I heard Rush say that and I was shaking my head. Can’t believe Rush would get along with this toad.

Rush should retire.
I like him but he fell for the Globalist story back in the 90’s and didn’t realize he was wrong until probably 2017.

He also has a track record of hob-nobbing with reporters as he thinks it keeps him with the in croud.

Wallace has always been an Anti-Trumper. I am very disappointed in Fox for promoting him. I quit watching him a long time ago and was sorry to hear he was “moderating” the first debate. He is just a chip off the old block: AKA :Liberal Daddy Mike Wallace. I don’t know why Fox keeps promoting him, but unless they ditch him soon, they may lose another Fox loyalist.

Wallace did precisely what the Murd bro’s and all the anti-American, anti-God, left-wing, global socialists wanted.

Fox polling is designed for the same.

Same as 2016.

I don’t like Chris Wallace, and agree that Trump was debating 2 people, but if he thinks Wallace’s performance is the most embarrassing, wait till the debates shift to the liberal networks.

Here is my recap of Chris Wallace's performance at the infamous Republican Primary Debate on the Fox New Channel in August 2015:


This is what the Fox moderators stole from the candidates and the viewers on Thursday night. They usurped the role of rebuttal and made the candidates individually argue their positions with themselves instead of the other candidates. And then knowing this was going to be the format, they staged meaningless personal questions that had no viable rebuttal opportunities from the other candidates.

What candidate is going to interject in the middle of a crude mysogeny question? What candidate is going to rebut an "any word from God" question? What candidate is going to jump into Megyn Kelly's question to Jeb Bush that "your brother's war was a mistake" or the Bush dynasty question?

There were a half-dozen questions where one candidate was asked to attack another candidate.

With questions like that, how can we truly see the positions of each candidate? When the questions are lowball and undeserving of the stature of Governors, Senators, and business leaders, then why should we take seriously the fallout from such a farce.

Apparently, Wallace learned nothing from that experience.

I didn’t watch the debates; my mind was made up a year ago or more.
But I do eavesdrop. The consensus at the restaurant where I ate lunch today was that they didn’t like the behavior of any of the debaters - Biden, Trump, or Wallace.

A bit off topic...

On the debate thread last night, I commented on how "glassy black" Biden's eyes looked.

Now James Woods tweets...

So why was blue-eyed Joe Biden wearing black contact lenses?

Rush is defending Wallace just because Wallace treating him well when interviewing him.

Many of us used to be like that. Getting along with the opposition. Seems so quaint and now long out of fashion.

Rush can count on one hand the leftist interviewers and hosts who have been somewhat tolerant of him, and have fingers left over, hopefully a middle one to flash to the hundreds of rude ones.

I listened to the Radio Hall of Fame induction ceremony for Rush that his big stations carried years ago. He brought his family and was humbly excited and nervous.

When the leftist middle aged hag (some has-been star) read the accomplishments she stopped and said "Wait. Do I have to read these words. I don't believe them. Do I have to go on reading this?"

Outrageous. So rude and nasty.

Why do we need a “Moderator” at all??

Why not instead have a computer-generated voice that reads RANDOM questions and the response is randomly directed to either candidate. The candidates’ responses for the first minute are done without interruptions with the opposing candidate’s mike is turned off to disable interruptions.

Then after the first minute, it’s a free for all for the next 5 or so minutes. No intervention by a moderator. Let them fight.

Then a bell rings and both their microphones are turned off after 5 seconds (to allow sentences to be finished) and they move on to the next random computer-generated topic.

Special contacts....

Wow. That Sci-Fi stuff is here. Biden will say “What next? A phone without a line or a booth? Self-turning stacks of 45rpm records so you don’t have to get up to turn them over?”

'Well, first of all, I guess I'm debating you, not him,' Trump said to Chris Wallace during Tuesday's 2020 presidential debate.

Brit Hume claimed that Wallace was the best moderator who ever lived? Maybe Brit should stay on the island and fish for the rest of his days?

Wallace easily knocked Candy Crowley out of first place on the Most Biased Moderators list. As the new “champion” Wallace’s sordid performance will be tough to surpass. He could hold “the title” decades.

Of course it was. Fox news should fire Wallace.

*************

They won’t. He’ll stick around so the Stupid GOP can have him back to moderate the next debates four years from now. they’ll never learn.

Chris Wallace should have refused the invitation to be moderator...no explanation is needed. When the former VP refused to “discuss” a question put to him...a normal moderator would have given the question to the POTUS...Wallace did not, he went on to the next question leaving an angry and frustrated POTUS...not good at all. The “debate” squabble went down hill............
