    Well…. Odds of debate went up greatly. Joe dares Donnie to not show up.:

    I am going to debate Donald Trump.

    If he decides to show up, I do have a list of things I’d like to talk to him about.

    I’d like to talk about how he was the architect of the repeal of Roe v. Wade. I’d like to talk about how he represents a core threat to our democracy. I’d like to talk about how his economic plans would make him and his friends richer at the expense of working families.

    When I get up on stage, it'll be me and this grassroots team versus Donald Trump and his MAGA minions. It will be democracy versus authoritarianism. Revenge and retribution versus a forward looking vision for the future. Donald Trump versus me…and you.

    -- Joe

    Meh. Odds are 50/50 that they can both even climb the steps to the stage.

    Hopefully Donald won’t doze off as often as he did in court. I bet he’ll be sniffing as much as he lies.

    We will see if Biden is up to the task.

    Biden was seen to have won their prior debates, and Trump seems to currently be benefiting from being removed in time from the chaos of his administration. I would guess there's likely more upside for Biden than Trump with having more debates.

    Did Trump only agree to this because he thinks that he'll actually be incarcerated at the time?

    Trump could read off the contents of an old phone book and his worshippers would cheer. That said, we already know who both of these candidates are ( unless you have been under a rock for most of the last decade). A sideshow not worth watching.

    Both scheduled, one on CNN and one on ABC.

    They’ve just cut RFK Jr’s balls off.

    I think the two conditions of the debate were: (a) no RFK, and (b) mikes shut off while the other is speaking.

    Where’s the entertainment in that?!?!

    This came together too quickly for it not to have been pre-arranged.

    I'm only paying attention if there's a segment of the debate focused on whether Hannibal Lector is a real person.

    Not at all, as they both think he’s taking more of their votes.

    He’s actually moderating the ABC debate.

    This will be a cluster. I can’t think of a better symbol of the decline of American exceptionalism than watching two old men like trump and Biden debating for the presidency.
