Lester and Candy, sitting in a tree ...

Lester Holt: The Third Debater? At tonight’s debate, Donald Trump faced off not just against Hillary Clinton, but against moderator Lester Holt. The game of two-on-one saw Holt (this years Candy Crowley - me) ask no questions about:     * Hillary’s emails     * Benghazi     * The Clinton Foundation While ignoring these issues, Holt grilled Trump on stop-and-frisk, the birther story, his comments about women, his many bankruptcies, why he hasn’t released his tax returns — and a host of other issues the media sees as unfriendly to the Republican candidate. Holt also repeatedly attempted to “fact check” on some of Trump’s positions, such as his claim to have opposed the Iraq War from the beginning. Holt interrupted Trump several times to interject, but rarely succeeded (and may have come across as weak and impotent). [FULL] This quick analysis naturally mirrors my own.  Trump showed marvelous self restraint, IMO, for not slapping both of them.  When Hillary brazenly asked Trump what he was afraid of by not releasing his tax reports I was jumping all over the room. "JFC!  The first thing she and Slick did as co-president was assign Vince Forster the job of cleaning up unpaid tax and unreported income from previous years. And, JFC!  The Clinton Foundation fraud!." Your reputation set in stone Lester. DNC Shill.
