Debate Commission confirms Trump’s mic was faulty
Donald Trump’s microphone was faulty, the Commission on Presidential Debates confirmed in a statement Friday.
“Regarding the first debate, there were issues regarding Donald Trump’s audio that affected the sound level in the debate hall,” the Commission stated in a Friday press release.
Almost immediately after Monday’s presidential debate, Trump began complaining about the quality of the microphone — saying that he didn’t have the “sniffles,” he just had bad equipment.
“No! No sniffles,” Trump told Fox News Channel in a Tuesday morning interview. “No. You know, the mic was very bad but maybe it was good enough to hear breathing.”
“But no sniffles, no cold,” he added.
Trump’s microphone issues appear only to have affected the sound in the Hofstra University debate hall, however, and not the record-setting audience watching at home.
