Debates panel says changes under consideration 'to ensure a more orderly discussion'
By Tal Axelrod - 09/30/20 01:45 PM EDT

Changes are under consideration for the next two debates between President Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden after their first meeting Tuesday night descended into chaos.

The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD), a bipartisan body that helps plan and execute the quadrennial meetings between presidential and vice presidential contenders, lamented that the messiness of the first debate made clear that changes need to be made to make the next event more “orderly.”

“The Commission on Presidential Debates sponsors televised debates for the benefit of the American electorate. Last night’s debate made clear that additional structure should be added to the format of the remaining debates to ensure a more orderly discussion of the issues. The CPD will be carefully considering the changes that it will adopt and will announce those measures shortly,” the group said in a statement.


“The Commission is grateful to Chris Wallace for the professionalism and skill he brought to last night’s debate and intends to ensure that additional tools to maintain order are in place for the remaining debates,” the group added, referring to Fox News host Chris Wallace, who struggled to keep the discussion on track Tuesday night.

Here is a novel idea. get a legitimate moderator that is not a DNC Shill.

Get journalists—especially the prima donnas—out of the moderating role altogether. They’re supposed to report the events, not to become part of them.

This doesn't bode well for any changes.

This is just boilerplate dreck that the corporation says right before they fire someone.
Saw this throughout my corporate life.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

I approve of this post!   Having said that where would one find a legitimate moderator?   From the ranks of liberal academia? The studios actors guild?

Remember when they tried to cut Reagan’s microphone during a 1980 GOP debate.

 â€œI’m paying for this microphone, Mr. Green!”

Check out the look on Reagan’s face:

Well right off the bat Joe Rogan or Dave Rubin.
