As to not having the mics cut as a tactic so that Trump’s bullying idiocy is on full display, I disagree. The idea that his ape-like behaviour is somehow a secret after nine years of his bullshit schtick is somewhat doubtful.

For comparison purposes, you need Harris’ intelligent and reasoned argument immediately followed by Trump’s bellowing laundry list of personal gripes, off-mark name calling, ridiculous lies and tangential remarks about sharks, electric cars and Hannibal Lector…

Then, once again, to be sharply contrasted by Harris’ calm and normal description of her politics.

As fascinating as it to watch this Buffoon yelling and screaming on stage, no one will hear what Harris has to say and there will be plenty watching her for the first time waiting to hear.

Edit: Turns out that the Harris campaign wants live mics, so what do I know?
