I still don’t understand why Biden is going to debate Trump. The only format I would accept is if the moderators are required to interrupt when a falsehood is said.

This should be obvious but it should be said over and over, especially because of typical “it’s more complicated” equivocations by MSM when attempting to analyze Trump’s both sides statement.

Trump’s utter lack of empathy and Biden’s deep understanding of it is going make for sime interesting comparisons. It should be woven into all the debates.

They have a long way to fall. They are dangling by a thread waiting for more stimulus. The Fed says their toolbox is about empty.

If it’s gonna fall, I would prefer sooner than later.

It could be rather entertaining since Trump will be present but not all there.

I understand it’s harder to get excited about Biden’s competence. It’s like everyone is strung out on trump crack and needs a hit. But the MSM needs to try at least to be excited that we have a chance to get off this rollercoaster and return to a sense of normalcy.

Biden was quite skillful debating Paul Ryan, who’s no less of a liar than Trump is. He receives much less credit for his incisive comebacks than criticism for his occasional gaffe.

So Trump claims.

Whole thing backfired, though, when his base tried to “copycat” and threw packages of instant ramen.

The only one I would accept is if Trump were fitted with an electric shock collar.

Full on paranoid delusional now seems to be within Donnie’s reach.
Unfortunately, there are 35 - 40% of the American electorate who’ll happily follow him down that rabbit hole, come Hell or high water.
