Yea, Timmy. Wanna fight after school? Wait, you do? Well, I would, but my mommy said I can't.
Remember when Musk and Zuckerberg were gonna fight? Feels a lot like that, but older and somehow even less interesting.
I’m old enough to remember that we had actual debates between opposing candidates, but I’m in my 40s and not interesting
Yep. I remember the McCain vs Obama debates. I remember thinking their policies were pretty similar, and either would probably govern decently enough. I wasn't a Dem or Rep, though I had voted mostly blue thus far.
But then McCain picked Palin as his running mate, and I saw the VP debates. And holy shit did that make the choice easy, and Red has just been getting more and more extreme ever since.
I have a proposal...
Anywhere? Okay, how about at the bottom of the Mariana trench?
No debate unless trump agrees to mic cut off after turns
Every interruption means he has to hug Eric.
by debate he means he will childishly shout over anyone he's on stage with constant bullshit and juvenile rhetoric - no thanks. having seen trump in debates I honestly question anyone silly enough to try, he'll never 'debate', he just gish gallops bullshit until his minders come to change his diapers.
So this means he's Definitely refusing to debate him. What a shit. Murica, you vote this guy in and I think I'm all out of sympathy.
Trump loving America is not the majority of America. It's not even half. It's just the "voting age" almost-halfz which is what, 30% of all Americans?
The reason Trump won in 2016 is because many people who didn't like Hilary didn't vote. And even so, Hilary got 2 million more votes than Trump.
Then Trump lost to Biden. If he was so popular, he would have won a second term.
So, no. Please don't think that the majority of Americans are deplorables.
Dude it's not me, it's them. There's a weird division in this country and for some reason there are people on the other side.
He's lying. He wouldn't do it if it was moderated by Jon Stewart or Mehdi Hasan.
I would pay money to see Jon Stewart moderate a debate. I mean seriously, like pay per view.
And yet he cowardly backed away from a debate with Sanders
Trump didn't want that Bernie heat
Trump doesn't debate anyone ever. He shows up and steamrolls the other person with his version of reality.
And when he's done, he flips the table, shits on it, and then declares victory...
...and his base fucking eats it up with a -smile.-
It's baffling.
Gay bar. Do it.
Anywhere AND anyplace? Stable genius. Given his bouts with slurring and dementia I'd like to see him get shredded by Biden.
Underoath in a court room?
I'm baffled that the republicans thought putting a senile proven fraudster, insurrectionist and sexual predator with a bunch of pending court cases against him was a good idea..
Except you know, in real life
Ok. On the treadmill, at the gym.
How about a fucking nursing home and they can both stay there when it's over.
If Biden does debate Trump, he needs to hit Trump with his rape conviction AND the $83 M judgement, tax evasion by fraud that will cost Trump another $450 M, and the multitude of civil suits that are coming. Being president does not affect civil lawsuits. And when Trump loses AGAIN, he is looking at years of prison, at the absolute minimum sentences. Hit Trump again and again for always being a loser. Remember how Obama roasted Trump? Biden can remind Trump how he was owned by Obama. Biden needs to hit Trump with the volcano roast. Trump is an emotional baby. Once Trump gets overwrought, he will be a babbling a word salad of gibberish.
"at the end of this kind of long hallway"
This is the first time I've truly not cared at all about whether or not there is a presidential debate
Any debate with Trump in it is a farce. He just tries to interrupt, talk over, and talk louder than his opponent. It's all part of his faux-macho "establish dominance" strategy, just like when he pulls people toward him when he shakes their hand to knock them off balance. Remember the Gorsuch handshake?
Sweet Jesus. After watching the SotU Address, Biden is going to mop the floor with this schmuck.
That would be great if he was actually able to debate. Instead, he'll interrupt and yell, sling insults, and not answer any questions. Biden should 100% not debate him. He should say "I'm not going to debate with a felon, or anyone that is responsible for an insurrection"
Oh, Biden should agree to debate. But with rules to cut Trump’s mic when it isn’t his turn to talk.
Trump would never agree to that.
Invite that dumbass to a debate and spring a geography and US history test on him. It'll be hilarious.
He'll just yell and talk over anything anyone says. It doesn't matter what you bring to the table.
You'd just need a moderator and TV network with enough balls to shut it down if he steps out of line. So, short answer, you're right. It would never work.
I really want Biden to start punching. He should make a video of Jill hugging him and look at the camera and say “Donald, that’s what they do when they love you.”
46 should know not to debate 45 because 45 is an idiot.
Never get into arguments with idiots, the will drag you down to their level and beat you with expirence.
Besides, we havent had a real debate since the advent of cable TV... Just dont bother of your not in it for the spectacle.
Trump lost every debate he has been in. Biden needs to get Trump to agree to 3 debates right now.
