1. The audience wasnt "padded with Sanders supporters". Fox controlled who came in.

They seemed to know the mix; at the beginning Brett baier said something like "Our audience is a mixture of republicans, democrats & independents." And i cant think of any reason they would have to pad the crowd with bernie folks.
IMO, they werent going to let in anyone who would try to disrupt the show and probably did a good job of screening them. Note that pro-trump protestors were OUTSIDE. I watched a good bit of it & never saw any disruptions.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
