PALM BEACH, FL — Despite choosing to not participate in the Republican primary debates, former President Donald Trump announced he will be live-streaming the debates so he can make off-the-cuff wisecracks and insult the other candidates in the style of the beloved television series Mystery Science Theater 3000.

"It'll be the greatest debate broadcast of all time," Trump said in the announcement on his Truth Social account. "The only reason anyone wants to watch the debate is if I'm there to tell the truth about these other WEAK candidates. That is why I will be streaming the debate LIVE with my own commentary as an homage to the beautiful show MST3K. Look for my silhouette at the bottom of the screen. It will be the blackest, most beautiful silhouette, and my commentary will STEAL the show, just like the rigged 2020 election was STOLEN from me! MAGA!"

I'm very interested to hear what all the candidates say except for the one who won't be there.

N00b! To quote @Jolly :

1. Don't listen to what they say, look at what they do.
2. All politicians lie all the time.

Will the Fort Bragg name change be mentioned?

How about the Redskins name change?

Will the word woke be used? The democrats are apparently trying to make it go away.

Will Oliver Anthony get mentioned? Why?

Will Mr. Putin be blamed for the plane crash?

Will any pledge not to vote for Mr. Trump?

Will any promise to accept the results of the election?

Will Tucker get a mention? Positive or negative?

George, you could probably put together a BINGO with sayings or words on them that the candidates will probably say.

Isn't there a drinking game like that? LOL

a drinking game

NRO:

Drink, if . . .

• Ron DeSantis says, “At the end of the day” (one sip, fearing early-onset overconsumption)
• A question mentions Trump but the answer doesn’t
• Vivek Ramaswamy claims journalists took his conspiracy-theory comments out of context
• DeSantis calls Ramaswamy “Fake Vivek” or “Vivek the Fake”
• Any candidate mentions Joe Biden’s mental acuity (just a sip, otherwise, like Biden, you’ll have trouble remembering where you are)
• Doug Burgum pulls a Paul Pierce and runs onto the debate stage after suffering a leg injury
• Nikki Haley criticizes Trump and then defends him against the same attack ten minutes later
• DeSantis uses the phrase “territorial dispute” — or “mind virus”
  Ramaswamy stops the debate to point out federal agents in the crowd
• Chris Christie squares up to the camera and says, “I want to talk to the folks at home for a second . . .”
• Mike Pence says “lodestar”
• Burgum offers the audience money in exchange for their votes
• Ramaswamy offers the audience more money immediately after
• Ramaswamy claims Elvis is still alive and living in Cuba with Tupac
• Halfway through the debate, Francis Suarez can be heard banging on the arena doors
• Tim Scott goes after DeSantis on Florida’s curriculum
• Kari Lake breaks into the spin room
• The arena lights go out, the Undertaker’s music starts playing, and Trump materializes on the stage (grab the nearest handle and chug)

Good luck!

I think the best option might be to start drinking 4 hours before it starts.

Too late.

Yeah, by about 3 years.

Vivek: "Everyone has their pre-packaged slogans out. Now let's talk about issues."

[George K]

Christie: "We're listening to a guy who says he's a 'skinny guy with a funny last name.' Well, the last time we heard that was from Obama.

Vivek: "Yeah and you hugged him."

Gloves are really off tonight.

[Mik]

Vivek is not looking too good. Nikki is the adult in the room.

[Copper]

Oliver Anthony, first question

[Horace]

Vivek is overboard with the antics. And calling climate change a hoax probably won't help him as far as ideas and policies go.
