As a former teacher, there are basic skills that can be used to get even the most recalcitrant child in line. As a former Hollywood flunkie, there are basic skills that can be used to coax even the most entitled prig to take direction. It isn’t that Trump does whatever he wants or says whatever he wants... he doesn’t. The one thing he wanted last night was to be the center of attention. California labor law is quite clear that all employees be given ten uninterrupted minutes of break time for every four hours worked. If I’m on my sixth minute of a break, and the boss asks me a work-related question, the clock is reset and I get ten minutes starting from whenever the boss is done talking to me. All Wallace had to do, the first time Trump interrupted Biden, was to reset Biden’s two minute clock. Give Biden more uninterrupted time. Make Biden the center of attention longer; Trump would have capitulated. The problem is not that Trump doesn’t play by the rules; it’s that nobody (especially the Democrats) makes him play by the rules. There were a dozen other different things Wallace could have done, and even a few things Biden could have done, but instead Trump was Trump. And America is all the worse because of it. > On Wed, Sep 30, 2020 at 7:19 AM Kevin M. <[email protected]> wrote: > >> >> >> On Wed, Sep 30, 2020 at 3:54 AM Doug Eastick <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> I watched it.
