I’m very curious how the debate between Harris and Trump. It’s not that I don’t think Harris isn’t smart/capable/etc. She’s a prosecutor FFS.
But that’s also an ordered environment. The judge would absolutely bring the (physical and metaphorical) hammer down to maintain order. All the lawyers operate in an SOP. We have laws.
None of that is relevant when facing a tsunami of unrelenting bullshit with ‘moderators’ who simply do not.

@octothorpe She hasn't been a prosecutor since 2010, so her history in the courtroom is…well, ancient history at this point. I'd stack her six years as AG, four as senator and four as VP as way more relevant when it comes to, as you put it, facing a tsunami of unrelenting bullshit.

@flargh I mean, maybe? It clearly didn’t work for Biden.
The larger issue I think is despite being like 20 years now into a group of people deciding to simply not play by the rules, those who are in a position to maintain and keep order still don’t really have an effective strategy (I’m talking about journalists/moderators/etc).
