The MSNBC discussion immediately after the debate gave Chris Wallace a pass on being a terrible moderator — they agreed he was in an impossible situation because Trump just ignored whatever was said and did as he pleased. Given that there was no way to cut off the mike, Chris’ hands were tied. How do you stop a bully when you have no way to physically restrain him? When there is no penalty for his rampaging? His supporters love this vicious tyrant — they would have loved the original Hitler too.

The Trump team isn’t likely to agree to a change in rules that included a microphone shutoff after 2 minutes.
