First, some have speculated the timing of the first 2024 presidential debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden is so early in the election year, prior to any party convention, because Biden is anticipated to be replaced. This is considerable supposition, but the date of the debate is indeed very odd.
Secondly, without a doubt the headlines leading into the debate have been seeded with talking points friendly to the Biden position on economics, immigration, inflation and foreign policy (Ukraine). From economists publicizing letters to government agencies promoting lowered inflation, the talking points for Biden have been well scripted and practiced.
Third, CNN the exclusive media outlet for the debate, is notorious for structuring political attacks against President Trump. Biden has been in dress rehearsals and training for the optics and soundbites for several weeks. Knowing CNN gave prior debate questions to Hillary Clinton in advance during the 2016 primary, we can anticipate CNN working hand in glove with the Biden campaign. They don’t even try to hide this stuff any longer.
That said, if you are watching the debate tonight, consider this an open discussion thread. I will embed the livestream links below that should work despite CNN being extremely aggressive with the proprietary broadcast controls.

Debate drinking game bar open.
PDT could own the entire fake event by just holding his nose while looking at the Demented Fraud then commenting on adult diapers before his mic is muted
I’d like PresTrump to confront Dribblin’ Joe with all the hoaxes that have been proven wrong …
… the Russian collusion accusations in 2016, engineered by Hillary’s operatives
… the Hunter laptop fake Russia “disinformation” claim by “51 intelligence agents”
… the “Very Fine People” hoax finally admitted by Snopes after 7 frikkin’ years
… and challenge Joe to apologize for how he and his campaign weaponized those hoaxes against PresTrump
“Joe – now that these have been proven to be fallacies, will you apologize for capitalizing on them?”
it occurs to me that the debate rules may not permit that … they may stipulate that candidates stick to answering the moderators’ questions and not directly address or challenge the other candidate
Trump should just ignore their rules, what are they going to do? cut his mic, talk over him, they are going to do that anyway.
No rule against an earpiece for the diaper-wearing fool…I expect it..
CNN will enforce that rule with the same stringency as Biden enforces the border
This is not a debate – It will be torture.
Well PDJT can ask the communist news network if they’re going to apologize… since they wielded the weapon.
mute button time. The won’t let him ask any questions. All questions have been pre-approved by the Biden team in conjunction with CNN.
Maybe the contrast of how their being treated is what President Trump has been after all along.
Soma for me, the Huxley variety. In all seriousness, what are the odds of some brave soul sneaking in a phone for a real time stream?
What brave soul? There’s no audience or media allowed on the debate.
The janitor?
It has all the hallmarks of an execution at a prison.
No there are witnesses at an execution. This has all the hallmarks of a back alleyway mugging.
But the witnesses are kept in a separate room, like the press is here.
Nah, he’s an operative too, I’m sure
President Trump’s vice president pick.
They will probably frisk anyone not part of the cabal.
Apparently a bunch of readers here still don’t understand that there will be no live audience.
Who knows, it’s a brave new day. MAGAs should Aldous storm the place 😉
Let me see…one shot for each of his comments off the Biden Debate Bingo Card….
One shot for pause, repeat line, trunali munuma przure, no joke, I’m serious
Two shots for any mention of Beau, Ukraine or Putin…
Three shots for any mention of Bidenemoics is working, the polls are wrong,
Take the whole bottle for Trump is a racist dictator….or you know the thing
You’ll be drunk by 9:05 pm.
🤣🤣🤣
And of course, the go-to for President Potato Head, ” Convicted Felon.”
I can’t bring myself to watch this fiasco, so much appreciation for the commentary from the Treehouse!
I will not be watching this curated propaganda. CNN will be operating on a delay to edit out the parts they don’t like and nobody will be in attendance to call the BS.
I’m with you BNG.
Yeah it’s taken a dark turn in terms of rigging even for CNN
I’m hoping somebody , somewhere gets the full unedited vid.
Cuz that’s the one I want to see.
You would think the Trump team would record the whole debate.
Hope they will but in the meantime they’ll be fact checking Biden:
The Trump campaign rolled out a new website to fact check President Biden during the first presidential debate Thursday evening.
“Biden has been doing political debates for 50 years, having taken part in at least 40 debates since 1972,” the website FactCheckBiden.com reads. “His performances are often filled with lies — about himself, about statistics, about his record, and about events that never took place.
“We are holding Joe Biden accountable for his long track record of lying,” it added.
The site is already loaded with dozens of fact sheets on 16 topics, including the economy, foreign affairs, border security, health care, infrastructure, education, and more.
The campaign’s account on X already gave CNN’s fact-checker a warning.
We’ll be fact-checking the liberal “fact-checkers.”
townhall.com/tipsheet/leahbarkoukis/2024/06/27/trump-campaign-launches-website-to-fact-check-biden-n2641029
I’d rather help clean bathrooms and vacuum than watch the Communist News Network’s ridiculous “debate”… will be painful to watch and listen. Wonder if I can find the nitrile gloves today!
Amen. Debate? More of an insult to the First Amendment. Our founding fathers must be so ashamed that this sad spectacle is called a debate.
I would watch it but I have to clean the lint under my refrigerator.
That is not true, and is easy to check. Let’s keep the speculation to the fun stuff.
Brian Stelter said it’s not true
I’d take that with a lotta grains of salt
I’m with you, Buck.
This has no place in our society.
i refuse to play into corrupt CNNs hands.
I will not be watching either.
I hope I am wrong, but I keep thinking the reason the gag orders are not entirely lifted is tied to this debate. I think they will try to ask Pres. Trump questions that will violate the gag orders if he answers.
Good call, Vimmie.
I admit I watched bits of it while channel surfing between Gunsmoke.
And if DJT says anything about it post debate, they’ll call him a liar
CNN are lying dog faced pony soldiers
Likewise,they can stuff where the sun does not shine.
Gunsmoke reruns. The black and white ones..
I do Not believe Joe Biden will be on the stage tonight. I believe they have spent a week immersing the body double in responses, body movements, mannerisms, and voice inflections.
I would have thought this idea crazy some years back.
I’m predicting the cocky body double that they try to use for some kind of nostalgic representation. The real one has developed squinty little rodent like eyes and has gotten very slow of speech (like Muhammad Ali). The back of his head is also contorted which is exaggerated by his funky hair. If you don’t see those characteristics, it’s not him!
No marlarkey’ Dog face pony soldier! The kids would play with my leg hair in the pool. Now Cornpop was a bad dude. You know the thing!
LOL
“If you don’t vote for me …”
you ain’t got no hot sauce in your purse…
Sniff, sniff.
Former CIA showing how their full mask complete with hair is their best disguise.
TP, you could well be right.
https://revolver.news/2024/06/cia-chief-reveals-they-use-full-face-masks-to-walk-around-as-someone-else/
I remember pics of Joe with these weird wrinkles on his neck that looked like a rubber mask. Then there’s his chin droooping…
https://www.newsweek.com/viral-video-joe-biden-scratching-neck-conspiracy-theory-1794831
https://wltreport.com/2023/10/19/what-happened-joe-bidens-face-how-did-his/
Body double.
I want to see if Biden has any track-marks visible on his hands or wrists where they have been giving him IVs of Go-Go-Juice.
As mentioned often before, this is a side-by-side “press conference,” * which is rigged in favor of The Manchurian Marionette, who will be receiving questions the size of slow, very large marshmallow softballs, while President Trump receives questions the equivalent of “Have you stopped beating your wife?”
Zingers and sound-bites and embarrassment are the only purposes of such a ridiculous event.
The best we can hope for is that President TRUMP uses the opportunity well to address the American people with sanity rather than have a rigged “conversation” with the idiotic usurper illegally occupying The White House.
* See the Lincoln-Douglas Debates for examples of a REAL debate.
“Is this the first time you’ve lied to me?” lol
Maybe the contrast of how their being treated is what President Trump has been after all along.
This seems odd….
I saw that and was worried they might poison President Trump’s water. Scary…I hope he has a staff person to taste his water first.
That’s an easy one, little.
Just bring your own sealed bottle of water.
Not allowed to…
Swirl and spit. Right onto the floor. Show your disgust for the format and moderators.
little flower- TOTALLY agree with you! I have been worried for awhile that they will try to poison our President Trump. And why not- they’ve tried everything else! Sunny D is correct- let’s hope the team brings their own water.
They gave Trump covid for that debate in 2020. So no it is not out of the question.
It sure as hell does Sundance….
What do you think its about?
are they throwing in the towel for Marbles already?
If they were intent on taking down PDJT, literally, they cannot do it tonight, since the tweet went public.
It’s beyond odd.
Like when they lie in wait for Roger Stone to be busted in on by the cops/FBI, can’t remember which.
And….across the street isn’t close enough for them?
Are they all as lame as Joe Biden?
OTOH, if they *do* let the “reporters” over, maybe one of ’em will be a turncoat who records the whole Debate, unedited.
I’d be down with that!
Biden pushes Trump. Trump pushes back. Biden falls, hits his head and dies. Trump arrested for murder.
Newsome “elected” president.
Honestly I had the bad thought that ‘they’ would arrest PTrump while he’s on stage tonight for some new made up charges! I’m not sure I can even watch… I don’t trust any of this!!
I’m trying to suppress all those bad thoughts. Except the one where Trump becomes John Wick and destroys CNN.
Maybe?
https://t.me/The_Library_II/115859
Yep, I wrote about that yesterday. With Biden’s history of multiple strokes/cerebral hemorrhages and frail state it is a possibility.
Remembering how the CIA planned to lace LSD in Castro’s water during a Cuban National address.
This whole thing stinks out loud!
So many substances can be absorbed through the skin.
See, Biden isn’t on drugs, Trump was….
Nothing is off the table.
They placed Trump right underneath a cold air vent at one of the debates in 2020. That is a possibility this time. And yes they might pipe in something into that air.
Praying for safety there but its also a good wa?y to get people to tune in to CNN?
Can you imagine how stronge the cocktail they have to give to Biden? It could be very dangerous to his heart.
No doubt there will be a lot of emergency doctors at the ready.
I hope to God there are trustworthy people that have Trump’s back. I’m sure Melania did her homework.
Trump 2024
Candidates have Mike Off function during this Debate.
Why was it not a requirement for the Moderators to have the same?
Why are they allowed to interrupt/disrupt a Candidate while he’s answering a question?
Such a good point!!!! I’m noticing nobody seems to trust that CNN is on the up and up, lol
After 30 years of schooling on the topic….yeah.
Does that mean President Trump wins.
He always wins.
Does anyone know whether the Trump campaign will be able to tape the entire “debate”? There’s going to be a full two minute delay between the speeches and the airing; I assume that’s to try to clean up Biden’s garbling word salad. And also to silence President Trump if he even mentions that if this Regime had been legitimately elected they wouldn’t be so desperate to shut up every questioner.
Apparently the usual is seven seconds, that’s a huge difference. I don’t like it.
This is not true.
I’ve read this also. Prove it’s not true.
Whether it’s true or not the Trump campaign should still be entitled to the full unedited version.
As should we.
Biden refuses to turn over the Hur tapes. I suspect they will refuse to turn over tonight’s raw tape also.
UPDATE: CNN Responds to 1-2 Minute Delay Report | The Gateway Pundit | by Cassandra MacDonald (click on above line to see the article)
CNN via Brian Stelter tweet, denying the delay. Who really knows?
CNN didn’t deny it.
Didn’t they say the same thing for that last bar burner of a SOTU?
Brian Stelter no longer works for CNN… So how would he know?
Wahoo Sundance!!!
Thank you so very, very much!
Since I do not have/own a TV — I was just wondering how on earth was I going to watch this debate tonight?
Well, lo & behold — The Conservative Treehouse provides the answer — as they always do.
Thank you! And, I’ll be watching.
A Post Script:
If you have not — or are not — monetarily contributing to The Conservative Treehouse — please take a moment to consider that CTH may just be ‘last man standing’ when the SHTF.
This! — providing access to the debate for someone without a TV is just one small example.
There is absolutely no where else where you can find what you find here. Think about it. There is nothing else.
(And no, this is not a ‘paid announcement’. hahahahaha )
Instead, I am just one of many who are thankful & grateful for the miracle that The Conservative Treehouse truly is.
Bless you my fellow travelers — and ‘hang tight’.
Giddy-up!
Well considering Tucker was fired from FOX, they are trying to bankrupt and shut down Alex Jones, they are trying to bankrupt and shut down Jim Hoft of The Gateway Pundit, and now they’re targeting The Epoch Times, it’s clear they’re very afraid of non-State media. They’ve already bankrupted Giuliani, and I don’t know if they’ve removed him from the air yet. And it’s not like they didn’t have James O’Keefe arrested in his underwear – just as they did Roger Stone.
Your point about TCTH is certainly apt.
Biden wish list
CNN host known to provide dems with questions
Time delay to edit
No media
No audience
No drug test
Moderators that hate Trump
3 of 4 people on stage that have referred to Trump as Hitler
Looks like he got what he wanted
C’mon Man…..
Yup. It’s what they do.
Precisely why they should have been required to have the Mike Off function, just like the candidates.
What a Joke.
I believe moderators will mute PresTrump’s mic not only when Joe is speaking but also when it’s PresTrump’s turn but he launches down an avenue that runs counter to CNN’s commie sensibilities
So look for occasions when PresTrump starts speaking on “his turn” but his voice goes silent and his lips are still moving … or when he “speaks” for far less than his alloted time (indicating he’s been edited out partly during that 2-minute delay)
I expect this too.
We don’t have very high expectations of the debate “hosts.” Nor do they deserve it. But there are so many people who still fully believe President Trump will win. “Win.”
Yep, they will be like Candy Crowley on steroids
Barf. I still cannot stand hearing Candy Crowley’s name.
per Wikipedia:
Crowley is a vegetarian and practices Transcendental Meditation.[3][20] She is divorced,[21] and has two children, two stepchildren and four grandchildren. Her elder child is a neurosurgeon and her younger son a musician.[22]
Found in the bin… 🙁
Oops. Not sure what I posted IMO of Candy that got a moderator to determine my comment is “awaiting for approval.” Was it the word “barf?” or my quote from wikipedia about her now personal life? Dunno. Waiting for clarification.
Rita…I just found it in the bin then posted it.
It was automatically held up because it contained more than 3 links…which you may have not seen in the original post. This is what it looks like on our end of the blog….
I am pleased that my comment. which was not inflammatory, ended up approved.
I’m not sure what you meant by “more than 3 links” – unless you are referring to the 4 “footnotes” ascribed by Wikipedia.
All’s well that ends well.
Ad rem’s 8:08 explanation illustrates that that is precisely what she meant…. ??? nobody ever said anything about “inflammatory” – ???
And Moderators who love to interrupt/disrupt Trump, and help Biden with answers.
And no drug testing.
Crooked Joe Biden is afraid to debate in front of a crowd.
That’s only because he can’t draw one.
President Trump needs to stay on his policy that will MAGA and not let cnn or Biden get under his skin
I’d like him not to try to be funny.
Ageed. He should ignore the questions and just speak to the people. Dems never answer anyway, why should he.
Excellent point, Brian W.
I know there are a number of people on our side who wish Trump never accepted this debate. On the contrary tonight will continue to reinforce in the minds of the American people how the deck is being stacked against him, and as an extension the American people.
I expect President Trump to give a strong performance and show the leadership the American people are looking for in these trying times. Biden and his assistants Fake Tapper and Dana Bash will do all they can to get under Trump’s skin, but he just needs to talk directly to the American people and to steal a line from Reagan ask them, “if they’re better off than they were four years ago”.
Agree totally – this type of crap is right up his alley IMO.
stacked
He’s already won. Big Guy Bribem wouldn’t accept a debate on fox.
https://rumble.com/v541u51-vivek-ramaswamy-trump-already-won-the-debate.html
There’s a new Trump campaign ad released on debate day… Savage and, well…
{ Trump Campaign Releases New Ad Which Would Be Funny If it Wasn’t So Terrifyingly True — “Who Is Laughing Now” }
Maths is hard but yeah, point made on grocery prices.
I just think this would be a perfect time for President Trump to change his demeanor…Treat Marble like you would a Senile grandfather – keep smiling – laugh – even joke with Marbles – Any questions that are designed to try and hurt you – just rattle off the names of those who have been killed by illegals – offer solutions – get Marbles to crack because he won’t be expecting it..he’s not trained for it. Don’t bring up Hunter under any circumstance – Don’t make this about you…they are expecting it…just stay the course and make it about the America you want for us….let him implode.
If you look good and get out of this in one piece with all the that has already that has been put against you – there will be a new candidate in 2 weeks –
I agree.
All Trump has to do is be in command of the facts that matter to voters and show a little self-discipline. Tell the unvarnished truth and look presidential. No matter what anybody says, there are still voters who can be persuaded.
Pray that the Holy Spirit will expose the truth to the American people.
Amen!
The Holy Ghost is all about revealing the truth, but it’s that so many Americans are either not interested in truth or have invested heavily in the promotion of lies and liars.
None of us should be giving eyeballs to CNN.
You can watch it on many different venues. Not just CNN TV, website.
Watch through proxy.
I would have to wrap my head in Gorilla Duct Tape three times over to prevent it from exploding. No thanks.
All you Catholics:
Let’s pull out our beads and say a Rosary of the Luminous Mysteries for President Trump, right now please.
He needs our prayers and we can pray him to victory!
Amen and thank you!
Protestants, too. All Christians Pray.
And Jews, Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, etc.
Heck, I don’t care if you’re agnostic. If you’re a decent person, Pray.
They are on speed pray, in my pocket…
I will watch it as I watch SOTU – with the sound off to focus on Biden’s physical appearance and gestures, and reading the comments here and at a few other conservative sites.
Great plan. Please let us know what you observe.
I’m applying flame retardant to my hair. I also understand the broadcast will be on a two minute delay instead of the normal 30 second delay. No audience. This is so obvious. I may not torture myself with this.
It won’t be a fair fight. Trump is taking on the single functioning brain cell in all of CNN while Joe messes in his Depends. I’m only tuning in to see how massive the dilation of Pedo’s eyes will be.
Not watching. Would rather read CTH comments.
I wish President Trump would just hold a rally outside the broadcast station and ignore them!
Three against one — I like the odds.
I can already hear Jake from CNN’s opening questions for the candidates.
Tapper: Mr. Trump, why are you a Nazi?
Trump: I’m not.
Tapper: President Biden, why is Mr. Trump lying about not being a Nazi?
Biden: (argle-bargle mumbling and angry fist-waving)
This is CNN. Time for a commercial break.
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/06/what_to_expect_from_the_presidential_debate.html
Tapper: OK, Adolf, the first question is yours…
I predict the debate will degenerate into a shambles.
May Joe Biden have an interesting debate. … … a very interesting debate.
The truth is that in terms of getting votes for either side, this debate is meaningless.
99.9% of the people watching have the attention span of a flea which is about 6 seconds. The election is 4 months away- an eternity for many. There is nothing good or bad that will happen tonight that’s going to change hearts and minds on November 5th.
This event is something akin to the Superbowl or a big sporting event that is going to generate many MILLIONS of dollars for the media fake and otherwise. There’s a lot of excitement, lots of advertising and lots of hype.
Sure, we’ll be talking about it for awhile, but given the 24/7 news cycle, the debate will soon be replaced with the latest horror coming from the Bidenistas.
The big story is what are they going to do next to shut down President Trump and MAGA. We live in dangerous times.
Prediction. Joe. Idea is perfect and this is the clincher!
Not sure why there is even a debate.
Simply, a choice of voting either for America or for communism.
(the old democrat party of slavery and KKK doesn’t exist anymore – has been replaced by communism).
Fact checked and corrected for accuracy
Going to be the biggest audience CNN has ever had, but I don’t want to watch it on their Youtube channel. Is any Conservative channel live streaming?
There might be some podcasts with conservative commentators give their views while watching.

Thank you, as usual, Sundance. 🇺🇲
Why do Republicans have to submit to Democrat venues and Democrat moderators?
We don’t need a debate. Democrat corruption and incompetence is so flagrant.
They have no respect for American taxpayers. Joe Biden is even worse than Jimmy Carter.
What a joke on the USA.
Maquis, your presence is required, please!
We miss you. Hope you are back soon!
Press being shuttled across the street for the debate because of a possible “medical emergency”.
In addition, instead of the normal 7 second delay, it’s going to be 1-2 minutes, allowing time for editing of the video.
Looks like a big coverup for Biden’s problems.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/06/whoa-white-house-press-corps-forced-watch-feed/
PDT had no compulsion to agree to this rigged event. He probably feels he has persuasive powers that will use CNN’s bias as fuel. But these are professional liars.
I wish he’d never have agreed to attend the Tapper Trap.
President Trump would never run away. He challenged Biden to a debate months ago. What did you expect him to say now?
What’s to stop Trump himself from wearing a wire and releasing the audio later?
About the delay
There is no gambling at Bushwood and anyway, CNN NEVER lies. : ))
As for me, I have much(!) better things to do with my evening. In fact, I’m going to grill a steak, with a few potatoes, and enjoy a nice bottle of wine.
As for the pathos which is “Joe Biden, now,” I can only hope that Lord Death will hurry up. (He’s always late …)
There will be no “debate” per se, just a made for tv deep state production.
It’s always good to know what’s happening with the Limited Hangouts though. The more that the Leftist Fascists are exposed, the better it is. President Trump has never shown fear no matter what/who he is up against.
Don’t want to watch but will bc husband does.
I don’t do well with media disrespect of President Trump. It takes me back to the c19 pressers. He was treated so badly.
I wouldn’t give CNN a click-through even if DC was nuked.
