You gotta hand it to Joe Biden. The man knows how to steal the thunder from the twice-impeached, indicted Republican nominee-in-waiting who’s on trial for alleged illegal campaign spending.
President Biden today agreed to meet the former POTUS in a debate in June; the former guy also agreed. The two of them reportedly will meet in a venue sans audience members. It’ll just be the two of ’em in a room, along with a panel of journalists.
I kinda like the notion of the two men going head-to-head like that.
It’s interesting that the former Liar in Chief wouldn’t debate his GOP rivals during the primary campaign but jumped on the chance to joust with the president.
I understand they’ll also meet again in September, probably in a format more like what we’ve seen in recent election cycles.
Whatever. I expect this first debate could smash viewership records, given what’s at stake, which I believe could be the future of our representative democracy.
Trump has been asking Biden to debate him. He never got an answer until Biden’s poll numbers kept crashing, even after Trump’s trial started. The economy is still in the crapper, foreign policy still losing for Americans, southern border still a crisis. It’s obvious that this is a last ditch effort.
As far as no audience, they know Biden couldn’t handle an audience. He’d be even more a blathering idiot.
