    I’m totally ok if Trump backs out of this.

    But keep in mind he’s done this in previous debates too. Remember when Megan Kelly was all mean to him?

      Serious question who thought it was a good idea to have three of these debates instead of two like 2016?

      I'd guess team Trump.

        Personally, I think it works to Trump’s benefit. He would be much better at tossing emojis into the screen while his opponent is talking 💩

          I dunno, but I think that in coming ekections, they ought to do multiple mini-debates, limited to a single subject.

            @George-K

            It depends a bit on when the decisions were made.

            Did team trump know they’d be this far behind?

              If I am VP Biden, I am sitting looking at the camera at the scheduled time. Camera comes in with a double screen - VP Biden in one side and the other blank. Would not be good look for President Trump.

              However, I know that wouldn’t happen.

                It could be a re-run of the famous debate between Clint Eastwood and a non-existent Barack Obama, which Clint somehow managed to lose.

                  Very smart of the Biden campaign. Make it official before Trump changes his mind. And it’s Trump’s fault.

                  When you’re leading by double digits, you don’t want to debate.

                    I wouldn't say it's smart.

                    Biden is creating a new scarlet letter, except this one is a "C". I think it also reinforces the Bunker Theory...How can you govern in a bunker?

                      If by bunker you mean "running over video conferencing" - I think pretty much every F500 company is being run from a bunker right now.

                          He’s not running the country, he’s running for president. And his deliberate strategy of letting Trump run against himself seems to be paying off. If the polls are any indication.

                            Agree.

                            As I say before, the best campaigner for VP Biden is President Trump.

                              He’s such a whiny fucking bitch. The little snowflake did this in 2016 too.

                              I hope Biden stays firm.

                                Down 10 points with three weeks left, Trump’s a beggar, not a chooser. He shouldn’t have bluffed if he didn’t want to have it called.

                                      Trump is still a COVID-19 patient with potential to infect others. It would be highly irresponsible to do a “townhall” style debate in person with that contagion potential. Going virtual is the right and responsible call.

                                        His doctor says he’s totally safe.

                                        This is the same doctor who thought it was “notable“ that antibodies could be detected in Trump’s blood 48 hours after they infused 8 fucking grams of them into his bloodstream.

                                          Dr. Anthony Fauci, the government’s top infectious disease expert, said two negative PCR lab tests 24 hours apart are a key factor in determining whether someone is still contagious.

                                          “So, if the president goes 10 days without symptoms, and they do the tests that we were talking about, then you could make the assumption, based on good science, that he is not infected,” Fauci said Thursday on MSNBC.
