    So, there is no live audience, and cut-off mics. Nope, Trump definitely won't be attending any debates. 🤣🤣

    There should be mandatory drug test for those seeking to put their finger on the thermonuclear button. Blue collar workers have drug test so why not elected officials??
  • I believe that if President BidenStays as far away from the things Trump is going to say to egg on anger and schoolyard name calling and stay focused on the issues, President Biden will come out the winner

    This is the kind of guardrail you'd have to put on an infant to get them to behave in public. dump is a sweating, slurring five year old who's about to explain why he's such a child that he can't follow basic rules of grownup behavior
  • Make no mistake. Trump will come up with an excuse to weasel out of the debate. Maybe blame the judge for his gag order.
  • @danguest5379
    Without the rules set forth , tfg would turn it into a clown show . Doubtful he will show up !
  • @JacobSolbux
    Martha Raddatz has nothing good to say about Biden and keeps positioning the argument to make Trump look good.
  • Pay no attention to the polls! The reality is vote blue across the board to save our democracy! Bottom line!🇺🇸🇺🇸
  • Like Trump will follow the rules. What happens if Trump is in jail?
  • @KattMom
    Rules for a debate are necessary. But, I’m not holding my breath it will take place. Vote Biden Harris 2024! 💙💙💙
  • @JacobSolbux
    Martha Raddatz seems too fond of Trump. She keeps trying to heighten Trump stuff.
  • @gregparrott
    Having only ONE microphone on at a time is an essential component. Otherwise, trump will constantly interrupt. trump may STILL interrupt by loudly commenting. Include preventative measures - selective microphones, sound shields, buzzers, etc. Also, the cameras should only show the person whose turn it is to speak. Showing trump. I don't want to see his facial gestures as a response to what Biden says
  • You can officially refer to anyone still bowing down to their orange, false idol as, "Those who worship evil's might"

    When Hillary debated TFG, he was allowed to roam around the stage like some kind of predator. He stacked the audience with Bills former accusers. I hope that this venue provides some modicum of civility. I have my doubts.
