Actually he is correct. No candidates or “entitled” to anything.

The voters are the ones entitled to them showing.

You said if he shows up he wins the debates. Does winning the debates not help him?

Honestly not much because I don’t live paycheck to paycheck like you must do.


you really are this stupid on the econonomy eh? you really do not understand $$ and jobs huh? investments? how it is all tied together?

you obviously do not run a business like us or must be dirt poor. paycheck to paycheck has nothing to do with the premise. if you did not benefit from the cuts you are a democrat on welfare and food stamps and do not work.

wait you think nobody in trump cabinet like kudlow or moore had any input on the marginal and corporate tax and regulation cuts? you think it was all paul ryan?

because WAPo told you so?



MUH trump is GOPe. right they loved him so much huh colluding/supporting with dems non stop in impeachments/rigged elections/going against maga candidates,maybe even this indictment!.

you morons keep posting more like commies each day. just throw shite against a wall see if it sticks

If Trump is a no show they all have to actually debate and challenge each other with bullshite establishment canned talking points. They have to discuss geo politics.


If Trump is a no show then they’re going to all have a script to go by to work into every answer talking shite about him and calling him a coward all over national tv and forcing him to go to social media to defend himself, then come the ads “Trump won’t even show up to fight for your vote in a debate, how can we expect him to fight for you in DC? He’s a shell of who he used to be.” It’ll be a blitzkreig Then he has to wait a month or however long to get back into the next debate.

Part of the reason why I keep coming back to this board is to see the wild imagination of the Trump supporters. It’s absolutely entertaining


i have yet to see you debunk any of the supporting facts/links posted by trumpers because you are just a troll hack poor loser showing your ignorance day after day.

you have no pride or shame like commies on DU. probably because you are one. you are a laughing stock like jon ham.

no way could most here with any cred post here like you or your ilk and keep showing up day after day with zero substance, perspective, objectivity, or critical thinking skills. That is an embarrassment you and all your ilk are fine with sadly proving you are indeed a commie dem as others have said here.

keep making your shameless self look dumb

you are reaching new lows each day. congrats loser

Go back and watch every debate Trump has been a part of and ask yourself-

Would I go debate the moderator and other candidates?

Plus we need to see the others discuss policies etc instead of all the questions being about Trumps indictments.

As MK said, he eats up all the oxygen in the room and everyone in the room gets TDS straight away. Including the moderator. shite show. He’ll debate when someone performs well enough to tighten the race..as any sane person in his situation would do.

Why would he have to go to the debates? He’s way up without them. All they could possibly do is give an opponent an opportunity to get out a good line or even a good hit on Trump and boost their poll numbers. If the main guy isn’t in the debate, less people will watch it and he doesn’t have to worry about either of those scenarios.

Just watch the first Biden debate and there is the game plan for wrecking Trump.

He'll destroy himself.

Not really.

But the voters are the ones entitled to vote for those candidates who do show, or antithetically, vote for someone who decides not to show.

Therein is the sole "entitlement" involved. The rest is politics.

A poster in this thread characterized not showing for the debate as "cowardice." That is silly. It's about like claiming a team taking a knee to run out the clock and preserve its lead at the end of a game is cowardice.

If Trump's lead is large enough to simply run out the clock, and that's what he chooses to do, so be it.

Because he needs to earn all GOP voters. Nothing is given. He is a politician, not a king like you clowns think he is.

It would be like a football game if it was a football game. Stop comparing something incredibly important to an irrelevant as hell football game.

He’ll get clobbered. He lost a debate to Joe Biden and couldn’t handle Bret Baier a few weeks ago. This isn’t 2015.

the field needs trump to show up and become piñata.

trump obfuscates and lies in his speeches.

can Christie singlehandedly destroy the liar?

nope. it will take a chorus of laughing and a couple of memorable zingers so we all use them.
