Daniel Greenfield: Lester Holt lost the debate
2016-09-27
[FrontPageMagazine] There were concerns that Lester Holt would be this debate's Candy Crowley. He was a good deal worse.

Every question was shaped to frame a left-wing agenda. Holt hurled numerous attacks at Trump. He only passingly offered Hillary a chance to address her emails when Trump had already brought it up.

The debate was structurally biased and Holt biased it. He repeatedly argued with Trump about the facts. Despite the ban on fact-checking, Holt attempted to debate Trump on the Iraq War and on the birth certificate. It was a disgraceful and a biased performance. It is a reminder that the structure of the debates must be changed to prevent mainstream media from dominating it.

#4  I got a brief glimpse of 'Odd Job' (Diazepam Man) rushing in with Bill Clinton at the Hofstra parking facility. HRC soon emerged from the same vehicle, walking alone with security detail at a distance.

When they departed Hafstra, 'Odd Job' rushed out ahead of the Clinton's and disappeared inside the vehicle.

#3  The Trump campaign should have anticipated the line of questioning and prepared - they didn't. Then again Trump blamed his poor performance on his microphone. Lester you cunning basterd were those wire snips we saw sticking out of your pocket?

#2  It was like watching a tag team. Only with both allowed the ni the ring at a he same time..

As a commenter somewhere mentioned. You have to wonder if Holt was afraid that the f he didn't argue with Trump he might become despondent and shoot himself in the back of the head twice someday..

#1  Every question was shaped to frame a left-wing agenda.

On balance, HRC's smug confidence seems to betray an advance knowledge of Holt's questions. I would put nothing past these people.
