In this case he just looks like a complete tool however. Kamala didn’t back out of the Fox debate, it was never agreed to. If they don’t debate at least twice, one can be on his safe space FOX, then it will be weak as hell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squistion 2,203 Posted August 4, 2024 38 minutes ago, 5-Points said: Trump, magnanimously agreed to Biden's "I'm cognitively impaired and bright lights and large crowds trigger my dementia" rules. Unless Commiela suffers from the same disabilities, she shouldn't be afforded the same concessions. It's really simple. The fact that so many of you have a hard time grasping that concept is telling. You don't think she can debate Trump without the special rules agreed upon for a demented old man. You're basically admitting she was a DEI hire and isn't fit for the job. First time I have ever seen the words "Trump" and "magnanimous" used in the same sentence and it will probably be the last. Calling Kamala a Commie will resonate about as well with voters as saying "She Ain't Black" - so keep it up. I don't think anyone in their right mind would want to debate Trump if he is allowed to constantly interrupt them like he did with Biden in 2020. Plus a debate is not a game show, so he shouldn't be allowed to bring his own cheering section (hence the no audience rule). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MDC 7,432 Posted August 4, 2024 I watched the first hour of the first debate and thought the moderators did a really good job of asking direct questions and letting the candidates answer. Cutting the mics so it didn’t devolve I to cross talk was a great idea. I’m not sure what Don’s issue with that venue or format was, but sobbing is his default setting.

thegeneral 3,214 Posted August 4, 2024 Nate Silver today: After another day of strong polling, Kamala Harris has pulled ahead of Donald Trump for the first time since the forecast launched. Although the race is still a toss-up, Harris leads Trump by 1.4 points in our national polling average, and has a 51 percent chance of winning the electoral college 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Practically it matters because Trump is scared of debating her Trump loves to perform in front of a crowd. He agreed to debate Biden in a dark, empty auditorium because bright lights and large crowds are a distraction for someone with Joe's cognitive disabilities and would be detrimental to his ability to debate. Trump knew how bad off Biden was so he made concessions that he knew wouldn't cost him anything. He knew he'd win the debate regardless. If Harris needs those same concessions, most importantly having the questions in advance, it proves she's the one who is afraid of a straight up debate. And so are all of you. Hence the about Trump renegotiating the terms. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
