There has to be some serious 4th quarter skeletons that come out of the closet at this point. The only thing they can't control is the voter suppression and interference, which hopefully, won't be enough for them to lose.

Maybe you should stop assuming.

Go read through his posts in the Mike Brown/George Floyd/BLM thread. 100% not worth any acknowledgement or interaction at all. Complete and utter lost cause.

Commission just announced that the October 15 Presidential Debate will be virtual.

So look forward to lots of "He's being coached off camera!" posts from people when it is happening.

But that's a small price to pay for basic safety.

Good. It's nuts to think that a candidate who is down is basically refusing to debate unless it's entirely on his terms.

spleen1015 · 10-08-2020, 09:17 AM

I don't think Trump will sit it out. His camp will talk him into attending.

Hopefully the commission sticks to its guns.

His entire business career has been built on simply throwing tantrums until he gets what he wants. Which actually has not been that successful for him. But it's his go-to move.

JediKooter · 10-08-2020, 09:47 AM

trump's fans probably think it's some kind of alpha move, when in reality, it's a chicken shit move that proves that he is no kind of leader, never has and never will be

kingfc22 · 10-08-2020, 10:02 AM

Trump needed less than 12 hours to blow his dog whistle calling Kamala “this monster” twice this morning.

Actually the CA Rep one is a satire account. Hard to tell these days I know. Thats okay though they are still big on racism and sexism. NC Rep Greg Murphy in a tweet that's he's since deleted:

"Kamala Harris is a walking disaster-she was only picked for her color and her race, is that how we pick our leaders in America"

Yes. Though the color and race we have generally picked have been white.

Brian Swartz · 10-08-2020, 11:08 AM

How do you have a debate with or without Trump? If he doesn't participate, is it just an infomercial with the moderator asking Biden questions? Do you get a random Trump supporter off the street and have them debate Biden?

Kodos · 10-08-2020, 11:17 AM

I think it becomes just a town hall for Biden. Which is fine.

It was intended to be a Town Hall... so it just becomes a Town Hall with Biden. You have voters ask the questions, only Biden gets to respond.

Damn. I try pretty hard to check stuff multiple times before posting.

ISiddiqui · 10-08-2020, 12:19 PM

It appears Trump now wants to change the dates of debate. This one a week later to Oct 22. That may assuage the Commission (it'd be after 14 days of when Trump got it). We'll see.

albionmoonlight · 10-08-2020, 12:25 PM

Biden offered to change the date.

I think that was a mistake.

ISiddiqui · 10-08-2020, 12:40 PM

Biden actually seems to be rejecting the change of date of the 2nd debate.

JPhillips · 10-08-2020, 01:06 PM

There were an estimated 50 million viewers last night. There were only 35 million in 2016 for the VP debate.

Turnout is going to be huge this year, even with the virus and the voter suppression tactics.

albionmoonlight · 10-08-2020, 01:10 PM

It looks like Biden agreed to push back the town hall one week.

Trump agreed, but insists on the third debate a week later.

Biden does not agree to the third debate that late.

So that's where they are.

Still think it would have been easier for Biden to just say he'd show up for the virtual debate.

There's that couple of seconds of silence at the and with his raised eyebrow and you can see them thinking "aw, crap, why did we let this guy on here". The longer clip has even more of it:
