    She wants them hot the whole time. T****s staffers want them off.

    “We have told ABC and other networks seeking to host a possible October debate that we believe both candidates’ mics should be live throughout the full broadcast,” Brian Fallon, the Harris campaign’s senior adviser for communications, tells POLITICO. “Our understanding is that Trump’s handlers prefer the muted microphone because they don’t think their candidate can act presidential for 90 minutes on his own. We suspect Trump’s team has not even told their boss about this dispute because it would be too embarrassing to admit they don’t think he can handle himself against Vice President Harris without the benefit of a mute button.”

      The urge to cough “bullshit” at everything trump say will be hard.

      I’m not sure it’s a trade off for him babbling over Harris the whole time. We already know he’s unpresidential. I kinda thought the were calling his bluff so he could skip the debate, because there’s really no point having a debate with a liar.
