Comments for The challenges of the upcoming presidential debate | Eastern North Carolina Now

You must have been smoking something other than a tobacco product then, Little Bobbie. At the rally, Trump asked the crowd to go "peacefully and patrioticly protest" in front of the Capitol. Then he went back to the White House. When the rioting was instigated by others, he asked his supporters not to participate and to go home. You are delusional as usual, Bobbie.

BS, Bobbie. Your Trump Derangement Syndrome is kicking in. The Trump speech is videotaped and he did NOT do those things you claim. You are just lying. The only president who threatened to kill his vice president was Andrew Jackson making that threat against vice president John C. Calhoun during the South Carolina nullification crisis two hundred years ago.

Oh? You mean like Stacey Abrams, Al Gore, Hillary Clinton, and a host of other Democrats who claimed they really won?

You clearly know nothing about that Virginia primary, Bob. Both candidates are staunch conservatives, and there were lots of personality divisions among other GOP congressmen on who they supported. The one who got most involved in backing the challenge to Good was former Speaker McCarthy who had a vendetta against Good for being a key figure in dethroning him as Speaker. At the time of the Manhattan trial, both candidates went to court to show support for Trump. Trump ended up endorsing the challenger just days before the primary but had no other involvement. McCarthy on the other hand was heavily involved in the race, including raising money, for months. This was part of McCarthy's "revenge tour" against those who brought him down as Speaker. He tried to do the same to Nancy Mace in South Carolina, but she prevailed. Without McCarthy, the Virginia race would not have been competitive.

I do not know who is advising Trump on endorsements, but sometimes he is right on the money as to the best choice, and sometimes he isn't.

CNN has continuously swept the problems of illegal immigration under the rug and been supportive of an open border. They are highly unlikely to ask debate questions geared to the concerns of American citizens but instead will harp the positions of the elite. Illegal immigration is one of the top issues in the country and crooked CNN will spin its questions so as to try to keep real Aemricans in the dark on it.

Biden is a traitor who is deliberately selling out America with his open borders.
Trump is a patriot working hard to defend America and its interests against the invaders.

Yes, let the TWO CANDIDATES debate, without grandstanding politically biased "moderators" trying to be the center of attention and push thing to their favored candidate.

If one or both of the candidates are jacked up on drugs, the public should know it. A drug test is a great idea, and a recent poll shows the American public agrees.

For decades, the liberal moderators of presidential debates have been a real annoyance. One fair way to pick moderators would be to have two, one chosen by each of the candidates.
