    You know this reminds me

    Biden and Trump agreed to 2 debates, but since Biden is no longer in the running, do we think she picks up round 2 (assuming she is the nominee, of course)? Or does she have more than half an ounce of sense?

      A debate would likely work in her favor:

      • Needs exposure and an opportunity to get a fawning lib media cycle
      • Pretty sure Trump has taken a hit in the polls after every debate where he faced a live opponent; he is a piece of shit and constantly reminds people
      • Trump also looked real old at the last debate, but that was overshadowed by Biden’s brain shutting down

      It'll produce some great content whatever the outcome.

        Yeah they both looked like shit walking onto the stage, wasn't until Biden started talking that there was an obvious difference between the two

        I still think she is so deeply uncharismatic it will work against her, even though her opponent is approaching death's door himself

        I hope we get to see though

      I think Kamala doesn't have a choice. She has to debate him to get the exposure and make her candidacy viable.

      I think if she debates Trump she's going to get her ass handed to her.

        If she can basically do the same thing Biden tried, which was call Trump out for lieing over and over again, except do it loudly and coherently -- coherently enough as in the words are not slurring and whispered into the microphone -- then I think it'll go well for her

      No. Biden agreed to two debates and as an Irishman needs to hold true to his word and debate Trump despite no longer running.
