moderating the two FOX debates last night.
