Should Trump get muted if he starts lying during the debate? - Donald Trump Discussion

[–] luvthepros (644) 5 days ago

My understanding is the mute button is to be used when the debater's allotted time runs out and the debater continues to talk. I don't think the mute button is to be used just because one debater talks over the other. Trump is notorious for doing that so I hope they do mute him if he does that. Biden is more of a gentleman when he debates and doesn't stand on a bully pulpit like Trump does.

As an aside......I would much prefer to have two OTHER candidates on each side of the fence. Neither one of these two that we have to choose from is a viable candidate, IMHO.

Just mute him in general. No debates. Just ignore him. He doesn't need a platform after literally trying to coup the government, commiting billions in fraud and becoming a convicted criminal.

Just stop airing this demagogue and his cult will finally be able to think for themselves.

You are part of the cult. Imagine having faith in the 2020 election which went against all other incumbent elections in U.S. history.

[–] Yatzo (1543) 5 days ago

Imagine believing the 2020 election was stolen by mules, ninjas & pillows?
Cultish? Yes

[–] Branson26 (500) 5 days ago

Yes, for the election that took 4 days to 'fortify'.

That’s not the moderators job. They aren’t supposed debate and fact check the debaters. Biden is supposed to be the one doing that.

reply

[–] yatzo376 (7591) 5 days ago

If Biden's on the ball then this should be very entertaining considering Trump lies about every 30 seconds

reply

[–] tvfan (9936) 5 days ago

No, that would be the TDS fake media that lies about Trump every 30 seconds.

There's a difference between being uninformed or getting something wrong and "deliberate lies", which is what the MSM does every 30 seconds.

What exactly is your point? That it is acceptable for a president to tell lies to the public because the news media does?

reply

[–] tvfan (9936) 3 days ago

My point is that anyone can be uniformed or get something wrong. The media is known to deliberately lie.

reply

[–] Branson26 (500) 5 days ago

Lying machine? Yet no examples.

What's lower than Biden who made a fanciful promise to benefit his own campaign: At a campaign rally, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden told the crowd that if he is elected President, "we're going to cure cancer." CNN's Kate Bolduan presses Biden campaign co-chairman Rep. Cedric Richmond on Biden's promise.

Examples would have sufficed... like this:

Did Joe Biden Drop Out of the '88 Presidential Race After Admitting to Plagiarism?
"I did not intentionally move to mislead anybody. And I didn't. To this day I didn't."
Then-U.S. Sen. Joe Biden withdrew from the 1988 presidential race after admitting to plagiarism and exaggeration of his academic record.

True
This rating indicates that the primary elements of a claim are demonstrably true.

Remember when Biden, cited the cia to suport his lie that the laptop was russian disinformation?

That was quite a dozy of a lie.

Why did the cia support the lie of an out of office Biden? Wasn't that a form of mutiny?

[–] yatzo376 (7591) 5 days ago

Good thing Hunter Biden isn't running for President

reply

[–] Corbell (9612) 5 days ago

Biden lied, and backed he backed it up with the CIA.

How would the moderator had known that the out of office Biden was using his illegal control over the cia to get them to support his campaign/debating lie?

Or are you going to just admit that you only care about lies, or "lies" when it gives you an excuse to silence your enemies, and if it is your side, you are fine with lies, in fact, the more the better?

reply

[–] yatzo376 (7591) 4 days ago

No
If Biden lied about the worthless laptop then he should come clean, BUT what about Trumps 34.000 lies?!

reply

[–] Corbell (9612) 4 days ago

But, he won't come clean. And none of you will hold him to it, but you might shut down Trump to shut him up.

And Biden's lie, is vastly more serious than anything Trump has done.

The CIA and the FBI cooperated with big tech and big media to conduct an illegal operation AGAINST the American people and the American President.

Leftards like to talk shit about this or that being a "coup".

THe cia and the fbi using their power to try to control the election, and SUCCEEDING, is actually arguably, a real coup.

It is at least Mutiny.

[–] Yatzo (1543) 4 days ago

Nothing, nothing is more serious than the BIG LIE which resulted in J6.

[–] Corbell (9612) 4 days ago

One riot by a few hundred pissed of republicans with the only death one of the rioters is worse than the cia and the fbi going rogue together against the American people?

You don't really believe that.

reply

[–] Yatzo (1543) 4 days ago

Only the sane

reply

[–] Corbell (9612) 3 days ago

Only the sane what? Only the sane are more worried about a riot that lasted a couple hours years ago, than the fact that the cia and the fbi are rogue organizations that are hostile to the American people they are supposed to serve?

That seems... not right.

reply

[–] Yatzo (1543) 3 days ago

A coup to overthrow Democracy based on a lie by a failed former President is worse

reply

[–] Corbell (9612) 3 days ago

It's dumb to call it a coup. It's a dumb LIE at this point.

Even the corrupt and partisan FBI had to admit there was no coup.

It was a riot. A lot of us republicans are very angry about a lot of stuff. We had a riot.

ONE riot.

Meanwhile the top spy agency in the world and the top law enforcement agency in the country, are literaly out of control and willing to conduct joint operations AGAINST AMERICA.

And Biden seems to have been connected, or at least allied with them.
