Why oh why are these moderators not forced to have party registration indications so everyone knows their bias? The first question should be addressed to tbe moderators. Who did you vote for in the last 3 elections?

Quote from Elaine Quijano....

“It’s an honor to be chosen to help bring the issues of this critical election to the public,” said Quijano.

Another liberal SJW “journalist” who plans to insert their opinions and views into the debate...

"Mr. Trump - do you think that neo-Nazis support you because you hate black people, or because you hate Hispanics?"

"Secretary Clinton - out of all the dessert recipes that were on your private server, which is your favorite, and why?"

Every one of them are Libs. Trump needs to protest and suggest replacements.

Trump can easily handle any of these schlubs.

The RNC however, cannot. That is why they are always bowing to the msm liberal elite.

Does anyone think Hillary has the physical stamina to make it to four debates?

What about judges, lawyers, academics, law enforcement, mayors, governors?

That's a big pool of establishment liberals you'd have to draw from if one were make a random selection.

Would "law enforcement" include BATF agents, FBI directors who hesitate to refer criminal charges on the privileged class and corrupt state and federal prosecutors?

If you were to add "clergy" to your list, odds of selecting a conservative might improve, but only slightly.

So so, but better than the Republican primary debates.

Except for Motorboat Wallace. “But but but ...”

Team Clinton would be elated if Trump boycotted and didn’t show up.

It sure is. Still, on the whole not as liberal as the group comprising newsreaders. Leaders in the private sector are another possibility, and one could even look outside the country for informed debate moderators.

There are other ways to shake up the system, have the questions submitted by the candidates.

The current arrangement is a joke, it elevates the propaganda ministry.

Screw Team Clinton and their sycophants in the media...

Trump should demand a fair debate or do not do them...
