Both parties are cutting out the nonpartisan committee thats been running debates for 30 years.
I don’t think people are remembering CNN was bought by a right-wing billionaire who flat out said his plan was to make CNN more like Faux News and fired every employee who spoke out against it.
Not that CNN was great before that, but this will be a total shitshow
I agree mostly. The one thing I really like is that there won’t be an audience. It really just turned into who can get the most applause. I know I’m naive but if this can be more like the Nixon/Kennedy debate, that would be so much better than what the presidential “debates” devolved into in recent years.
Let’s be real though, the nonpartisan committee has been doing a real shitty job running the debates in recent years. No order, bad questions, shitty crowds full of wooping plants, allowing candidates to shout over eachother and make faces or side comments, etc.
America doesn’t need a repeat of the last 2 election cycles.
It’s going to be a shit show…

Yeah, audience is dumb.
Both sides just cram in people that will cheer for their team and boo the other no matter what
We just need to see them think and talk without just reading off a teleprompter.
It’s less about the policy and more which geriatric candidate can string together sentences that make sense.
So hopefully we get that at least.

the commission on presidential debates was made by the two major parties because they wanted more control over the debates. Its always been a farce.
