In reply to the discussion: Trump Signaling Withdrawal From Debates [View all]calimary
(81,220 posts)The last time wasn't much fun for him because real people were asking real questions from their own real lives and real experiences.
I think Wallace's problem is he's been in the Pox Noise bin for far too long. He treated trump with almost abnormal deference, and cut him WAY too much slack, until the last third of the debate, when he finally started - uh - "speaking up" "assert control" to be the damn debate moderator and do his damn job! His meekly mewling "Mr. President... Mr. President..." was NEVER gonna work. Because nobody tells donald what to do. Not even somebody from "trump TV."
I kept thinking - "you've been around trump THIS LONG, as a member of his "most-favored network", and you STILL haven't caught on about this guy yet? What would your father, Mike Wallace - the red-meat roaring lion of "60 Minutes", have said?
