I left NBC on after the debate and it didn't take more than a few minutes for the leftist political pundits to suggest that team Biden won't gain anything from future debates (because Trump is a bully), and that they saw no reason for him to participate in any more.

Will there be a 2nd and 3rd debate? Or will team Biden use this line to weasel out of 'em?

I don't think Trump will do worse (I think his team will make sure he allows Biden to speak more in the future) and I can't imagine Biden doing any better. Biden isn't magically going to start giving coherent and detailed policy plans. So to me it makes sense that the Dems would prefer tonight to be the last impression people have of Trump. But I also thought that they would weasel out of the debate tonight and was wrong about that.

If Biden won the debate like these idiots claim why would they want to cancel debates 2 and 3?

No way I'm debating again if I'm Biden's camp

You got out of this one clean and now you get to blame Trump interrupting to avoid the next two

Pretty much worked out perfectly for him

That's a HORRIBLE look. At that point, he and his campaign are cowards for not agreeing to what every other campaign has done since the debate format began and expecting special treatment that other campaigns didn't get.

Hilary could handle it Joe, why can't you?

Trump will hammer him on this. “He can’t take an hour with me. Do you think he can survive 4 years with China russia and North Korea?”

If he wins the Presidency, will he decline talks with other world leaders if they’re bullies?

To do so would be weak and not well received.

"If he can't debate me three times because he thinks I'm a bully, how can an actual despot take him seriously?"

I don’t think you are thinking this through. People may not like a bully but they like someone who stands up to the bully. Not someone who tries to hide.

It won't be because Trump's a bully

it'll be because zero intelligent discourse was happening

Everybody thought the debate was a complete dumpster fire - they'll frame it as saving us from having to watch that shite

They may be tempted, but it would be a huge gamble. Not a good look IMO, but they aren't asking me for advice. Rightly or wrongly, the American people expect their candidates to do this.

You may be right, but he already stood up to him once in their minds

I'd prefer for him to debate - I can just envision a world where they get out of it without much flack
