Ok. I'll also give you a lesson in reading comprehension. In point #1, you refer to Trump as "he". In point #3, you refer to Trump as "he". How in the frick am I supposed to know you're talking about someone else in point #2. That's your fault.



It's following a conversation and comprehending it.

You're worried giving the dems general election ammo but you'll hand them a nuclear arsenal in Trump.

They hid Biden away because he can barely complete a sentence some days.
Trump is leading his competitors by historically huge margin. Also, people already know Trump. He has no need to sell himself. That being said, I believe he will debate but on his terms.

You absolutely know he's going to be live tweeting the debate and respond to any negative thrown his way but he won't do it live in person. COWARD!






Trump will debate. He may not in this first one, (he has not stated he wouldn't) but he will debate.

Biden crushed Trump in the first debate in both substance and likeability


I don’t think anyone won that first debate in a way someone could be proud of. But it was absolutely more damaging to Trump. Every single negative trait the media was pounding away at came out in full view of the country. It validated the talking points that were used against him. It’s a popularity contest to a degree and that performance hurt him.

TDS for starters.

Biden already knew the plan, so there was no need.

Trump is not trailing in any poll, and as he himself pointed out, why would I attend something thats going to hit me with the tough questions while guys at 1% are tossed softballs.

He has a point. Trump knows it's just more of a trap to try and harm his momentum.

Comprehend that you need to qualify the fact that you're referring to someone different than the person he's sandwiched between.

Once again....this was a *you* problem. Thankfully, we can't read your mind.

Why can't you have an original thought instead of going with "i know you are but what am I?"

He doesn't need to debate as it can only hurt him, so he isn't going to debate.

Frame it however you want. Some of the candidates are out there throwing hail marys. Trump doesn't need to.

This is false. Biden was way behind early on until South Carolina when James Clyburn and the democrat machine coalesced behind him. Biden had to debate in the primaries. Vastly different situation with the Republican primary this year as you know.

No, It's qualified. You simply keep displaying a lack of comprehension and want to argue about it.

There is no upside to the American people and Republican electorate for a Presidential candidate to debate?

This is the correct answer. Trump should interview for the American public like everyone else. He doesn't deserve anything. He should earn it & I have serious questions about how he handled certain issues last time I trusted him with my vote.

Could someone square this one away for me? Biden hid from debates in 2020 while having a lead for the duration of the race. Is Trump now sinking to Joe’s level? What am I missing here?



Are you under the impression that Biden didn't debate Trump? You are wrong about that, so your point is almost assuredly wrong.

"We can't risk giving the Dems ammo in the general!"


Also here's a candidate that shields Joe Biden from having to defend his failed presidency and dumpster fire economy. Instead the messaging can be "listen this election is about the character of America. We can't elect a racist, sexist, rapist, Nazi felon who tried to overthrow Democracy."

That's all the ammo the Dems can shove into a cannon right there. Joe Biden is a historically flimsy incumbent. But he doesn't have to defend any of it. He can just say "But Trump..." and that'll be enough for enough people.

Is asking why he allowed Fauci and the Dems to destroy this country a democrat/establishment argument? Because that question kinda goes against both democrats and the establishment.


How about the way Republican congressional leadership completely wasted their power and undermined his Presidency?

The argument against the Covid-19 response is just stupid. You actually wanted him to just fricking blow it off and treat like it was nothing from the beginning when every expert in lock step saying it was one of the biggest healthcare threats in history? Y’all are crazy.

Fauci and crew look corrupt and evil, but the way it was set up there was no quick out. It had to be played the way it was played in 2020. The anger should be focused on the political few that weaponized it not Trump and his allies.

I don’t think Trump has an issue fighting the establishment attacks. I just see it as it is a set-up and not a good faith debate.

Look he was by far the better debater and by far the better ideas in 2020 debates. People still say “he lost” the debate because the whole thing is portrayed through a liberal lens and with left leaning/establishment moderators who don’t give a shite about making sure real policy is discussed.

The Republican establishment plan to pull the same shite. That is why The majority of the candidates are even in the race.
