1. I'd prefer the mic be open

so that we can hear him ranting and swearing when it's not his turn to speak. But, even with a muted mic I have absolute faith that the true essence of Trump will still shine through.

2. He'd talk over Kamala constantly

Like he did with Joe in 2020. I really think closed favors Kamala as opposed to a food fight.

3. Why did the Harris campaign want it open then?

I guess they got it wrong too

5. They may have been messing with him, or thought she could do some real time fact checking

Either way I'm confident.

6. As am I.

7. And when he did that to Joe Biden in 2020, he was largely judged as

having lost the debate--- and just being a total asshole and 'un-presidential',
as well. His constant interuptions did not help him-- and most people were sympathetic to Joe
when he countered 'why don't you shut up, man!'

I supported the closed mics for the last debate,
but for Kamala I would have preferred that they remain open so Trump could be Trump.

4. What I want is a debate where whatever the rules are, they are followed.

I want debate monitors who make sure the rules are rules.

I don’t think it’s possible that trump will adhere anyway. Making it a useless annoyance.
