So you’re quite happy to let Trump take all the beating while you sit back and watch the action.

NBC Asked to Correct Fake Account of Trump Reaction to Shooting
Posted on August 11, 2020

Today, the National Legal and Policy Center called upon NBC News and its White House Correspondent Kristen Welker to correct a blatantly false account of President Trump’s reaction yesterday at his press conference following the shooting that occurred near the White House, where he was escorted from the podium by Secret Service to the Oval Office.

When he returned several minutes later to the podium, there was a flurry of questions by the reporters as to what had occurred, whether he was escorted to the secure bunker in the White House, and other questions about the incident to which the president calmly responded with the basic information that was known to him.

One of the reporters, Kristen Welker, White House Correspondent for NBC News asked the following question at the 6:57 minute mark of the press conference:

Q. Kristen Welker: “Are you rattled at all by this Mr. President?”
A. President Trump: “I don’t know, do I seem rattled”?

Shortly after the press conference, Ms. Welker appeared on MSNBC to report about the shooting incident and said: “I asked the President if he was rattled by all of this, he said “of course,” but he also expressed his gratitude to the Secret Service.” ...

EXCERPT

KRISTEN WELKER (00:03:43): Now the President who had been escorted to the Oval Office said that the suspect was armed but he didn’t know what kind of weapon it was. I asked the President if he was rattled by all of this. He said, of course, but he also expressed his gratitude to the Secret Service. Lester.

LESTER HOLT (00:04:00): Yeah, a lot more drama in that news conference than anyone anticipated. All right. Kristen, thank you.

That is correct.

You’re okay with watching polite republican politicians giving everything away out of fear of taking a beating?

Trump is not going to debate any more

future debates should have a moderator chosen by each candidate at each debate.

Why is a moderator needed? Who moderated the Lincoln-Douglas debates? Please give me the moderators name

Future debates should never happen. What a pathetic joke on those who watch who are brain-impaired and have damaged logic & reasoning centers.

This simply proves she’s unfit to be a debate moderator; she’s not only biased, SHE KNOWS SHE’S BIASED.

Fortunately, the Wayback Machine has preserved her Tweets. Wouldnchaknowit, her Tweets are pro Biden and anti Trump: http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3892406/posts

Actually, I think she was quoting POTUS’s comment about Beto’s crazy arm-waving movements.

Okay, it does take a bit of intellect to be deceptive, duplicitous, devious, and to keep all the lies straight.

My dream debate composition:

1. Two moderators. One a confirmed pro-Trump moderator, (such as Levin, Rush or Hannity), the other a pro-Biden moderator, (such as any MSM talking heads). The moderators would ask questions of the candidate they are opposed to.

2. The moderators would each have 30 minutes to question the candidate, broken into 10 minute blocks, (which allows time for follow-up questions).

3. After the moderators ask their questions during their allotted 30 minutes the candidates each will have 15 minutes to ask their opponent questions without interruptions from the moderators. Basically a free for all.
