Biden will appear in an ABC town hall, and the Orange Buffoon has managed to beg, bribe or blackmail his way into a town hall on NBC. Both events are scheduled for 8 p.m. ET.
The town hall is at 8 PM.
The earlier town hall that Trump did solo was pretty bad for him as I recall, he can’t treat voters like he does reporters or Biden. If he does he’ll just look like a jerk
Hopefully some folks challenge him a bit.
Trump’s will probably get higher combined ratings across MSNBC, NBC, etc, and all we’ll hear after from Trump is how he beat Biden in the ratings. We don’t have cable, but I’ll make sure to stream Biden via youtube at least (not sure if streaming will get counted).
As far as I can tell a great many voters like being treated like idiots. To wit their loyalty to Trump.
A little odd that no details of this PCR test (one only?) and dates not independently released, after NBC supposedly insisted “Trump produced a Covid-19 test showing he is not contagious”.
I trust Fauci and Lane, but let’s face it: the WH as fast and loose with throwing out names and results out of context.
So NBC rewards an obese, mentally unstable, egotistical bully for throwing a temper Trumptum with 90 minutes of free hair time.
Be still my heart. (insert sarcasm symbol here).
Is their an actual test for whether someone is contagious? One that certifies no one coming in contact with a previously infected person has no chance at all of contracting the disease from them now?
“I’ve heard from over a dozen NBC, MSNBC, and CNBC sources (talent and staff) and the frustration with and anger toward their employer for scheduling a town hall against Biden is palpable.”

1 ) i told someone that i wouldn’t be surprised if Fauci lent his name to this. I also wouldn’t be surprised if we learned that Fauci was lied to, regarding his signature.
2 ) re: Fauci, today is 10/14/20 and now would be a great time for him to say adieu to that sh-- show.
The last Trump townhall with Stephanopolous was a disaster. He will walk all over Savannah Guthrie and audience members. Hunter Biden will be his answer to every question posed. He will lie throughout the event. I will not watch. NBC is doing a disservice to voters.
That’s exactly how I see it too. I’m going to be really interested to hear what the evening MSNBC hosts have to say about this one. I imagine that everyone from Nicolle Wallace to even Brian Williams are pretty ticked off about this one. It sounds like yet another idiotic Chuck Todd capitulation for access.
Seems watching a train wreck never gets old.
Thursday night lineup:
Trump on NBC.
Biden on ABC.
Me: with my nose in a book.
And don’t get me started about the lies , which is all he will do
Who’s moderating Hugh Hewitt?
“Imma have my own town hall, with hookers and blow!”
and appear seated near Joe in the town hall… 'cause Joe asks the experts.
I’m taking bets on how hot Chris Hayes will be as his show airs in the same time slot over on MNSBC. I doubt he’ll want to be pre-empted for this. He can be pretty darned forthright when he wants to.
