Anyone who watched the presidential debate hosted by ABC News on Tuesday knows that the moderators were biased and repeatedly fact-checked Trump while letting Kamala Harris's lies go unchallenged. We kind of expected that to happen, as the bias and conflicts of interests of the moderators and the network as a whole were well established.However, there are reports now that an ABC News whistleblower is about to come forward with evidence that Kamala was given sample questions before the debate...."I have just signed a non-disclosure agreement with the attorney of the whistleblower," the post claims. "The affidavit states how the Harris campaign was given sample question which were essentially the same questions that were given during the debate and separate assurances of fact checking Donald Trump and that she would NOT be fact checked. Accordingly, the affidavit states several other factors that were built into the debate to give Kamala a significant advantage."
This is no effort to alleviate Donald J. Trump, who has been involved in the most debates this side of Abraham Lincoln, of his responsibility for his less-than-great performance on September 10, but to explain the forces working against him. These forces include best friends, sorority sisters, and Hollywood. By now, you know that Trump could have calmly pointed his lightsaber at the dark lies, blown up Kamala Harris's overt whoppers, and moved on, but he didn't do that with regularity. He let Harris get under his skin with her deceit, verbal sleights, and non-answers. He let it get to him. It wasn't his night. The former president displayed irascibility in response to some wholly beside-the-point "questions" and answers by ABC's David Muir and his female sidekick. Now, I have watched David Muir a few times over the years. Having been a radio guy for decades, I've listened to and worked with people who are absolutely besotted with the sound of their own voices. David Muir is one of those guys. His studied, faux earnestness is a hoot to watch. "Listen to me," he seems to say, "while I look earnestly into a camera and speak words someone else wrote, with my deep baritone voice—that was so good in the Pippin summer stock let. me. tell. you."Muir's self-love could have made Tuesday night the most cringetastic event of the election cycle, second only to Joe Biden blubbering through the first debate, but for the selection of questions and the fact that only one candidate was required to answer them. Only one candidate was interrupted five times for "fact checks" in the middle of his exposition, which were not factual at all. Guess which candidate that was? Trump was on his own to fact-check Kamala Harris—if he got a chance, that is.Harris was allowed to lie with impunity, recite non-facts, and not participate in a "debate" to explain her positions. Her only tactic was to bait Trump. The game was afoot at the beginning when it was clear that the two moderators, Muir and some chick I've never heard of, asked Kamala Harris if the economy is better now than it was four years ago. They let her escape without answering. Now we know that "chick," Linsey Davis, was Kamala Harris's sorority sister.
