    If your campaign is based on personal attacks on your opponent then, yes, you have less time to prepare. However, the switch should be pretty simple. Joe has dementia, and is the head of a criminal family, while Kamala is a whore, doesn’t know whether she is black or Indian and has an annoying laugh.

    It's hard for me to comprehend why anyone gives a shit about a debate. Trump is right. We know what's what. &, if you are undecided, you suck, & there are better ways to decide than a debate.

    Have you not paid attention to any of my posting? Aren’t I frequently critical of the left? I was calling out Biden to drop out well before that debate.

    I don’t think I’ve seen you say anything negative about the right that is unreasonable. Given you are “from” the right, it stands to reason you aren’t going to be making frivolous criticisms of them. I give you credit for being one of the few who can actually call out the idiocy.

    At the risk of armchair message board psychoanalysis, I’ve seen this quite a bit on political message boards. I see it more from the right, because it is the most obvious to me, but it happens on the left too.

    Of those relatively few who are willing to break with Trump, there are various shades of opposition. The furthest is full anti Trump - aka the Bulwark, Lincoln project, etc. Then there is the other side that says they don’t like Trump but spend 99.8% criticizing the left, including criticizing the criticism of Trump the “anti-anti Trump” / the left has “TDS blah blah blah”. You seem to fall somewhere in the middle - you will forthrightly criticize Trump, but really seem to look hard for instances on the left to criticize, including trivial and non sensical ones like this.

    It may seem like I pick on you at times, but it’s because having a debate with a full blown MAGA type is mostly a waste of time.

    Risky for sure. I thought she might float a compromise, with an offer for two debates, one on Fox and one on another network, putting the ball back in Trump’s court. Hopefully, a deal gets worked out somehow.

    The deal is that his orange fat butt should show up to the one he said he would on ABC and then a Fox debate could be negotiated but not 100% on Trump's terms.

    I think she called the orange titty baby’s bluff. I think he does the ABC debate. He’ll be trailing in the polls by then and will need to debate more than she does.

    Given the visceral hate for trump in the media, at least fox probably won't give kamala the answers ahead of time.

    I don’t care that it would be on Fox but the live audience is stupid. Trump wants a room full of his sycophants to cheer everything he says. Hard pass on that crap.

    The felon wants another scripted episode of the Apprentice in his controlled studio. He negotiated a debate on ABC so that's what should happen.

    Please direct me to the lies about Trump?
    And exactly how do you know what I do delete? Do you have some hidden code to the Mod forum where you can see deleted threads?
    You "won't point them out" because you can't.

    Regardless you are still dodging my question.

    Please do tell how you justify your immigration position with Christian beliefs. I've given you several verses, so just gove me at least one to counter it.

    Simple BS. We delete all sorts of things. Mostly when REPORTED. Because we dont read everything.

    So if you are going to call us out, publicly,than show me the lies we are leaving in thread titles.

    And then go look at a couple certain righties who post stuff that gets proven wrong and they then bail on their own threads. We dont delete those either.

    That same press that drove Joe Biden out of the race due to his age but refuses to discuss Trump's cognitive decline?

    That not only sounded very accurate, but it also sounded like a great AI prompt, so I had to see what OpenArt would come up with.

    Not great... but ok.

    Look. It boils down to at my core I still take issues with much of the "progressive/tolerance" the left pretends to espouse. That is why i speak louder at them perhaps.

    This one to me, is a strategic debate and I simply think the Democrats blew this. They let this go on too soon. They knew internally but only bailed when it leaked out during the debate.
    (I know you called for it earlier. Apologies if i implied otherwise).

    I dont feel like STRATEGICALLY Trump owns them anything. Again, its like the sports analogy. No reason to risk a turnover right after your opponent just fumbled.

    That press was telling us he was fine until they knew we wouldnt believe them anymore.

    Even CNN admited it and called itself out after the fact...

    Trump is a lot of terrible things, but he is far ahead of Joe in cognizance.
