A brave pollster should ask the question:

If a Presidential candidate declines to participate in a debate, would you:

Many people look at the debates as a test of how well a President can stand up to foreign leaders, believing that candidates who prefer to avoid debates would not fare well in stressful foreign negotiations with unfriendly leaders.

Let's find out how much weight the voters really put on Presidential debates.

CNN Piece on What Critical Swing Voters Are Thinking Now and It’s Dynamite

Posted at 9:00 am on July 31, 2020 by Nick Arama

It’s not likely to find anything on CNN that’s favorable or even even-handed when it comes to President Donald Trump.

That’s one reason when it happens, it’s noteworthy.

But also, it’s incredibly significant information that gives us a great window into what a very important group of Americans thinks about the election and Trump.

If you just listened to the liberal media, pretty much all you would hear is polls show that Joe Biden is ahead. We saw how well that worked for them when they predicted Hillary Clinton would win in 2016.

That’s why it’s incredibly important to hear what real people are thinking.

So listen to what Rich Thau, a focus group moderator, the moderator of the Swing Voter Project, has to say.

He says he’s hearing strong support for President Trump from critical swing voters that could turn the election.

From CNN:

And, each month for the past 17 months, I’ve had a unique window into the Americans largely responsible for giving the president his slim Electoral College victory: so-called “Obama-Trump” swing voters across the upper Midwest.

Our Swing Voter Project has uncovered that many of these people, who live in places such as Canton, Ohio; Davenport, Iowa; Erie, Pennsylvania; and Macomb County, Michigan, prefer Trump over Biden. In fact, 22 of 33 respondents in these four most recent locations feel this way.

Not only are they overwhelmingly with Trump at this point, upon reflection, these voters who voted Obama and Trump would now vote for Trump over Obama in a hypothetical match-up, according to Thau.

While he notes it’s possible they still change as we move ahead, he explains why most are still supporting Trump.

Beyond the numbers, though, it’s critical to understand why so many of them continue to support Trump.

They think a businessman is best suited to turn the country around economically. They feel Covid-19 was not Trump’s fault, and he’s doing the best he can to contain it. They conflate the Black Lives Matter protesters with the rioters attacking federal buildings and retail shops. They don’t want historic monuments torn down. And they dismiss defunding the police as ridiculous.

In other words, as I previously wrote, Americans are seeing the violence and putting the blame squarely on the left. That’s not helpful to Biden and these voters are feeling it too.

These voters tell me they want America finally to be put first; they oppose immigration and trade policies they say give benefits to foreigners at their expense. And they want a non-politician who relentlessly fights back, after witnessing too many office holders fold in the face of special interests.

These voters may sound like typical Fox News watchers, but, significantly, the overwhelming majority are not. Many are, instead, people who get their news disproportionately from local television, regional websites and Facebook. Compared to the kinds of people who seek out news from national cable channels, many swing voters reside in a national politics desert.

According to Thau, most of them can’t name anything that Biden has achieved in almost 50 years in politics. That’s accurate and it’s a killer when they’re looking for an actor, not another passive politician looking to ensure his party’s power.

Worse for the former vice president, several told me Biden would be a “puppet” of others if he were elected. That’s because many are convinced he has “dementia,” and they mocked him after seeing videos of his misstatements online.

That said, these voters are under no illusions about Trump’s shortcomings. They hate the tweeting, but some tolerate it as the price for hiring the relentless fighter they want.

This is going to cause a Democratic meltdown.

A brain dead executive is the deep state's dream. People like Vindman, Comey, Brennan, Jarrett, Strozk, Paige, Kerry, Romney, think they set policy. They coerce the president to act on the behalf of those who buy and sell foreign policy.

Trump knows a sales job.

Biden is a sales job.

He will 1st pick his VP then that vp will begin speaking a lot and moving out in public.

then Joe Biden will drop out of the race with the help of hillary and michelle.

They hope to take over control of the senate to impeach trump.

I don’t think the democrats actually feel they can win the presidency.

Will they run Alzheimers 2.0?
Maybe michael o or beenie?

Doesn’t matter who they run, the goal is senate control. Period.

I am waiting to see the made up excuses for Biden not debating. I am sure the DNC and the Biden Campaign are working hard on a scenario to justify why he wont debate. Stay Tuned!

Wow. Mount St. Helens. Remember that guy who lived near there and refused to leave back in 1980? He had the same name as the President Harry Truman. They said he was buried under 150 feet of lava and that the heat was so intense he was instantly vaporized

I see many Democrats who are FED UP and are either vote for Trump or not vote at all. A national movement needs to get started for FED UP DEMOCRATS

Motto

“FED UP DEMOCRATS FOR TRUMP”

I can see Joe Biden‘s acceptance speech at the Democratic national convention.

“My name is Neil Kinnock and I want to be your Prime Minister ....”

Before the convention, the rules follow the primary and votes. Once Biden is official Asher the convention entirely different rules kick in. The DNC chair consults with the den governors and then chooses someone.

They could very easily do it and snake Bernie out again.

Quite an event. I was in CA so we didn't get the ash.

Fast forward to 2020:

The Biden and the DNC was buried under 150 feet of lava and that the heat was so intense Biden and the DNC were instantly vaporized.

Dementia Joe will not be allowed to debate Trump. His mental condition
has deteriorated a lot over the last 6 months.

The main stream media will start fixing their polls as we near the election. If, during the summer, Trump is within 10 points in the mainstream media polls, he actually ahead. From labor day to the election, the mainstream media polls will show the race “tightening.” Then, with the last set of polls, they’ll have the national number within the margun of error, and will insist that Trump is behind in the battleground states and will lose. Partly, this is to entertain their clientele and, partly, this is to cover vote fraud.

I think Biden will debate and I can’t wait. It’s going to be like that SNL skit, celebrity jeopardy with Sean Connery, complete nonsensical answers by Joe Biden.

I am one of the contrarians who has predicted that the Democrats won't replace Biden. The running mate search illustrates my rationale: The Democrats are too disunited (beyond hating Trump and Les Deplorables).

The Party insiders know Hillary missed her shot. I think Michelle Obama has too much horse sense to run. Bernie is a known leftist crank. If one looks at the Veepstakes, no one is a good choice. If it weren't for the Bat Flu, Gov. Cuomo would be plausible--but his record on nursing home deaths now dogs him.

One thing to be careful of...we need to be careful we don’t set expectations that if Joe just shows up he “wins”.

#hihdinBiden #gropingjoe #creepyjoe #senilejoe #jimcrowjoe, the only area where Biden is leading Pres. Trump is in the hastags attributed to him.
