Wallace was a bad actor but I think the damage done through him manipulating the debate and the narrative will outweigh the fact that some people will recognize his biased performance.
The people likely to take issue with that aren't likely undecided voters or Biden voters.

Wallace conflated white supremacists and militia groups and then specifically asked Trump to tell them to stand down and when he did its a gotcha racist! moment.


I mean, that wasn't even a softball question. It was a t-ball question. Trump shot himself in the foot because he's a fucking moron. There should be a 20 second speech that he has memorized that he can just regurgitate and it will end up a non-issue. Alas, the man is a fool.

Was it hard to watch the debate while you licked the boots? Like, did they let you take them off or did you have to angle so you could see the tv?

Having seen some blurbs now, I gotta say I pity you guys. I mean, the choice is very simple but they both reek.

It is fun though, seeing a 90 year old debate a 4 year old.

But one is CLEARLY better than the other. How would your PM have handled that situation?

it will never be a non-issue in this country lol. what when the guy that wielded his political power to write a crime bill (his words) which ended up destroying tens of thousands of minority families gets to call anyone else a racist, and no one in the media counters him

Right. He could explicitly denounce white supremacy and the media would run with a both sides hoax for years.

Would that really be a bad thing?

A lot of people in the media call Biden racist for doing just that.
