the scheduled presidential debate on June 27 will be the most crucial test to determine Biden’s mental acuity. The pressure on Biden to “ace” the debate will be enormous. His latest gaffe is not creating confidence among his supporters

“The moderators are going to be pounding the mute button so Trump won’t be able to get a word in edgewise.”

**************

No CNN “moderator” wants to be accused of giving Trump an inch. It would destroy their career.

*Trump needs to preemptively state he will debate RFK one-on-one.*

That’s good. Biden could replace Kamala with Jr. Bite the bullet. Blacks would go along.

Then there’s the trick he pulled with Hillary just before one debate. Brought out the women Bill groped. Trump would make just a couple of statements to get it straight beforehand. By ‘it’ I’m talking anything they’re. sure to bring up that would pin on him.

Mods will limit interaction between the two; questions by them and answers to them.

All that matters is a few soundbites and clips and the coverage. I wish President Trump well!

Don’t forget about the CNN “moderators”. Their function will be to protect Biden from every angle of attack and make Trump look as bad as possible. And they have had plenty of time to rehearse ways of doing it.

I think a lot of people are in denial about the extent of the role the “moderators” are going to play in terms of manipulating perceptions to Biden’s advantage. I doubt that Trump is even ready for the degree to which they will go to silence him. This is not going to be your grandfather’s style of debate.

This is existential stuff to the Left. This event will be staged and managed like no other one before it. Nothing left to chance.

Debate prediction.

CNN hosts will have distracting questions about race, LGBT, etc. Biden will boilerplate, trump will quickly turn to attacking Biden. CNN will mute his mike during his answer time. The debate will continue with several mutings. Trump will use this in his campaign.

Interesting question in the headline.

However, I think no matter what he does, the MSM will say he “aced” it.

This debate is set up to cater to Biden’s needs. He will come out alright because people’s expectations are so low. Just by getting through it, the main stream media will say he won.

Trump should wear his own wireless mic and keep talking - every word livestreamed over TruthSocial.

“CNN will mute his mike during his answer time. The debate will continue with several mutings. Trump will use this in his campaign.”

****************

The more they are ‘forced’ to use the mute button on Trump the more they can accuse him of “outlandish” behavior. They will not hesitate to silence him.

The mute button will NOT be used on Biden. Not once.

Juiced to the max for sure. One of these days they might overdo it .... or it won’t work. They’re playing ‘Russian Roulette (no pun intended with the ‘Russian’). Way back when, the word was his public appearances are so scary for the ‘staff’ that some of them can’t watch, for fear FJB will run off the rails big time.

Having been around several family/friends with dementia & seeing them as they spiraled toward the ‘end’, things can change in a hurry ... like one day not eating, responding to people, etc. Propping FJB up in those circumstances, should they occur, is going to be a real ‘trick’ .... one thing is for SURE ... his condition will not be improving.

Guys they will dope Biden up, throw him. Softballs and lower expectations.

When he muddles through without full out windowing on camera they will claim he did well.

I’d the Dems had some superstar who could step in at the last second and win they would have din him from the start

“There is NO WAY the media allows Pedo Joe to lose this debate.”

The bar for Joe has always been very low. It’s merely a question of how close the meds can get him.

According to the Nasty “Mainstream Media”, Biden already “knocked it out of the park” while the far left’s fart checkers have declared everything President Trump said was a lie.

They will pump enough chemicals in his body to enhance his performance enough with Trump, but will they blow the lid off of that pumpkin head?

I’ve been around it too and Biden exhibits all the signs of it advancing. His periodic meds are all that’s keeping him going.

Its hard to understand how his family (I know, I know) allows this elder abuse to go on knowing that it will soon become impossible to excuse. And I’m putting that politely.

No.

In fact, Biden can freeze for the entire debate and still have enough ballots for the election to be declared a Biden landslide.

Bingo! They’re going to use every dirty trick in the book. That’s why I am furious that Trump agreed to all their demands. Trump could’ve flipped the tables and said I will debate him on CNN with fake Tapper as a moderator with one condition that Kennedy and the other presidential candidates are also included in the debate. Because like you liberal communist, left-wing POS have said over and over again “democracy “ is on the line! Easy Peezy …my goodness Trump has a terrible team. This would’ve given Trump the advantage and everything he wanted! Aye Trump!

Trump needs to just read off a list of Biden’s lies and make sure to bring up his failure as a father and his showering with Ashley. And ask him all the time about his made up stories. This erection isn’t about policy. They ONLY way to take out Biden is Biden takes out himself by be clowning himself so irredeemably he strokes out. Even as a corpse the democrats will cheat enough to push him across the finish line. So it is best to have the screaming blathering old pervert Exposed as best as can be had.
