(NPR) Trump and Harris have agreed to a Sept. 10 presidential debate on ABC, network says

If Trump's down in the polls, he'll have to continue to try to debate no matter what. He faces a plethora of criminal counts if he loses the election. All of which are believed to be more easily provable than the recent criminal case he lost. He's desperately fighting for his freedom.

I predicted a few days ago that Vance would be replaced on the ticket. It could still happen if trump doesn't see an improvement in the polls soon.

Interesting thought. Yeah, it could happen. Nothing's beyond Trump when he's faced with his failures.

Remember, he's running to stay out of prison. He's a desperate man.

Oh, she'll debate him, I just question if anything she says will be able to pierce the right-wing brain rot.

Just read the crap many of the Conservatives on this board continue to post. They just parrot whatever Trump and the right-wing media tell them to think. He's literally saying he won the Florida case. He told them if Biden wins, we'll have a Depression. NOTHING... they just continue to support a man who flat-out lies to them on a daily basis. Another debate where he lies the entire time won't help with them. I just hope she'll be able to reach the remaining undecided.

Apparently, in WI & MI, Tim Walz is doing a good job of inviting moderate Republicans to vote for Harris. It's pretty much "come-on in, you can see it's not so bad".

According to a cable pundit, Trump is really apoplectic watching Walz do this.

In retrospect, Harris picking a guy that knows how to win in Republican districts may have been a good move!

The funniest part is that Harris basically ignored Trump into submission.

That's how you have to deal with spoiled children sometimes.

Haha! You are so right.

"Ignored into submission"

Awesome phrase! (y)
 
Chomsky said:
Harris is indeed calling the terms. Leaders don't need to debate. Losers do. Trump's at her mercy, in terms of debating. Unless he can force the issue politically, which he hasn't been able to do.

Ahh….so it’s all good. She will agree to all three debates then! Good to know

After a recent spate of polls showing Vice President Harris catching and eclipsing Former President Trump in the polls, a Marquette University poll this morning shows Harris opening up a 6 pt lead over Trump.

Hours later, Mr. Trump not only is giving the Vice President everything she wants in her ABC debate - but wants two more debates to boot!

What's that saying?

The saying should be 'road kill' after she runs him over in a debate.

Trump agreed to ABC months ago, so how is it a problem?



Trump gets his chance. Let him prosecute his case.

As IO said, your side is highly skilled at indoctrination and propaganda because 95% of MSM is heavily Democrat and all they need do is tell the press the narrative of the day and the oblige with the latest that Trump backed out. She is horrible and won't give interviews because of her incoherent responses. She will lose bigly in the debate and go back into hiding and hoping the press will keep saying she is Margaret Thatcher.
 
Chomsky said:
She's ahead.

And? Someone is always ahead. She may not be in September. You all were on here complaining that Trump was too chicken to debate, Now he is willing to do three debates, seems to me he isn’t chicken now. Let’s hope she agrees to all three debates. America deserves to see as much of both of them being asked questions, and answering questions. Right?

Are you sure you're on a political board?

Losers want to debate, winners don't. For obvious reasons.

In addition: When it's working & you have momentum, don't break it.

This isn't even politics 101. It's politics 01.

Think of this for a moment, what would the trump world act like if she backed out of the debate? No matter how many times trump didn't debate his opponents, they would go wild calling her a coward.

Ahhh….ok. Let’s see how that plays out for you. I am looking forward to seeing Harris actually address the press after three weeks of no questions. There is no pandemic, she can’t avoid the press forever. Personally, I hope for three debates as like I said previously it would be good for our Country to see both candidates presenting their plan for our Country and actually BEING pressed on their actual answers. Once again, go back and read the many posts in which Trump was called “chicken” for not agreeing immediately to debates. Now it appears someone else is struggling with agreeing to three debates. It is what it is.

Go read the responses from @Mycroft In the other threads. It's just embarrassing. It's like these people have zero respect for themselves.
Why would I ever vote for anyone who acts this way?

One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.

The humiliation is a feature, it binds them even more to Trump.

Now do you think Harris will show up? I am quite sure she is afraid to debate Trump.

Can you imagine the quantity of word salads?!!? I hope for the country's sake, she shows up sober.

Yep. But in political terms, she needs to take the ABC debate.

However I will say Harris may be hitting the point where's she's freaking-out her opponent. That's when the real fun & opportunity may start!

My gut feeling is if & when Trump collapses, it might be spectacular in personal effect.

I don't agree with the above. The purpose of presidential debates isn't to challenge losers. It's to inform the public.

Buckle up, for Kamala word salads to come.
