@zaryia:

No. I'll use any insult I prefer for these cowards. Thanks for the concern though.

Cool , it just sounds like cringe projection though. Enjoy that right wing term they came up with, to describe liberal men.

@zaryia:

How many times and networks? Was it really 3v1 or were you mad about the persons past employment? Seems like they are crying and bitching about nothing substantial.

The moderators almost always have stong left leanings. If its no big deal then agree to the terms.

Lol stop projecting... the left is the party of soyboys. The term was even made to describe left leaning men with low testosterone.

You have a point. Look at this photo of a low testosterone, affeminate Democratic congressman that's making the rounds in the current news cycle:

I usually try not to make fun of people with physical disabilities... but when they go low you go high...

Just remember.. this is your party.

I will, making the irony of them being whiny snowflakes over presidential debates all the more hilarious.

But did their questions overall have a strong left leaning? And how many moderators were far left in 2020?

GOP withdrawing from the CPD is interesting, but it does not mean no GOP candidate will participate in any future presidential debates. Pretty valid criticism towards the CPD for the late timing of the debates and the credibility of the moderator.

Was he making fun of the actual physical disability though? If that's the freakshow known as Madison Cawthorn, he deserves a lot of ridicule.

@zaryia: Steve Scully, he interned under biden

They tried to do a virtual debate and this guy was sending out never trumper tweets and was supposed to moderate the debate. CSPAN had to put him on leave because he originally said he never typed those tweets and he was hacked. Then later admitted he wasn't hacked.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/tv/2020/10/15/c-span-suspends-steve-scully-after-admits-lie-twitter-hack/3670507001/

"Hey trump come do this virtual debate with Biden and his old intern that is openly trashing you online lol"

and in 2016 we found out one moderator was giving Hillary questions the night before.

Id be done with the debates, what a mess

Cant take it seriously

Lol look at this shit. Why are you in denial over this? Almost all lean left. They are simply asking for common sense reform. Why do you hate this? If you feel so confident in your party positions you should want this. The left would NEVER agree to this. They only debate with a home field advantage. Biden can't even answer toss up questions from the media right now.

That's Madison Cawthorn. I posted it because you accused Democrats of being low testosterone "soyboys" which, like every other allegation the GOP throws out proves to be projection.

If you hadn't said anything of the sort it would have never been posted.

We shit on crazy Madison due to his crazy politics and assholery. Not because of his inability to use his legs and dick, no one bashed him on that.

Oddly enough the youtube you just linked had to use photoshopped pictures of McConnel. Meanwhile we can just use real pictures of crazy Madison dressed up far worse.

Cawthorn defined a woman as having “XX chromosomes, no tallywhacker.”

shouldn't be a part time crossdresser. It's ironic.

Apart from that,

  • Madison Cawthorn warns of ‘dangerous’ consequences if he is removed from ballot using Civil War-era ‘insurrection’ clause | The Independent
  • Madison Cawthorn doesn’t regret participating in Jan. 6 ‘Stop the Steal’ rally | The Hill
  • Rep. Madison Cawthorn promotes false election claims, warns of 'bloodshed' if fraud occurs in future (nbcnews.com)
  • Madison Cawthorn’s Racist Website - The Bulwark

They don't have to be bias and questioning , it's how the moderators let them respond.

I already showed you Steve Scully's history.

Again libs hate fair debates. You all try to pull this shit on any kind of debate no surprise you can't agree to common sense terms for the presidential debate.

Which debate in 2020 was unfair? Which did this? Be specific. Show the data. Sounds made up to me.

Kind of surprised Republicans are taking this route, then again their arguments and positions have always been shit, so maybe they're just saving themselves and everyone else's time.

Also, cue Silentchief with his Gish galloping and kettle logic.

The GOP wants a Russia like scenario. Any media that doesn't cater specifically to them are the enemy. Any political opponent is the enemy. Everyone is a potential traitor. Any vote against them is a fraud.

You're moving goal posts. As usual. Then try to excuse what you originally claimed wasn't happening. You get an L on this one. Not even a poll will help you.

Not surprising.

  1. The Republican party is getting increasingly detached from reality.
  2. 2 minutes is not long enough to meaningfully convey any idea. Just like with 140 character long twitter posts.
  3. In the republican debates. Trump not attending one of the debates was a winning move.
  4. Debates may be losing their relevance, Debates give politicians some much needed scrutiny. In the age of the internet, there are other ways to provide that. Among other things, fact checkers.
  5. Realpolitik is going out of favor.

Arguing with SilentChief is akin to playing chess with a pigeon, no matter how good you are, he is going to knock over the pieces, crap on the board and then go back to his flock proclaiming victory.

Surprised this hasn't been brought up yet. Seems Republicans won't be participating in future presidential debates.

If I had to guess, they can't compete on substantive policy that Democratic Party backs and has the support of a majority of voters, and instead the GOP hopes to win by hammering on social issues.

The Republican's not only have to debate their opponent but the moderator's as well. The debates are bullshit.

Maybe Republicans should not have a platform built on lies then. Beats playing victim all the time. The moderators will often call out lies, that is part of their job.

They only debate with a home field advantage.

Prove the questions were biased towards Biden. Got a study or something? Seems like made up feely feels.

Also, the notion that a debate moderator should have 0 political ideology leaning, is insanity, and fake. Does such a human exist?

You're moving goal posts. As usual. Then try to excuse what you originally claimed wasn't happening.

This never happened. They said there was bias in the 2020 debate moderation, no proof was given. The actual debates, not work history. Specific claims of 3vs1s, homefield "advantages", and prepared questions. I made no incorrect claims nor did I move any goal posts. I'm still stuck on asking them for proof since early on page one.

1. Did this happen in 2020.

2. How many networks did this in 2020?

They refused to answer the above correctly, and again ran to one 2016 occurrence. Which in no way gives a real explanation for this 2024 exit.

Later on, SilentChief's and SargentD's finally found one 2020 example which appears to be fake, Steve Scully did not moderate unless you can show otherwise.

@zaryia said:

Wait what debate was 3v1 from 2020? What network did this for Biden vs Trump? Also what network prepared questions for Democrats in 2020?

Zero evidence of 2020 debate moderation bias has been given. What goal posts are there to even move?

The GOP snowflakes wussed out of the 2024 debates, like a bunch of babies. There is no way around this until actual data of 2020 bias is provided.

Everyone can read this relatively small 2 page thread and see you just lied.

@zaryia: Steve Scully, he interned under biden

I can't find a video of his debate moderation of Trump vs. Biden.

Help me out, because it's the only example you and SilentChief were able to find of 2020 presidential debate moderation bias. So I'm very interested to see how it went.

They're not being honest. He did not moderate a debate. Trump cancelled one which he was supposed to moderate but it's disingenuous to complain about Scully as a moderator when it didn't happen.

He was picked, he should have never been picked.

Not surprising.

  1. The Republican party is getting increasingly detached from reality.
  2. 2 minutes is not long enough to meaningfully convey any idea. Just like with 140 character long twitter posts.
  3. In the republican debates. Trump not attending one of the debates was a winning move.
  4. Debates may be losing their relevance, Debates give politicians some much needed scrutiny. In the age of the internet, there are other ways to provide that. Among other things, fact checkers.
  5. Realpolitik is going out of favor.

Kind of surprised Republicans are taking this route, then again their arguments and positions have always been shit, so maybe they're just saving themselves and everyone else's time.

Also, cue Silentchief with his Gish galloping and kettle logic.

Arguing with SilentChief is akin to playing chess with a pigeon, no matter how good you are, he is going to knock over the pieces, crap on the board and then go back to his flock proclaiming victory.

Except you're not good. I literally feel the same way about you. But I'm talking to a guy who will argue against actual couse material.

If you honestly think moderators haven't leaned left over the past few years I don't know what to tell you. Regardless will see how popular liberal policy is come the midterms😆

Chris Wallace was picked and the left isn't whining.

A goalpost was never moved. I just wanted proof of 2020 moderation bias within the debates since page 1 lol....and I never changed that request.

I was given 1 fraudulent piece of evidence, which speaks volumes.

Sounds to me it's just the GOP being snowflakes.
