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.

Based off some stuff I’ve seen this morning this was accurate.

albionmoonlight 10-08-2020 06:30 AM

Didn't watch. From what I see here and on social media, this seemed pretty typical and unlikely to change minds.

albionmoonlight 10-08-2020 06:37 AM

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.

just posted this over in the trump thread. He is going to lose his damn mind now that the decision has been made and he can't put it all on Biden being scared, etc...

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.

Don't forget their gender!

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.

Trump ain't gonna be happy about that.

Yeah I didn't figure it out until I read some of the comments, so you (and I) were not the only ones fooled.

LOL, now ABC has announced it will be doing a Town Hall with Biden on Oct 15. The Biden campaign just took Trump's game playing and smacked him across the face with it.

JediKooter 10-08-2020 04:18 PM

At this point, it almost looks intentional that trump is trying to throw the election.
