Holt also failed to ask Clinton about her email scandals, Clinton Foundation pay-for-play schemes, her ailing health, Benghazi, her vote for the war in Iraq and her disastrous intervention in Libya which helped give rise to ISIS.<\/p>\n<p>A Reddit user <a href=\"http:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/The_Donald\/comments\/54oc80\/audience_has_laughed_4_times_so_far_for_clintons\/d83rn3i\">at r\/The_Donald<\/a> graciously typed out all of Lester Holt&#8217;s joint questions and much of his commentary. It&#8217;s remarkable seeing it all in one place.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Joint Questions:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why are you a better choice than your opponent to create the kinds of jobs that will put more money into the pockets of American works?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Secretary Clinton, you\u2019re calling for a tax increase on the wealthiest Americans. I\u2019d like you to further defend that. And, Mr. Trump, you\u2019re calling for tax cuts for the wealthy. I\u2019d like you to defend that.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">This is nonsense. Clinton has a lifetime of supporting tax raises for all Americans, Trump&#8217;s plan is a tax cut for all Americans, he&#8217;s actually going to raise taxes on rich hedge funders who are pouring money into Clinton&#8217;s war chest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.informationliberation.com\/files\/CozgkEdXEAAMg3B.jpg\" width=\"640\" border=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Race has been a big issue in this campaign, and one of you is going to have to bridge a very wide and bitter gap.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So how do you heal the divide?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our institutions are under cyber attack, and our secrets are being stolen. So my question is, who\u2019s behind it? And how do we fight it?&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">It&#8217;s impossible to know who is &#8220;behind&#8221; every cyber attack as hackers hide their tracks through sophisticated routing techniques. This is a stupid question meant only to give Hillary a chance to say &#8220;Muh Russia&#8221; or &#8220;Muh Putin.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I\u2019ll ask this to both of you. Tell us specifically how you would prevent homegrown attacks by American citizens.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">Note he says by &#8220;American citizens,&#8221; this is to prevent Trump from talking about his popular plans to close the borders to terrorists and give Clinton cover over the fact she wants to flood our nation with &#8220;refugees&#8221; who are currently committing terrorism all over Europe and wrecking havoc here in the USA.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;On nuclear weapons, President Obama reportedly considered changing the nation\u2019s longstanding policy on first use. Do you support the current policy?&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">There&#8217;s no way even 5% of people watching the debate had any idea what he&#8217;s even talking about here. Why not talk about the most important issue facing America &#8212; mass immigration &#8212; which is Trump&#8217;s strong suit and the most radical difference between the two candidates?<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Are you willing to accept the outcome as the will of the voters?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Trump Directed Commentary &amp; Questions:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You\u2019ve talked about creating 25 million jobs, and you\u2019ve promised to bring back millions of jobs for Americans. How are you going to bring back the industries that have left this country for cheaper labor overseas? How, specifically, are you going to tell American manufacturers that you have to come back?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr. Trump, we\u2019re talking about the burden that Americans have to pay, yet you have not released your tax returns. And the reason nominees have released their returns for decades is so that voters will know if their potential president owes money to \u2014 who he owes it to and any business conflicts. Don\u2019t Americans have a right to know if there are any conflicts of interest?&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">LOL! Better not mention Hillary Clinton&#8217;s &#8220;conflict of interest&#8221; selling access at the State Department.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The IRS says an audit of your taxes \u2014 you\u2019re perfectly free to release your taxes during an audit. And so the question, does the public\u2019s right to know outweigh your personal\u2026&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">Hillary was free to release the 33,000 emails she deleted.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Stop-and-frisk was ruled unconstitutional in New York, because it largely singled out black and Hispanic young men.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">These laws can always be bent to be made constitutional, Mayor De Blasio wasn&#8217;t interested in continuing the policy and failed to litigate in its favor, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/nyc-officials-tout-new-low-in-crime-but-homicide-rape-robbery-rose-1451959203\">cases of homicide, rape, and robbery are now rising<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The argument is that it\u2019s a form of racial profiling.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr. Trump, for five years, you perpetuated a false claim that the nation\u2019s first black president was not a natural-born citizen. You questioned his legitimacy. In the last couple of weeks, you acknowledged what most Americans have accepted for years: The president was born in the United States. Can you tell us what took you so long?&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">This was a perfect time for Holt to fact check Clinton for pushing the same claims during her run against Obama, instead he &#8220;fact checked&#8221; Trump.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I will let you respond. It\u2019s important. But I just want to get the answer here. The birth certificate was produced in 2011. You\u2019ve continued to tell the story and question the president\u2019s legitimacy in 2012, \u201913, \u201914, \u201915\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr. Trump, a lot of these are judgment questions. You had supported the war in Iraq before the invasion. Why is your judgment better than hers?&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">Trump, as a private citizen and real estate developer, made one flippant remark on Howard Stern&#8217;s show, then opposed the war for years before anyone else did. Hillary the war hawk voted for it as a politician whose job it was to be informed on the issues. It cost her during her run against Obama, yet now the lying media is trying to blame Trump for the war she supported.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Mr. Trump, this year Secretary Clinton became the first woman nominated for president by a major party. Earlier this month, you said she doesn\u2019t have, quote, &#8216;a presidential look.&#8217; She\u2019s standing here right now. What did you mean by that?&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">&#8220;Muh Female Prezidant!&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Clinton Directed Commentary &amp; Questions:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He also raised the issue of your e-mails. Do you want to respond to that?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Secretary Clinton, last week, you said we\u2019ve got to do everything possible to improve policing, to go right at implicit bias. Do you believe that police are implicitly biased against black people?&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"Arial16\" style=\"color: black; font-family: Georgia;\">Speaking of implicit bias, in a poll taken before the debate <a href=\"http:\/\/www.informationliberation.com\/?id=55556\">46% of Americans said they believed the moderators would help Clinton, while only 6% said they would help Trump<\/a>. Lester Holt&#8217;s extreme bias proves their suspicions were right.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Despite Holt&#8217;s bias, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.informationliberation.com\/?id=55557\">Trump won every major online poll taken after the debate<\/a>.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.informationliberation.com\/?id=55558\">http:\/\/www.informationliberation.com\/?id=55558<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chris Menahan InformationLiberation<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-50421","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50421","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=50421"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50421\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=50421"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=50421"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=50421"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
