...is apparently scheduled for September. Biden claims he intends to go through with it. But should Trump participate? No, he shouldn't. Trump should invoke the "mercy rule" and decline to participate. The debate audience has already seen the naked emperor fully exposed. And chances are that in a second debate Joe will perform better, worse being impossible to imagine. In a second debate Joe's handlers will double Joe's dosage, and administer it a full hour earlier so that it kicks in before the fourth quarter. In a second debate the moderators will toss aside all the restraint they just demonstrated; they'll debate Trump themselves if necessary. In a second debate Trump's mike will be cut off every time he's about to score a point.
In past debates we've seen leftist moderators act on behalf of the dem candidate; Candy Crowley's bogus fact check for Obama comes to mind, and Gwen Ifill "moderating" while she was selling her book on "politics and race in the age of Obama". This last debate was the most fairly moderated I've seen in decades, and we certainly won't see another like it. Perhaps they intended to give Joe a chance to succeed on his own, or fail miserably so he'd drop out. But Dr. Jill has other plans, so...

I think Trump will debate. The only question will be is whether or not RFK will qualify with 4 polls giving him 15% of the support.
I think RFK added to the mix could make the debate interesting. Moderators could use RFK as the attack dog against Trump and give Biden a break by calling on him less.
I also liked Biden's suggestion. they both have to walk the course. Might take two days to complete 9 holes with Biden slow walking every 75 yards to the next shot and Trump spending so much time in the woods looking for his ball with his slice.

Trump should only debate if it is on a neutral or right leaning network / app.

He has nothing to gain debating again
He should take the high road, do a brief interview and let Biden off the hook:
“While normally I wouldnt hesitate to debate Joe any time any place, but out of respect for him and what he once was, I don’t think it’s fair to put him and his family through that again”

Moderators could use RFK as the attack dog against Trump and give Biden a break by calling on him less. Why the F—K would the man running for President of the United States, the most powerful position in the world, need a break during a debate about issues concerning the future of our country? If he needs a break during a 90 minute debate he has no business being the President. I believe to even bring up the “break” thought you know his inability to serve as president is a fact. Quit being unrealistic. Trump is the best choice we have right now. Not a great choice but certainly better than the other options. You owe it to your country to make the best choice for now.

Trump could fuck up a wet dream, he will avoid another situation that could hurt his campaign. Another opportunity to say” every legal scholar wanted Roe overturned”

How about a quick front nine on a par 3 course I'd like to see them two play golf, with official observers to stop any cheating. I doubt either one could hit below 50 on the front 9 of a par 3 course.

Another opportunity to say” every legal scholar wanted Roe overturned” Many constitutional scholars said original Roe v Wade was a bad decision... Those more acquainted with Ginsburg and her thoughtful, nuanced approach to difficult legal questions were not surprised, however, to hear her say just the opposite, that Roe was a faulty decision.
She isnt alone in that sentiment... it was only a matter of time.

Many is different than every. You and him seem to use the same language.

Biden got all his concessions on the first debate. Trump should get an 11 PM EST debate and see how the walking fossil does at that hour. The Presidency doesnt stop at 8 PM....

I was surprised that CNN did as well as they did in not allowing their bias to influence their moderation. 👍
