Hillary Clinton’s running mate Tim Kaine interrupted Donald Trump’s running mate time and time again during the vice presidential debate Tuesday night. Will the media call him out on it?

Vox: “Trump interrupted Clinton 51 times at the debate. She interrupted him just 17 times”

Vox: “I counted every interruption in the first presidential debate. And then I did the same for Obama-Romney

PBS: “For many women, watching Trump interrupt Clinton 51 times was unnerving but familiar

Huffington Post: “Donald Trump Couldn’t Stop Interrupting Hillary Clinton On Debate Night”

New York Magazine: “Donald Trump Interrupted Hillary Clinton Many, Many, Many Times at the Debate”
