In a particularly tense moment during the first presidential debate on Tuesday night, both Chris Wallace and President Donald Trump pressed Democratic nominee Joe Biden to answer whether or not he would pack the Supreme Court if he won the presidency and Democrats took the Senate next year. As Trump pressed Biden, the Democrat said, Would you shut up, man? and added, This is so unpresidential.
Wallace noted that Democrats, not President Donald Trump, brought up the issue of packing the Supreme Court.
Are you willing to tell the American people tonight whether you will support ending the filibuster or packing the Court? Wallace asked.
Biden began to circle around the issue, dodging the question. Whatever position I take in that, that will become the issue. The issue is the American people should speak. You should go out and vote. Youre in voting now. Vote and let your senators know
Are you going to pack the Court? Trump pressed.
Biden repeated himself, vote and let your senators know
Are you going to pack the Court? He doesnt want to answer the question, the president added.
Im not going to answer that question, Biden responded.
Why arent you going to answer that question? Trump pressed.
Would you shut up, man? the Democrat responded.
The president took a different tack. Who is on your list, Joe? he asked.
This is so unpresidential, Biden responded.
Who is on your list, Joe? Trump repeated.
President Donald Trump has released his list of potential Supreme Court justices before the 2016 election and before this election. Amy Coney Barrett, the current nominee, was on the presidents list. Joe Biden has refused to release a list, claiming that he would get advice from the Senate first.

Trump has the bully pulpit and he should use it for all the reasons you stated.
I'm surprised Republican pundits did not pick up on that and rub Biden's nose in it.
Again, Trump was a fool to allow a Trump HATER, like Wallace, to be the moderator. He never learns. Trump was warned. Levin or Pirro would have been obvious choices.
Its the same as the deplorables comment. Its time for US to speak up and ask questions LOUDLY.
NOTE: Read the Seven Powers of Questions book. Power 7: Questions get people to sell (persuade) themselves.
Biden musta got advice from loser Hillary.....she famously denigrated Trump supporters as deplorables.
I believe Joe did answer the question by evading the question. His answer was and is Yes.

Joe said that you have to vote for the candidate to find out what is in the administration’s plans.
Chris Wallace failed as a moderator when he did not rebuke or chastise Joe Biden for the term Clown among others.
Maybe Joe was trying to provoke a punch in the jaw from Donald. Joe would’ve earned it.
320,000,000 Justices for life. And with pensions!
Fox and Wallace were embarrassing. Not one issue was Biden forced to answer. There has to be one just one who does not work at OAN who is honest and believes their job is to get answers not socialist talking points
Talking points taken from Hillary and Nancy. No wonder Biden looks like he should be wearing a pussy hat.

SHUT UP, MAN!
Objective Accomplished!”
Agreed!
Hidens flustering and refusal to answer the SCOTUS packing question obviously means that YES! is the answer.
And his subsequent telling the sitting POTUS WILL YOU SHUT UP, MAN!, along with his other attempts of insulting the POTUS shows his utter arrogance.
Worse yet, when Biden meets a real enemy that attitude will result in the death of many American soldiers.
Exactly right. Double down on the pressure.
A few days ago I heard Kamala say that the “riots, burning and looting were not going to stop even after the election and that they should continue and she supports that.”
That is golden. That should be shown far and wide.
In my experience in debates on social media and other places the one who resorts to this type of reply has lost the argument.
The obvious conclusion is he wont say yes, Ill pack the court if Democrats regain control because he knows thats too controversial.
Why is CBS radio advertising Biden campaign shut up T-shirts but not his refusal to answer the court packing question
Obama was the one talking us to death
