Prediction: Trump will violate his current gag order during the debate. It is hard to believe he would be jailed for something he said during the debate, so why not? As for the benefit of such buffoonery, anything to keep attention away from Biden’s forward-looking policy proposals may be to Donald’s benefit. ---

No. This is the latest “CNN is going to edit the debate to make Biden sound like he doesn’t have dementia and to make Trump look bad” conspiracy theory. ---

Comment on delay times made on a predominantly right-wing/Trumpist message board (copied over verbatim): “CNN will control the Delay times on the Broadcast ( minutes, not seconds), NOT allow ANY of the White House Correspondents to even be in the Studio to report what happens AND the CNN Moderation and Staff control the microphones.” They are clearly not happy with the fact that no media will be in the studio. I guess they don’t know that the media will be in the “spin room,” however, monitoring everything that happens in the debate. And even if journalists were in the studio, they wouldn’t be allowed to ask questions. ---

> [@Joey\_P](#): > > Not that we’ll be able to hear (well), but it’ll still be distracting to Biden. Biden has dealt with Trump before, I think he’ll be okay. His biggest problem will be just his general weakness with public speaking and propensity for gaffes. ---

Some of the rules: No opening statements 2 minute closing 2 minute answer 1 minute rebuttal 1 minute response Extra minute at moderator discretion 2 ad breaks no talking to advisors Wonder what they will do during the ad breaks. I have started the snack portion, pita chips and hummus. MSNBC just proved that their mics will pick up shouting. ---
