CNN’s Jake Tapper compared former President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler, and Dana Bash’s ex-husband signed onto the infamous letter that dismissed Hunter Biden’s laptop as Russian disinformation ahead of the 2020 election. Yet both of these so-called journalists are supposed to moderate a fair presidential debate this Thursday.
CNN’s long history of anti-Trump bias will undoubtedly permeate the moderators’ line of questioning in favor of President Joe Biden, but here are five questions the moderators would ask Biden if they wanted to host a truly fair debate.
1) “When you took office, inflation was 1.4 percent. Under your leadership, inflation hit 9 percent. Why do you blame Trump for that?”
Biden has consistently lied about his record on inflation, telling Yahoo Finance in May that inflation was “at 9 percent” when he entered office. Inflation was actually at 1.4 percent when he took office and did not reach 9.1 percent until 2022, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
2) “What would you do differently in the next four years to bring down inflation that you could not have done these past four years?”
These past four years, Biden has done nothing but spend, spend, spend. Under Biden, Congress passed a $1.2 trillion infrastructure package in 2021, with a focus on repairing roads and bridges. Notably, the Francis Scott Key bridge collapsed earlier this year after a boat struck one of the supporting columns, killing six members of the crew that were working on the bridge at the time
