MAGA World Goes Into a Tailspin After CBS Cuts JD’s Mic

“HOW DARE YOU.”

“DISGRACEFUL.”

“Unreal.”

A fact-checking flashpoint that spiraled into a full-on mic cut at the vice presidential debate set right-wing tempers ablaze on Tuesday night, with MAGA World denizens tweeting out their gormless outrage that CBS News had had the nerve to silence J.D. Vance.

After moderator Margaret Brennan offered Vance, who’d been speaking about ******** immigration, a correction that a large swath of the Haitian community in Springfield, Ohio was in the country legally, Vance talked over her.

As the *********** nominee tried to get into the minutiae of the documentation required to come into the ******* States, the network cut off both candidates’ microphones.

“Gentlemen, the audience can’t hear you because your mics have been cut,” Brennan said, smiling tightly. “Thank you for explaining the legal process.”

Vance seemed miffed, scoffing that “the rules were you guys weren’t going to fact-check.” (CBS set a ground rule that the mics would be cut should the crosstalk grow too heated.)

But that was nothing compared to the nuclear meltdown that had already been triggered online.

“F you CBS – how DARE YOU,” commentator Megyn Kelly tweeted.

“The CBS moderators just MUTED JD Vance’s mic as he called them out for their ***** about Kamala Harris’ open border policies,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) inveighed. “DISGRACEFUL.”

The CBS moderators just MUTED JD Vance’s mic as he called them out for their ***** about Kamala Harris’ open border policies.

DISGRACEFUL.

— Marjorie Taylor Greene
