    The problem with the Biden debate situation is that he was trailing in the polls, so he needed a debate with a strong performance in order to win over voters. Obviously, the opposite of that happened.

    Trump’s margin against Kamala is likely smaller, but he’s still slightly ahead. It’s probably much more prudent for him to avoid a debate given that Kamala would probably perform much better than him. He has nothing to gain and everything to lose.

      There was a time where it was a given that we’d have x number of Presidential debates… I can’t believe how far we’ve sunk.

        Normally you don’t have a debate against an Alzheimer patient from a party that denied how bad it was for years. Remember when his senility was fake news, like…3 weeks ago? Exact same arrogant bastards are risking a trump victory again while they play their stupid games. Harris is looking coronated, same as Biden and Hillary before. That they don’t have a real open primary is pathetic. The one party state yall say you want to prevent arrived ten years ago, now you’re just the north american equivalent of Jackie Chan supporting the communist party. Yknow they vote for left and right factions inside the overarching party there, right? People vote with a choice of conservative communist member or liberal communist member, they all belong to a second party under the main one.
