June and September Presidential debates called for

[George K]

Damn, no trap door or shock collar.

Otherwise, I'm good with these rules.

Disappointed that anti-Trump Tapper and Bash are the "moderators."

[89th]

Damn, it is RISKY to let Biden go 90 minutes without having any campaign staff being able to interact with him.

[Doctor Phibes]

I might actually watch these. I'd say there's a significant chance of something highly entertaining and/or excessively cringe-worthy occurring from either one or both of these characters.

[89th]

Definitely. It's sad they have to cut microphones, but such is the degraded political environment these days...normalized impoliteness.

Hence the need for trapdoors and shock collars.

Lord knows, we can't have one candidate call the other a "clown," or a "buffoon" to his face.

What I fear exactly - a world where people only behave because technology forces them to.

[Doctor Phibes]

It would possibly be more appropriate to have a naughty chair. They could electrify it for a repeat offence.

Tech evolution:

Sticks & stones —> whips —> guns —> tasers/shock collars —> surveillance tech (networked cameras) —> drugs/medications —> neural implants

[Mik]

Once again, the point sails right over your head.

greed to accept the rules and format of the debate, as outlined in letters sent to the campaigns by the network in May.

What about the drug tests?

What pro-Trump moderator would you like to be there?

3 obvious choices

I'd like to see Megyn Kelly or Bret Baier.

[jon-nyc]

They’d be good choices but Trump considers Megan Kelly as anti-Trump and Brett is probably prohibited from moonlighting with CNN.

[George K]

I was hesitant about Kelly as a choice, given the animus that seemed to exist back in 2016. Nevertheless, I think she's fair.
