The leaders of President Donald Trump reelection campaign on Thursday accused The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) of bias, calling the organization’s leadership “permanent swamp monsters” who are “any thing but” nonpartisan.
During a call with reporters on Oct. 1, Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien read through a list of the commission’s leadership and pointed to each official’s anti-Trump comments and the amounts each had donated to Democrats. Stepien noted that even the Republicans on the commission hold unfavorable views of Trump.
