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

    That might make Mr. Trump a winner, again.

          Geoarge, we have great minds alike! I was thinking the exact same thing. 555

            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.

            Thank you for your attention to this matter.

              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.

                      Have you considered donning a sandwich board and handing out leaflets with Trump’s full name and photo at your local Wal-Mart parking lot?

                              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.

                                      I think it unwise on his part. People watching may decide they don't miss him after all and there are some very smart candidates.

                                      I certainly hope so.
