    I hope the strategy includes addressing and/or posting/streaming small, digestible clips for people who have 0 attention span and for those who will clearly not watch the debate at all.

      I would pay good money if CNN brought in that local news anchor and debate moderator from colorado. My man was fucking savage and to the point. No Nonsense hardcore moderator. I would make a point to watch the debates if they were moderated by someone like him. Bobo and all the other candidates looked like deer in the Headlights. Fucking clowns. Just as they should. As long as he did it to Democrats as well when they deserved it I’m completely on board.

          Yes that’s the guy! If anyone hasn’t seen the video. Even if you generally hate debates. Even if you generally can’t stand to hear republicans. It’s absolutely riveting. I don’t think most people have actually seen what a real debate looks like. And that’s by design. If they were all like that. I think things would be a damn sight better. They’re also used to being pampered, going overtime, and talking over each other. He just cuts them the fuck off as it should be. In the middle of trying to answer questions other than the ones he asked.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The Biden campaign is looking to present the debate as “two distinct visions for the future,” driving a contrast between the presumptive nominees in a razor-thin race less than five months before voters cast ballots.

    Tyler laid out key issues where Trump “continues to pose the most extreme threat,” pointing to the end of Roe v. Wade, attacks on democracy and economic plans.

    An NBC News poll from April found that a plurality of registered voters — 23% —  said that inflation and the cost of living was the most important issue facing the country.

    Biden is spending several days at Camp David preparing for Thursday’s debate, including going toe-to-toe with his personal lawyer Bob Bauer, who is role-playing as Trump.

    Bauer is joined by a slew of Biden confidants who are working to prepare the president ahead of the debate, including former chief of staff Ron Klain, campaign chair Jennifer O’Malley Dillon and White House senior adviser Anita Dunn.

    A campaign official also said that Trump’s rallies and interviews demonstrate “elite stamina,” adding that the former president “does not need to be programmed by staff” like Biden.
