Matt Lauer Will Moderate The First Forum Between Donald Trump And Hillary Clinton

Next week we have a hosted forum that will address some issues that both Hillary and Trump have opinions.

NBC and MSNBC are heavily involved, and it looks like somebody named Matt Lauer will moderate.

Lauer is connected to the Clinton Foundation and so are some others involved.

Makes people wonder if many (if not all) questions will be loaded in favor of the Clinton Candidate named Hillary.

Hmmm.

Note this not a face to face debate, it's a "one on one" style set up that keeps the candidates away from each other.


Matt Lauer Will Moderate The First Forum Between Donald Trump And Hillary Clinton

On Wednesday, Sept. 7, NBC News and MSNBC — along with the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America — will host the the Commander-in-Chief Forum in New York City.

It will be a one-hour forum where Clinton and Trump will answer questions about national security, military affairs and veterans issues in front of an audience mainly made up of members of the military. The two candidates will not be on the stage at the same time, but will instead go back to back.

It’s worth noting that Lauer is listed as a “notable past member” on the Clinton Global Initiative’s website — along with Anderson Cooper and Katie Couric.

"Somebody named Matt Lauer"? You don't know who Matt Lauer is?

I don't know.

Who is he, and why is he connected to Clinton's foundation? How are they going to maintain neutrality? Is he going be biased?

LOL

Of course I know.

But many people reading ATS may not be familiar with his capacities on the Global agendas.

We have many members from many countries.

Now what do YOU think about the possibility that questions may be fixed and loaded in favor of Hillary?

Matt Lauer is a cream-puff that makes Don Lemon look like the Walter Cronkite.

I expect the hard hitting questions to include "Do you think those cat video's on youtube are cute?"..

No doubt his moderating was one of the "Demands" Trump asked for before he would agree to Debate Hillary.

Hmmm, is right. Thats like having the referee call the fight from your corner.

For real? Double hmmm...

Add in hot lights , camera angles, and after commentary, its obviously going to favor Hillary, like the media does already.

Scripted debate questions in the closest thing to a press conference we'll ever get from her.

First explain how Lauer is connected, then explain why Donald Trump gave money to the Clinton Foundation and then continue with the nonsense (excuses in advance for trump)

Candy Crowley anyone?
Geez couldnt be more blatent if they had Goerge Stephanopoulos moderate....

a reply to: xuenchen

Good Grab, X! Just as we might have suspected, the
'mediation' is from a guy already in the tank for Hillary.
You can therefore expect the issues (and physical dy-
namic removed as well) to be as kind to only one of
the candidates. We all know by now which one.

I fully expect the people watching the debate will
also have amongst them only a few converting...
since those who know the fix is in versus those who
subliminally need the fix to be in are trenched up.

Tom:"...history of psychology." Right.
Let's call it what it is, institutionalized brainwashing
and political intimidation.

Some obvious reactions from the CF...

FLASHBACK: Matt Lauer Was Listed as a ‘Notable Member’ of Clinton Foundation Initiative

NBC’s Matt Lauer, who NBC Universal recently announced would moderate the upcoming Commander-in-Chief Forum with Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, was once listed as a “notable member” of the Clinton Global Initiative, the leadership arm of the Clinton Foundation.

The page on the Clinton Foundation website that listed several other prominent journalists as members as well has since been deleted. But Mediaite screencapped the page when it was first reported on back in 2015.

Scrub-a-dub-dub in action.

Already exposed !!!!!!!!!!!

No doubt another of the Demands that Trump required before agreeing to debate Hillary. Did he also demand to be able to use tele-prompters and ear pieces?

What a joke

a reply to: Indigo5

Yes, because that sounds very much like Trump.

Because he's the one answering only scripted questions from his journalists, and giving 10 minutes speeches at best, while refusing to do a press conference in over 270 days.

Let's get real here, please.

a reply to: Indigo5

Excellent speculation !!

What about the possibility of loaded and fixed questions ?

Who gets the advantage from that?

WOW...A journalist being associated with a Charitable Org!! Looks menacing!

Now explain this..

Trump gave at least $100K to Clinton Foundation

He is in the tank for Clinton!!!

Trump...Cuz he is one part ADD, one part Turrets and no parts knowledge.

And of course it's one of the most brazen and obvious Clinton shills in the media.

The same thing I think about this thread. Right wing fear mongering.

Matt Lauer's interview with Trump in June

Hard hitting questions like:

"You guys have flown on this plane all across the country, did this flight feel different?"

"Is it surreal to finally be here?"

"Did you practice the speech on the plane?"

To Melania:
"Are you nervous?..It would be OK to be nervous"

"What do you want to tell the delegates that they haven't learned already about your husband?"

Followed with "Good, that was good!"

* Literally...those were his questions...Lauer was picked by Trump to interview him before the RNC...this was Trump's "Demand" for moderator.
