Dems announce Biden will NOT debate any presidential contender here on out.

[Tree of Knowledge 1,699]

Trump ran the most open and transparent administration in human history.  No need for him to debate.  

[RLLD 4,143]

It would not make sense for an incumbent president to debate in-party contenders. I think that would be pointless for the most part.

UNLESS....polling suggests a neck-in-neck competition was evident.  That would be different. 

[Reality 3,096]

Duh, he can barely make it through the extremely limited amount of press conferences he is allowed to have. No need to expose him further.

His handlers are scared to death every time he's near an open mic.

He's an absolute embarrassment to the country any time he speaks in public.

Has Biden ever even taken questions as President?  (that weren't scripted)

[Dizkneelande 1,085]

Why even argue with this clown about Biden’s mental fitness. Once again he is in the extreme minority like every other political topic yet, you let him dominate the narrative.

Tulsi Gabbard/many other democrats do NOT have to have folks attest that they are "fine" or the "what you see isn't real" type lingo.  (I used the example earlier of golden retriever owners don't have to announce things like "its not the breed, it's the owner" and "they are just misjudged".

Another one is Fetterman. 

Why do his supporters have to defend his cognitive ability?

You don't see debates or topics or arguments on "Are golden retrievers loaded weapons or just misunderstood?" or "are paper towels dangerous?"

 

Why does the discussion/debate or a POLL for God sake regarding mental fitness even exist? 

 

Anyone?

Its just like the old saying:  There are none so blind as those who timschochet.

 

As for presidential debates, I have yet to see one.  Yes I have watched all of the media events billed as presidential debates, but clearly they are nothing more than media opportunities.  None have fit the definition of a debate.  The typical response in each one, to each question is:  What I am hearing you asking is not about the subject of your question, but rather about a preprepared canned answer to the question I wish you had asked.  I am going to give you that well rehearsed bit of bovine scat in just a moment, but my handlers have provided me with a list of derogatory insults and innuendoes about my opponent, and unless I use one during each of my terms I will not get through the list, so here goes...

Point Given. (not the horse)

I was using the headline that I posted to get to my point.   But yes, my headline wasn't quite correct.... no one will debate a truly inferior candidate.  I get that.

I really don't think he is fit for office. and if I'm a democrat, I'm looking/hoping for another candidate.   Like, you...personally...Mike Honcho... do you see everything (his movements, his speech, etc) as "normal"?  Maybe you do...maybe you think the naysayers are blowing things out of proportion. 

But my response to would be, Well, there's folks that stand up and outwardly yell "Pitbulls are no different than any other dog", "its the owners, not the dog" etc.

My response is, then ..."How come owners of Golden Retrievers aren't pleading their case that their dog is "misjudged" or having to argue "Golden Retrievers are no different than any other dog" . 

There have been plenty of other Democratic politicians in which no one had to defend their cognitive abilities, etc. 

Also....random thought here on a tangent....I think the #1 ranked democratic politician is Tulsi Gabbard. 

That would be my answer.  I don't think he's suffering dementia and if fact I think a large part of it is the GOP projecting to keep people from talking about the cognitive abilities of 'person, woman, man, camera, tv' guy. 

Biden stumbles over a some works, he's in cognitive decline!!! He's suffering from dementia!!!  But the guy who thinks he won the 2020 election, thinks it's no big deal to ask for 12K votes and all the other nuttiness he espouses daily, that you guys are like  
 

I'd prefer a younger candidate just based on how taxing the job must be, but if it shapes out to be between those two, just on that cognitive abilities and being able to differ between fact and fiction, Joe Biden by a mile.

[thegeneral 2,897]

People will judge if they want Biden or the Republican, his age, how he does in that debate, job he’s done, etc will be what determines that.

Him debating in a Dem primary is dumb and would be odd for him to do.

Trump considering skipping one or more GOP primary debate

Former President Donald Trump has privately discussed skipping either one or both of the first two Republican presidential primary debates, according to three sources who have spoken with Trump about his plans.

Trump’s advisers have pointed to his commanding lead in the polls as one reason he is hesitant to share the stage with his GOP challengers.

“Why would we debate? That would be stupid to go out there with that kind of lead,” one Trump adviser said.

What would Trump debate about?  All he has said in the past few years is "I was robbed!" and insulting nicknames for his opponents.

Hell, if it does end up Trump vs Biden, I predict zero debates.  Neither one of those turds' campaigns would want to throw their candidate out there for embarrassment.

[Engorgeous George 2,126]

I believe that in Biden's mind he has already done so.  In fact the last time he wondered around on a stage shaking hands with air, in his mind he was congratulating his debate opponent.

liberals on this forum refuse to engage on topics and just snipe at people with guilt trips and personal attacks from the back row.  why should this liberal president be any different?

You’re going to see Biden in a few debates- with Donald Trump. Not with the irrelevant Democratic challengers. Incumbent Presidents don’t debate challengers from their own party. 

This is my stance.  I don't care who or how the dems get their nominee.  If the nominee is chicken and doesn't debate the opposing parties nominees, that's a bad sign.

I think there is something wrong with him. 

I think he has the clear signs of dementia, you can see it when he walks, he doesn't even need to open his mouth. He loses track of his words, he mumbles, can't remember. Needs someone to constantly point him to where he needs to go, etc. Someone with their faculties in such a powerful position in our country shouldn't need to have someone do these things, IMO. He's the FOCKING President. He can't follow basic instructions like a kindergartener. 

There is a LOT of hatred for Trump, we know that his opposers will stop at NOTHING. He's STILL having to go to court for things. Their hatred is STRONG. If he is elected it will be another 4 years of fake impeachments, trying to scrounge up shiiite on him. More wasted money.

[seafoam1 2,799]

Biden's best shot at being president again and to ruin this country even more, is to shut his mouth, hide in his mom's basement, and let the idiot liberal voters do the rest.
