I have a proposal…
He’s lying. He wouldn’t do it if it was moderated by Jon Stewart or Mehdi Hasan.
There’s zero chance his handlers will let him debate anyone, let alone Biden. I’m not saying Biden is fantastic or anything, it’s just that Trump is unable to string coherent thoughts together anymore. It’s never been his forté, but these days? Sheesh. Dude’s not making any sense at all and can barely read from the teleprompter. Intelligently coming up with retorts on the fly in a debate? I doubt he’ll even understand why Obama’s suddenly an elderly white guy.
If Mehdi Hasan did it they both wouldn’t show up.
That would be great if he was actually able to debate. Instead, he’ll interrupt and yell, sling insults, and not answer any questions. Biden should 100% not debate him. He should say “I’m not going to debate with a felon, or anyone that is responsible for an insurrection”
Oh, Biden should agree to debate. But with rules to cut Trump’s mic when it isn’t his turn to talk.
Trump would never agree to that.
You’d have to toss his ass into a sound proof booth.
Then the problem becomes “The evil dems wouldn’t even let me talk, they just cut my mic. I couldn’t say anything” Aaaaaand his cult shines up their pitchforks.
They cut his mic in later 2016 debates, as I recall.
He will make those claims no matter what. When he refuses to debate, he will blame democrat rules or some such nonsense.
Anywhere AND anyplace? Stable genius. Given his bouts with slurring and dementia I’d like to see him get shredded by Biden.
Nobody wants to see 2 old men ramble incoherently at each other. Right now trump is the more cognitively capable of the 2, unfortunately. Though it’s certainly close.
covfefe
So this means he’s Definitely refusing to debate him. What a shit. Murica, you vote this guy in and I think I’m all out of sympathy.
Dude it’s not me, it’s them. There’s a weird division in this country and for some reason there are people on the other side.
Bro I’m a leftist and I’m voting for Trump this time. If you want to win, don’t run a genocider. Myself and other leftists have a few very hard and fast rules, and genocide is one of them. Id rather have J6 #2 than trail of tears #2

Trump is a “genocider” and he’ll expand upon the genocide already being committed, while cutting all attempts to provide aid to Gaza, closing our borders to refugees and torpedoing any chance of a free and fair elections again.
If you vote trump because he’s not currently the president during this current iteration of Israel+Palestine violence, then you are a fucking moron. That’s a collective “you” by the way, no one in particular.
He might do that. But we all know that trump saying something has a very low correlation with him actually doing it. He ended the war in Afghanistan, a war which Biden spent 8 years overseeing and not ending. And I don’t think trump can personally gain from the genocide continuing, so I don’t see a reason he wouldn’t end this too. Trump has a history of peace, his rhetoric isn’t as bad as Bidens, what he actually says he will do isn’t as bad as what Biden says he will do, AND… he isn’t currently the guy doing it. I pretty much only care about this issue at this point, and I just don’t see trump actually being worse than Biden on it. Biden’s handlers care about maintaining the military industrial complex. Trump’s handlers care about scamming the government $1 million at a time. If the end result is Trump steals a billion dollars and attempts a coup again, that is a fantastic outcome for us.
He might do that.
He might. He also has a history of enacting racist and anti-muslim policies to throw meat to his moronic base of chuds. He also has a history of backing Israel, such as backing them creating illegal settlements in the west bank. So I believe trump, and his republican ilk will jump at the chance to use our military and financial institutions to harm Palestinians, as the historically have for the last 60+ years.
But we all know that trump saying something has a very low correlation with him actually doing it.
All the more reason not to trust him as the president.
He ended the war in Afghanistan, a war which Biden spent 8 years overseeing and not ending.
No, he didn’t. He made the same commitment to end the war, after his presidency, that every president since Bush has made. Only Biden was willing to take the actual blame for pulling out of that quagmire.
Trump has a history of peace
No he doesn’t. He ordered a drone strike on an Iranian general in another sovereign country on a diplomatic mission. Mainly because he wanted to brag about killing “terrorists”, since the Obama admin got to take down Bin-Laden.
I pretty much only care about this issue at this point…
And yet you have selected the almost universally recognized, absofuckinglute worst possible person to end this peacefully.
Please stop. Just stop. Trump has never made anything better, ever. Period. Full stop. Don’t vote for him.
Afaik, Biden could not possibly have gotten out of Afghanistan in 2-3 months without actual moves that were made by the trump admin.
Idk how the drone strike issue lines up, but I mean, at least the ones trump did hit military personnel. Obama went after all of: an American citizen, a wedding, and a hospital. Trump could certainly be worse than Obama on that though.
It’s not like I want to vote for trump. I’m just obviously going to pick the doofus con artist over the guy currently committing a genocide. I would vote for trump over Hitler, Stalin, and Pol Pot too, to be clear. Yeah, trump might just keep doing it. But he also might not. And we know Joe ain’t gonna do shit to end it.
What the fuck mate.
Trump literally just said “time to finish the problem” regarding the Israeli bombardment of Gaza.
I know it’s a shit choice, but it’s the choice between the status quo of global imperialism, or global imperialism AND domestic fascism.
I don’t want either of these things, but I really don’t want to get executed at home.
Okay but we all know we can’t believe anything trump says, especially anything he only says once. He didn’t even build the wall last time, and he said that thousands of times. What he did do is get us out of Afghanistan. So yes, he MIGHT keep doing the genocide, but Biden definitely will. Trump is the only president in 50 years (maybe 100 or 150?) to not start a new war. So if we’re going off what he each man actually DID, trump is the obvious choice, because he didn’t do a genocide and did end a war.
Leftist my fuckin ass. Go away liar.
No wait, you have to call me a Russian troll first, or else you haven’t finished deflecting an argument you’ve already lost. Do you even know the first thing about being a lib online?
Trump said he’d make the courts partisan and he did exactly that. Now we have some of the most extreme right wing federal courts, and an extremist christofascist supreme court.
Alabama declared that IVF embryos are children. A federal court is arguing that FDA overstepped in approval of mifeprostone, an abortifacient and uterotonic medication that is considered essential to first world medical care. Roe v. Wade overturned. Gay marriage on the docket. Interracial marriage in their sights.
Do you really want to have Gilead at home?
Okay, so nominate a guy who isn’t genocidal. Leftists arent going to vote for a genocider, so give us somebody we can vote for. If I knew for a fact Trump would overturn roe v wade, and also attempt another coup, id still vote for him, because he didn’t do a genocide. Like I’ve said, I’ll take J6 part 2 over trail of tears part 2 every time.
We are NOT asking that much. Literally all we want is a guy who hasn’t already committed a genocide. If y’all can’t give that to us, it is not OUR fault when roe v wade gets overturned, it’s yours. You didn’t give us a choice in the matter. Waving off genocide warning signs is exactly how Germany got Hitler, and if the American voter does NOTHING else, the least we can possibly do for the world is not have a second Holocaust.
I don’t care how it happens, but I think I speak for all true leftists when I say we will never vote for a genocider, period. I agree with you that trump is awful, but the Democrats have made him the only valid choice, and so I will be voting for the only candidate that good people are allowed to vote for. If Dems actually want to defeat Trump, they’ll put up someone else. Personally I don’t actually think they give a shit, cause the spice must flow.
I’m not even saying they have to oppose the genocide. Just stop funding it. Stop making me directly complicit.
We all said never again, and some of us meant it.
You don’t speak for all leftists.
Signed, a leftist.
Remember when Musk and Zuckerberg were gonna fight? Feels a lot like that, but older and somehow even less interesting.
And, somehow, even more embarrassing.
I’m baffled that the republicans thought putting a senile proven fraudster, insurrectionist and sexual predator with a bunch of pending court cases against him was a good idea…
it’s gonna be extra hilarious when he wins. (Note…I don’t live in the states)
I’m not from the US either but I can’t deal with that piece of shit. If he wins, I’m getting a dumbphone and give up on the internet and any other form of news.
i dunno. The news was a lot more entertaining with Trump in office. When he left, they went back to all statist propaganda all the time. I mean, yeah, they used Trump as statist propaganda too, but it was fucking funny and self defeating. What i get now is the news telling us it’s good that Trudeau is making it illegal to say what you think.
Gtfo Russian bot
“One of us! One of us!”
Biden is so slow, he would never even get to speak. The other old moron would just yell delusional nonsense non-stop.
The fucking clash of the farts that should be in special care.
EDIT: to any US people thinking both sides bad: Biden is a functional old man, Trump is a christo-fascist moron who will rip the US from the international community. Also an old man.
Will you shut up, man.
Invite that dumbass to a debate and spring a geography and US history test on him. It’ll be hilarious.
He’ll just yell and talk over anything anyone says. It doesn’t matter what you bring to the table.
You’d just need a moderator and TV network with enough balls to shut it down if he steps out of line. So, short answer, you’re right. It would never work.
