It was almost as if moderator Martha Raddatz wanted to debate Donald Trump more than Hillary Clinton did.
The RNC counted 26 interruptions of Trump by the moderators during Sunday’s second presidential debate, compared to just 12 of Clinton, Townhall reports.
Trump’s campaign produced a video montage of the numerous disruptions by the moderators.
At one point, Raddatz sparred with Trump over the Syrian city of Aleppo.
Trump criticized the Obama administration for publicly announcing military actions.
“There are sometimes reasons the military does that,” Raddatz said, shifting from moderator to debater.
“Psychological warfare,” she continued, before Trump answered, “I can’t think of any.”
“It might be to help get civilians out,” she said louder, trying to talk over the candidate.
Another time, Raddatz audaciously chastised Trump, “This is about the audience.”
“We want to give the audience a chance here,” she said another time, trying to shut down Trump’s point.
Remarkably, Raddatz played audience member, candidate and moderator interchangeably.
