Yes, that's right - some people in the building had a hard time hearing him, but this is not related to the TV feed - AT ALL.

Let me get this straight. "Some people" supposedly could t hear him, although TV audiences could, and it's the same mic.

Got it.

Look, I've played music onstage with a bad mic. It didn't make the singer say stupid words or act like a jerk or start sniffing. You have to physically sniff for the mic to sound like a sniff. It doesn't just make sniffing sounds on its own (that miraculously happen to be right in sync 100% of the time with Trump making a face that looks like he's sniffing. And, if the mic was so bad, why didn't he ask for it to be fixed or swapped out?

So you're saying Hillary's mike was messed up too ?

the issue rested with Trump touching his microphone, something candidates had been told not to do because the microphones were "calibrated exactly" to the candidate's voices.

According to the tweets in a different article which I read, the crowd in the audience was having trouble hearing him during the first part of the debate. It had no effect on the TV audio. And it certainly didn't create the sniffing sounds.

I think Hillary is a ventriloquist and was throwing sniffs.

That meant the Great America Best People Great Again in the room couldn't hear Trump's takedown on trade.


Trump attacks automation in China wine industry as taking U.S. jobs!

Just imagine what he might launch if told to not touch any buttons.

President Trump: "Hey, there's something wrong with this nuclear button. I keep punching it but it doesn't seem to work."
