This is crazy that the debate is being handled like this. No audience, no media in the building, ability to cut mics, delayed before transmission so only live in the building.

The mic stuff is stupid but CNN can now mute and cut away to Biden or the moderators any time they don't like what Trump is saying. The delay will give them the ability to hide anything they want. The mic mute doesn't stop Trump from talking and affecting Biden, so it only is done for TV.

There is really no way to prove what we see actually happened. The conspiracy side will have a field day with this. With all the AI and VR stuff, CNN could switch to that or even have prerecorded Biden answers from his week of practice. It would be Trump's word vs the media if Trump says anything was different than what was aired.

The implemented the "muting the mike when it's not your turn" because last time they debated, the two of them interrupted each other so many times, it was hard to follow.  It wound up being two people trying to talk over each other, which was totally worthless.
