Too bad they let him continue to lie about the thing they just fact checked, let him talk beyond his allotted time, reapond when it wasn’t his turn, and shut down Harris the one time she tried to respond out of turn.
The moderators crossed an extremely low bar on fact checking last night, but did everything else the same way they always have.
It’s complicated, since the Harris campaign wanted him to have more opportunities to ramble, interrupt and get mad. They were very much counting on him being himself and comparing that to someone who can speak in coherent sentences without getting mad.
He shut her down twice. The one time was really over the line. But I loved the moderator saying there is no place in the USA that executing babies is legal. Wtf, 9 month abortions? Lol
All his talking didn’t help him at all. I don’t think the Harris side cared about him self-destroying his image and giving lots for the talk shows later to make fun of.
This works for some things, but it’s like the parable of the boiled toad: you need to push on the edges of truth, not come out guns blazing with “post-birth abortions”, “Immigrants eating family pets”, and “Democrats wanted Roe v Wade overturned also”

It gives him a platform. End of story. Every single minute he talks it allows for normalization.
It’s too late for that. We deal with him or he gets back in the White House.
