    A debate without him present might be more fun. And more fruitful since he’d likely get criticized more. Imagine him “live truthing” the debate as his name comes up.

    Only non-witches get due process.

        That’s a good point. Maybe Biden should offer Trump his Delaware basement for sitting out the primary.

                  It occurred to me that if Trump refused debates in the primary it will be much easier for Joe to refuse them in the general.

                    Works for me. At least in the general.

                    I thought the debates were quite biased in the last cycle.

                        The debates will be a great chance for Mr. Trump to get a little publicity.

                        It couldn't hurt to get his name out there so everyone knows who he is.

                                    Trump Plans to Skip G.O.P. Debate for Interview With Tucker Carlson

                                    https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/18/us/politics/trump-debate-tucker-carlson.html

                                    Former President Donald J. Trump plans to upstage the first Republican primary debate on Wednesday by sitting for an online interview with the former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, according to multiple people briefed on the matter.

                                    In the past 24 hours, Mr. Trump has told people close to him that he has made up his mind and will skip the debate in Milwaukee, according to two of the people briefed on the matter.

                                    Mr. Trump is notoriously mercurial, and left himself something of an out to change his mind with an ambiguous post on his website, Truth Social, on Thursday. He wrote that he’s polling well ahead of his rivals and added, “Reagan didn’t do it, and neither did others. People know my Record, one of the BEST EVER, so why would I Debate?”

                                      Ramaswamy will pwn any debate stage. Trump is tactically wise not engaging one on one with him.

                                        Ramaswamy will pwn any debate stage. Trump is tactically wise not engaging one on one with him.

                                        And Vivek has some really large hands. I mean massive.

                                          Trump Plans to Skip G.O.P. Debate for Interview With Tucker Carlson

                                          https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/18/us/politics/trump-debate-tucker-carlson.html

                                          Former President Donald J. Trump plans to upstage the first Republican primary debate on Wednesday by sitting for an online interview with the former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, according to multiple people briefed on the matter.

                                          In the past 24 hours, Mr. Trump has told people close to him that he has made up his mind and will skip the debate in Milwaukee, according to two of the people briefed on the matter.

                                          Mr. Trump is notoriously mercurial, and left himself something of an out to change his mind with an ambiguous post on his website, Truth Social, on Thursday. He wrote that he’s polling well ahead of his rivals and added, “Reagan didn’t do it, and neither did others. People know my Record, one of the BEST EVER, so why would I Debate?”
