Maher: Biden Would Have Avoided Debates if He Was Winning, Trump Wouldn’t Avoid Them
Breitbart ^ | 05/18/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 05/18/2024 10:56:34 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher reacted to President Joe Biden and 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump agreeing to two presidential debates by stating that the agreement to have the debates shows that Biden “knows he’s losing, because else he wouldn’t have agreed” to debate because “Only the loser wants to debate.” Maher also stated that Trump would want to debate regardless of how he was doing in the polls because “Trump always wants a crowd.”

Biden doesn't know anything. This is all being done by his handlers.

But Maher will vote for Crooked Joe so, not even sure why he says this unless he would prefer that the Democrats put someone else up there against Trump.

I’m still betting that Biden won’t be the Democrat candidate.

"Maher: Biden Would Have Avoided Debates if He Was Winning, Trump Wouldn’t Avoid Them"

This construction calls for the past subjunctive tense (were), not past indicative (was). I only clicked because I wanted to know if it was Maher's grammar that was that bad, or some "journalist" at Breitbart's.

There's nothing in the text of the article to indicate it was anybody's screw-up except Breitbart's.

Anyone representing themself as a member of the Fourth Estate should hire either qualified writers or qualified editors or (preferably) both. Breitbart has done neither.

Maher thought Newsom was doing a good job in California even though, when challenged, couldn’t name any accomplishment he had done other than make it rain.

“This is all being done by his handlers.”

Most likely. But only a small amount of Maher’s statement applies.

The democratic party has become the party of the most stealth. Examples are all over the place like Biden’s holding of arms to Israel, hiding the Biden family businesses and continueing graft with the Ukraine and China, the hating of the Jews so bad that they are supporting Hamas, a known murdering terrorist group from Iran, a country that has had nuclear aspirations and with the lib help is going to see those within this generation, (and they are China’s best customer for bio weapons), the destruction of freedom of speech, the bearing of arms, while lying about the abortion issue and trying to regain control of it against the Constitution and its definition of states’ rights, aiding in flooding the country with illegal aliens trying to bolster their voting base, destroying our economy to gain control of peoples lives...and that ain’t half of it.

And it is all done without even a chance for the conservatives to say yay or nay using liberal provided judges and executive decisions that should not never been allowed even if the republicans are willing to, which in most cases they aren’t.

According to Black’s Law Dictionary, an executive order is “an order issued by or on behalf of the President, intended to direct or instruct the actions of executive agencies or government officials, or to set policies for the executive branch to follow.”

So the actions he takes with these, using them for political purposes, that change the lifestyle or actions of the population should be considered illegal. And many have been. But until the republican party grows a pair and takes the actions to stop him, he and his party will continue to rape the US.

So with all these exposed negative points it doesn’t have more to do with Trump’s desire to be president than displaying for the voters, if he’s allowed, the absolute failure and graft of the liberal party led by someone no one ever sees. But Biden is the path. And his stepping in front of a camera to try to use feel good points to overcome the failures is suicide if the moderators allow Trump to speak.

When they happen, watch for the little things that can be tossed into the loop. Biden’s larger camera size, the clearing of his speech with delay, the cutting off of Trump early or on time and not Biden, the approach of the moderators comments, time allowed and positions of commercials to allow certain points to sink in, lighting, camera angles, moderator remarks and voice loadness and wording in trying to stop the talker...many more that can be used to change the opinion and appearance of the debate. They will use them as they will have to assist to put out fires. And it is CNN...which makes it obvious it will happen.

Yes, Trump wants a crowd, but debating isn’t his forte. He’s avoided them before. After all, he gets plenty of “crowd” with his rallies, and he doesn’t have to put up with leftists rigging the show. He’s in a position of strength this time becayse of Biden’s dementia, so he’s going to take advantage of that.

By agreeing to a June debate Trump has provided the rats with an off ramp. If Traitor Joe totally screws despite the rig job this debate is, the rats will be able to dump him before or at the Convention. Trump gave them exactly what they wanted across the board and got nothing in return.

So does Biden, but he can't attract a crowd.

Biden can’t cheat and hide this go around and has to come out of hiding. He needs to stay alive long enough for Trump to soundly beat him at the voting booth. After the election Biden can go straight to Hell, don’t pass Go, and doesn’t collect his $200.

But it’s 4D chess, you know. Just like hiring Bolton, nominating Jeff Sessions, Bill Barr etc etc.

I doubt they will debate as President Trump says he wants Biden to take a drug test first.

Maybe they’ll fill him with so many stimulants for the first debate that there may be an incident of an accidental nature.

Trump will debate. The “drug test” bit was just something he said at a rally for laughs. It’s crowd-pleasing rhetoric like “We’re gonna lock her up.”

The Biden-Trump debate will never happen! He will resign before then and will be replaced by a DNC choice.

The demonrats are backing themselves up against a wall by continuing to pretend that Biden is fit to run for re-election. They know that he has to go and it's all over for joe except the logistics......

I'm gonna miss the table cloth dresses that his missus wore......
