‘He Is In The Process Of Winning’: Hugh Hewitt Says Americans Now Feel ‘Debate Was Rigged’ Against Trump

“I think he knows that he is in the process of winning the debate on Tuesday night and I want to explain that. NFL fans are familiar with the phrase ‘upon further review, the officials have reversed the call on the field due to overwhelming evidence.’ Well, upon further review, the American public has decided that that debate was rigged,” Hewitt said. “It was absolutely in the tank by ABC and Disney to hurt the former president and help Kamala Harris.”

“When you go back and look at the deep, deep bias that manifested itself, it was as though lawfare had become mediafare and that, one example, not one question on China … And I think Donald Trump is reading internals, reading their polls and realizing the American people are disgusted with ABC, Kamala Harris did not answer one question directly and they’re moving towards him,” he added. “He’s winning.”

Davis gave Harris a chance to address her many policy flip-flops, but the vice president used her time to talk about her “values” rather than explaining her changed positions.

“Enormous tidal wave of reaction continues to come in. A debate isn’t over in a day. There was an enormous audience but there’s an enormous reaction to the face plant by ABC that’s being factored in,” Hewitt said. “It’s all working in the favor of the former president because people don’t like cheating and they viewed that debate as cheating … This was on a scale we have never seen before. Every question, every answer, five, six fact-checks of Trump, none of Kamala Harris.”

Harris won the debate by over 20% in the eyes of Americans, according to polls by CNN and YouGov. However, Trump asserted in his Thursday post that “Polls clearly show” he was victorious, and on Wednesday he posted screenshots of certain polls that show viewers believe he won.
