quote:

Twelve news organizations on Sunday urged presumptive presidential nominees Joe Biden and Donald Trump to agree to debates, saying they were a “rich tradition” that have been part of every general election campaign since 1976.


quote:

Asked on March 8 whether he would commit to a debate with Trump, Biden said, “it depends on his behavior.”


quote:

Trump campaign managers Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita said in a letter this past week that “we have already indicated President Trump is willing to debate anytime, any place and anywhere — and the time to start these debates is now.”


quote:

The Biden campaign declined comment on the news organizations’ letter, pointing to the president’s earlier statement. There was no immediate response from the Trump campaign.

But on Saturday, Trump held a rally in northeast Pennsylvania with two lecterns set up on the stage: one for him to give a speech, the other to symbolize what he said was Biden’s refusal to debate him. The second lectern had a placard that read, “Anytime. Anywhere. Anyplace.”

Midway through his campaign speech, Trump turned to his right and pointed to the second lectern.

There will be no debates. Calling it now. Biden is incapable of doing it.

So basically, if Trump is still breathing, Biden won’t debate him.

So Trump wants to debate a dementia patient but won't debate others? Not surprised. This back fired on him back in 2020 with that out of control first debate where Trump actually did more bad than good with voters.

We'll be lucky if there is even an election at this point.

Trump is great entertainment now that he's senile.

MAGA can't lose!

No surprise here. They have been signaling this for some time. There’s a reason Biden said he may not debate Trump if Trump didn’t behave.

They can’t hide Biden in a basement this time, so they’ll avoid direct exposure to Trump.

Well if Trump has to be in court or be arrested, that might put a damper on the number and location of debates....

Crooked Joe is a coward as well as a traitor. He will not debate.

Sounds like Trump didn’t think through his decision to duck all the debates thus far. He set this up for Biden.

It should be a law put in place where both general election candidates HAVE to debate for President.
