Hold the debate anyway, and if he doesn't show up, replace him with a cardboard cutout with a recording of his greatest hits:
Sharks vs. Batteries
My Uncle The Nuclear Scientist
Inject Bleach
Shine a UV Light Inside the Body
Hannibal Lector is Awesome
Don't forget about magnets!
What do you mean? Everyone knows that magnets don’t work when they get wet
Plus all the Sir stories you can eat. I wish someone would package them into a storybook for adults that is humorous bullshit tales from Trump
Nuke the hurricanes
Can we work in the Sharpie sketch?
The revolutionary war airports.
Lmao wtf is Sharks vs Batteries
I swear every day there's some new nugget with this guy. The firehose is so big it's impossible to keep up
well, you see, electric powered boats are extremely dangerous, because if they capsize, you have to choose whether to stay near the boat and get electrocuted, or swim 10 feet away toward a hungry shark. there are no other options, you see.
lol i wish i was joking
Planes Can’t Fly When It’s Not Sunny
“Shouldn’t the Republican Party be reimbursed for fraud in that everybody around Joe, including his doctors and the Fake News Media, knew he was not capable of running for, or being, President?” Trump wrote. “Just askin’?”
Maybe this wouldn’t have happened if you had actual talking points on politics, which is what you should do when you are running for president.
Your whole strategy is slander and lying. Now you are the presidential candidate equivalent of that one guy who cries about politics in memes on a political meme board! You are admitting of literally doing this!
Fucking christ, this guy lecturing us on fraud. I swear, republicans are utterly without worth.
To be fair, he's like 34 times better at it than most people. Even the courts say so.
I like criminals who don't get caught.
well i don't like them, but they are definitely better criminals than those who did.
That is just the official count. I bet that actual number is much higher!
It's one of the things he does that absolutely infuriates me. Everyone else is a crook, a fraud, anti-american, but ol dipshit Donnie is supposed to be the beacon of truth and compassion?
Give me a fucking break...
“I object to the candidate we slandered every day and said was unfit from withdrawing from the race.”
“On what grounds?”
“It’s detrimental to my campaign.”
Ah, the Liar Liar tactic.
The Dems hadn't actually nominated anyone for this election yet, that happens during the convention which is still a few weeks from now.
and that is the problem, because he doesn't know who to attack, so he does this.
The big swings this guy takes are unbelievable. It's like he says he should be allowed to have a third term because the first didn't count because everyone didn't love him enough.
Maybe donnie should just step down now that he's so old and obviously cannot handle a debate.
If the moderators are just going to let him lie for 90 minutes without any pushback, I don't see the point in another debate.
Fuck CNN.
Let me guess, he wants the debate to not include difficult challenges like drinking water from a cup, ramps to walk on, or keeping your diaper clean.
He's not even up to the challenge of answering the questions asked in the debate. I don't even know if he can hear the questions.
Lots of people are saying that his brain issues, combined with his injured ear, impact his ability to hear the questions. They ran up to me with tears in their eyes, saying "Decrepit Don has to step down for the good of the country". I don't know. It's sad.
So, we are forced to spend time and money on fighting Crooked Joe Biden, he polls badly after having a terrible debate, and quits the race. Now we have to start all over again. Shouldn't the Republican Party be reimbursed for fraud in that everybody around Joe, including his doctors and the Fake News Media, knew he was not capable of running for, or being, President? Just askin?
Fucking lmao
Biden never even said he was incapable of running for or being president. He just said "it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down". That's it.
They're just straight up lying about Biden's statement but what's new in that regard...?
So, what he's saying is all of his spending so far has been personal attacks, and nothing of substance about policy? Because if you had been spending your money telling us all what you're planning on doing if you win, it wouldn't matter who you're running against. Oh, right, because your entire plan for presidency is project 2025 and anyone with 2 functioning brain cells thinks that plan is absolute fucking insanity, so you need to distract with personal attacks and red herrings.
What a bunch of whining losers.
its big of him to say he can't handle it. Its like his own little stepdown now that bidens been big enough to.
Cheeky Donald! Republicans committing fraud is not a basis for a refund.
He's whining and moaning, not laying groundwork.
Maybe if Trump talked about anything of substance he wouldn't be in the position of having wasted a shit load of money. Slandering Biden while also saying he was unfit to run was a risk. The real fraud is Trump taking money from gullable supporters then turning around to use it to sprew lies at the same gullable people.
Why bother? Just don't do a debate.
The fact that he's bitching about it rather than gloating means Biden made the right choice, though.
Whiny, dementia addled old man refuses to debate out of fear of being absolutely annihilated by somebody who isnt being artificially kept alive by a cocktail of drugs.
They should start the next debate with a point for point reality check on things the candidate said in the first debate. Or better, intersperse them whenever they switch the discussion topics.
