RFK Jr. Breaks Down How Biased Debate Moderators Were Against Trump

Moderators failed to challenge “whoppers that the vice president was saying”
Following a somewhat stalemate debate against Kamala Harris, in which Donald Trump was only able to shine in moments, his campaign is noting how biased the ABC News moderators were, after they consistently ‘fact checked’ things Trump said but let absolute whopping falsehoods from Harris go unchallenged.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. led the charge for the Trump camp, noting “Unfortunately, we had moderators who were clearly biased, who were constantly fact-checking Donald Trump.”
He added, “None of these whoppers that the vice president was saying, and none of her failure to really explain that, answer that first question, that very, very critical first question. They simply sat there on the sidelines and allowed that to pass.”
The first question that Kennedy is referring to was Harris refusing to answer when asked if Americans are better off now, under nearly four years of the Biden-Harris administration, or if things were better under Trump.
Instead of answering the simple yes or no question, Harris babbled and made false claims about Trump’s economic policy, which went unchallenged.
This was the trend throughout the entire debate as co-moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis peppered Trump with follow-up questions and pushback, while letting Harris dodge questions altogether.
There were several other instances.
Of course, this debate was always going to go down like this. The Trump team knew it, and some are saying they should have come up with a more effective strategy to mitigate it.
Trump himself called it a “three-on-one rigged deal,” adding “I didn’t mind because frankly, I knew, I was pretty sure that that’s what they would do.”
He continued, “I thought it was terrible from the standpoint of ABC. They’re the most dishonest, in my opinion, the most dishonest news organisation — and that’s saying a lot because they’re all essentially really dishonest.”
“But I thought I did a great job. It was three-on-one, man, I thought I did a great job,” he concluded.
Trump also said that he is willing to do a debate on Fox News, so long as neither Bret Baier or Martha MacCallum are the moderators.
