In reply to the discussion: My email to CNN [View all]Hugin

Trump didnt do that all on his own. He was enabled and it violated the rules that were agreed upon for this debate by both campaigns. Yet, there were crickets until the bellowing for President Biden to step down sounded. Even among those who should have Bidens back.
I have never observed such a repulsive display of journalistic opportunism, malfeasance, and cowardice. I hope for the sake of our democracy, I never see it again. The fish indeed, rots from the head.
At least we now know the medel of those who claim to be on our side.

I can't blame CNN. Biden was given every opportunity to rebut trump's BS. His responses just didn't have the snap
