Now, America's number one show on pop culture and politics. This is the Michael Medved Show.

And another great day in this greatest nation on God's Green Earth. And what a great day it is if you care about politics. And of course, every American should and must care about politics otherwise

politics is going to come back and bite you it has a tremendous impact on the way we

live our lives and the future that we try to hand on to our children if any or

grandchildren that's a an undeniable fact of a to our children, if any, or grandchildren.

at 6 p.m. Pacific Time, 9 p.m. Eastern time, and then mountain time and central time in between.

But it will be 90 minutes. And one of the factors about this debate that they are imposing as a very strict rule,

which a lot of people are focusing on today in particular, is not

only the idea that, yes, they are going to limit the amount of time you can speak, they

are going to try to prevent interruptions by one candidate of another candidate, by turning

off the candidate's microphone.

But I've now seen pictures, as we all have, of what the stage is going to look like.

And they're close.

There may be 10 feet away from each other, which means that if President Trump

has it in mind to interrupt President Biden by shouting out, you liar, that's not true, or what about

what you did in France? What about how you embarrassed us? Whatever he shouts out, it will be picked up. It will be

heard. But Trump will not have the advantage of a teleprompter. And again, this is one of those

things where a lot of people believe, oh, no, Trump doesn't use a teleprompter. He obviously does.
