Media urges Biden to limit debates, Threaten to boycott them entirely

As the Trump campaign has requested the addition of another presidential debate, members of the media are urging former Vice President Joe Biden and his campaign to limit them.
Washington Post columnist Karen Tumulty suggests “rethinking” the debates, urging organizers to limit their audiences “or even do away with them entirely.” Criticizing President Trump and the Republican party for their decision to attempt an in-person convention this summer, she also mocked Trump’s request to add a fourth debate, calling it “not a serious proposal.”
Thomas Friedman of the New York Times has also called for Biden to skip the debates unless Trump releases his tax returns and agrees to a fact-checking team at the debates. “I worry about Joe Biden debating Donald Trump,” Friedman says, quickly clarifying that he fears Trump would have “unfair advantages” if he doesn’t meet these demands. Friedman acknowledges that the debates will be Biden’s “reintroduction to most Americans, who have neither seen nor heard from him for months if not years.” And apparently, Friedman finds that thought concerning.

I’d be shocked if they have debates
Covid will be the way out they use

Scared.

Maybe they agree to a cardboard cutout of Biden with a speaker in it so his handlers can answer in a Wizard of Oz Cyrano de Bergerac kind of way.

I'm unwilling to publicly debate my opponent, but I can run the country! This is insanity.

The most critical would be a highly functioning brain for the stable genius.
Limiting audiences.
These mofos are skeered.

They don't want Joe to show the public that he's lost all his marbles and can't string together two coherent sentences.
That is Trumps' unfair advantage.
If he is scared of Trump, Putin will eat him for lunch.

If you were a Dem strategist I don’t understand how you would allow Biden on stage against Trump.
The guy would get crushed and exposed for how shaky his mental state is at present.
I’ll be shocked if he takes the stage but I’ll welcome it for entertainment value.

Trump's lack of senility really is an unfair advantage.

A debate to help us decide between the two candidates up for the most powerful position in the world is not as important as protesting, looting, and tearing down statues. That's where we are right now

They know Biden will get destroyed.

Ive never paid for a PPV in my life, but I would pay if I had to to watch this.

WTF does his tax return have to do with this? Also, these "fact-checking teams" are already at the debate...CNN, MSNBC, WaPo...

I keep seeing them talk about this big lead they have but they sure aren’t acting like it. Every tactic they implement reeks of desperation. As far as the media, anyone still not clear on what they are is either stupid or complicit. Ignorance isn’t an excuse anymore.

Is this guy secretly working for Trump and goading Biden into the debates? He might as well say Joe is too much of a vag to go toe to toe with DJT.

There’s no way this is real right? Holy shite

How can they use Covid as an excuse? The two candidates can be 20 feet apart and they don't even need an audience.
