I hope CNN has back-up mics in case of malfunction.


Speaking of mics: I LOVE THIS

Donny can’t constantly interrupt Biden like he did in the 2020 debates.

Will their microphones be muted automatically when their time runs out? I hope so. If they can't understand the concept of a time limit how can they run a country.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent.

Sounds like a timed system, with indicator lights telling the candidates how much time is left. I kinda like the idea of a rundown clock, like the NBA shot clock.

I do think they should have a clock but the microphone needs to stop exactly when it gets to zero. In debates we constantly see people speaking beyond their time limit and I think that needs to stop.

They're going to use electronic timers that cut the power and mute the mikes.
