And Here is the Best Moment of the Presidential Debate

Without question, Lester Holt was in the tank for Clinton. That’s not bias speaking, for I couldn’t give two shits about the victor. But where were the questions about the Clinton Foundation and her ties to the women hating regime of Saudi Arabia , the DNC Leaks, Benghazi, her health records, her foreign policy disasters and of course the emails?

Via Heat street:

While ignoring these issues, Holt grilled Trump on stop-and-frisk, the birther story, his comments about women, his many bankruptcies, why he hasn’t released his tax returns — and a host of other issues the media sees as unfriendly to the Republican candidate.

Holt also repeatedly attempted to “fact check” on some of Trump’s positions, such as his claim to have opposed the Iraq War from the beginning. Holt interrupted Trump several times to interject, but rarely succeeded (and may have come across as weak and impotent).

So here was the most transparent and telling moment of the night, like a boss.

    trump threw out the main stream media jab as he caught on to Holts bias. most liberals mind washed by schools and earning six figures just dont experience enough pain to wake from the ideal illusions.

    whats wild is that trump who is a billionaire and has eternally hot wife, has enough compassion to know how fuck shit it is for other people. while killary things are hunky dory and ask people to buy her book at airport shops.

      It’s no wonder how Trump has cornered the uneducated white males of America. You are made for each other.

        That’s smug cascadia. The so called uneducated America built this country and fought its wars.

          Nice retort, for as much cheering for war and soldiers as conservatives do, it’s a wonder why they’re always underfunding Veterans Affairs though.
          Don’t get high and mighty unless you’re willing to see through the consequence of action till the (often) bitter end.

          The deplorables are desperately trying one last stand to save “their” country.

    Oh, we’re regurgitating the conservative lie under the cloak of objectivity, got it.

    Truth is…
    the optics of this are far worse than God-hating conservatives want you to believe. Trump walked away and then WENT BACK TO SHAKE LESTER’S HAND.

    His walk of attrition ended when he inserted his tiny tiny pillowy soft hand into Lester’s leathery palm, and then shook Lester’s hand with the grasp of a jellyfish lying on the beach.

    Trump then whispered a question into Lester’s ear-
    “Seriously, why doesn’t anyone call Sean Hannity?”

    The media will always question how a rich conservative made their money, they will never question how a liberal got their millions.

    Trump got tossed off his game by an old lady in a red pantsuit. He couldn’t even handle the “like me” Hillary. Wait until he has to deal with the vicious Hillary. That was low-energy Trump on display. Can’t hold it together for more than 10 minutes.

    Once it came out that Lester was a registered Republican he would have looked biased… so he “fixed this” by coming down slightly harder on Trump.
    He interrupted Trump more than Hillary as well.

    I don’t think this was because he had it out for Trump or was in Clinton’s camp, rather self interest at work. He wants to believe he’s unbiased, and also make sure that as a journalist he’s in demand with as many networks as possible, which otherwise would have been more difficult now that information has come out about him being a registered Republican.

      Because Trump is incapable of shutting his mouth and opening his ears. You seriously didn’t watch, did you?

    More like a baby than a boss — Holt, the microphone, anybody and anything but himself is to blame.

    Mr. Trump says he made >$600m last year and paid no taxes because he is ‘smart.’

    Skipped military service because his foot hurt.

    Yet he still feels like a victim. Pop psychology says it’s that deep core of resentment and insecurity that drives him. Daddy gave him $14m but didn’t hug him enough. Poor dear.
