In reply to the discussion: Moderator Chris Wallace criticized as Trump derails debate [View all]underpants
(196,842 posts)12. The right is going to be furious with him.
He asked Trump several tough questions to start segments. Real stuff thats part of Trumps horrific record. He fact checked him with the questions from what I saw.
Yes he lost control but theres no way to control someone like that. A screaming match wouldnt have been any better. Trump screwed up bad dont get me wrong and I think at some point Wallace realized there was little he could do.
Ive seen quite a few tweets already ripping Wallace. Its bizarro world there and tomorrow they will be told that it was an team attack on Trump someone losing it in public. Plus Trump was just repeating talk radio crap thats dogma to that world.

I sure didn't, which is why I didn't watch or listen. A mike kill switch could have enforced
