CNN to host first 'drive-in town hall' with Biden on Thursday (Drive-in Biden)
The Hill ^ | 09 17 2020 | Joe Concha

CNN says it will host a "drive-in town hall" with Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden on Thursday night, which the network calls "the latest adaptation to campaigning during the coronavirus pandemic."

The former vice president will take questions from voters in the parking lot of PNC Field in Moosic, Pa., starting at 8 p.m.

"Thirty-five cars will file into the parking lot, where a stage and monitors have been set up, and audience members and cars will be spaced out to comply with social distancing guidelines," said Kate Lunger, the vice president of CNN's special events team.

"There will be about 100 people in attendance at PNC Field, which is the home of the minor league baseball team the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders. The event location is a short drive from Biden's childhood home in Scranton, Pennsylvania," CNN's announcement adds.

Anchor Anderson Cooper will moderate.

LOL. The Biden townhall ratings should be in the toilet. Trump has a rally in wisconsin and Tucker has Steve Bannon on to discuss the virus whistleblower.

Let me guess, biden will use a teleprompter and the event will be pre-recorded and edited.

Is Joe going to be there, or just talk to the parking lot from his basement? Will he wave at the parking lot?

Will they all be given questions to ask?

Minor league stadium for a minor league candidate.

They should use a drive in so Joe can be on the giant screen, like the Apple 1984 commercial.

Each participant will get their question on a 3X5 index card with a folded $50 bill taped on the back...

....and a free Covid test with a nano-pharyngeal swab sample take in the drive through on camera!

...and, each car will be topped off with gas upon successful recitation of the planted question...

...Sleepy Joe will be fielding questions from his basement bunker in Delaware, pre-recording answers from his teleprompter in the morning after a Namenda enema and two lines of blow...

C’mon man...let’s move that thing up!

Rush’s “Sundown” theory will be put to the test tonight. These attendees are obviously handpicked, and so are their questions. I have no doubts that Biden is, at this very moment, practicing his responses to these questions. Let’s see if he can remember them without a teleprompter or in-ear microphone.

Not a chance, but they won't show it however you will see him reading.

All questions will be submitted beforehand so they can put the answers into his teleprompter.

I hear that they are remaking Weekend at Bernie’s that will be called Campaign at Biden’s.

Nah, he's probably taking a nap. Wants to conserve his "lucid" hours as much as possible.

This is utterly ridiculous. Will they have popcorn and sodas available?

These so-called Townhall’s do not have to be pre-recorded in order to be unfair. It does seem that the questions are pre-selected. When Trump held one with Stephanopoulos, it looked like Stephanopoulos had notes on his lap that were attacks ready for each of Trump’s answers. If Joe Biden has a so-called Townhall, the questions will probably be preselected but the moderator will be ready with notes to defend and protect Biden after his answers.

I am happy for Trump to hold a question session with any random group of Americans. He should not do any so-called town halls where the moderator gets to pre-select the questions.
