Covid-19 will be the excuse...has to be...
“If the Democrats want a healthy Joe Biden in 2021 and beyond,”
He’s not healthy now and this needs to be emphasized by Republicans. The democrats are perpetrating a fraud on the American people by trying to say that there’s nothing wrong with Biden.
It’s a pipe dream. He is going to debate Trump at least once. If he wins the first debate he may not do the others.
Well, of course, if candidate Biden is not up to a debate, and the effort might be actually dangerous to his health, by all means we should cancel.
When he wins, all the pressure will be off, and he can relax, because we know being POTUS is a cake walk...
I fully expect Joe to drop any debates and the lame stream media will with a straight face deliver whatever spin Biden’s handlers supply them. However, debates have been a fixture of the Presidential race since Kennedy and Nixon and to suddenly drop them for some flimsy reason likely related to COVID will not play well. The COVID excuse will likely raise questions about a Biden’s overall health. The excuse of Trump is mean, a liar etc. will be seen as a cop out. Biden is between a rock and a hard spot. The debates will be a disaster and not doing them could be equally as bad.
Bottom line: If Biden debates, it will be fixed in some way. To quote Rush: “Do. Not. Doubt. Me.” It’ll be difficult, though. An earpiece will be too obvious considering the time lags that would be required. Having the debate “virtually” with each man in a different location might be set up so he can read a teleprompter in secret. But he’s not capable of reading a teleprompter, as we’ve seen in the past. It’ll be a problem for them.
Maybe they’ll fake his death like at the end of “Dave”, throw him into an ambulance, and later he’ll be shuffling over a faraway hill.
Because he can barely stand up and talk?
Let’s see how creative the dems can be in finding an excuse to not have a debate. It will be a lie whatever it is.
What happens if Biden has a serious medical problem and drops out of race before Nov3?
Does Harris move up or something else?
Dangerous territory here. I saw the Biden/Sanders debate, and was amazed at how alert Biden seemed to be. They had him pumped up on something. They will do the same thing with Trump. We’ve lowered the bar so far, that all Biden has to do is show up, seemingly coherent, and he “wins”.
Antifa and BLM will burn down the host city the night before to cancel the debate due to safety concerns

If Joe Biden withdraws from the debates, President Trump should offer to debate Kamala Harris. After all, we’ve been told that she has the qualifications to take over as President immediately if the need should arise. Give her a chance to prove it.
Maybe Trump should see if Nasty Nancy wants to debate instead.
‘I have to debate somebody from the Aunt Teefah BLM terrorist party.’
It’s the only fair thing for the American people.
Haha! Too funny! They just need him to get past election day. After that, he could get hit by a bus, they don't care...
I watched Biden debate Bernie earlier on in the year. As much as I loathe the positions, Biden did okay in that debate. He also did okay in the debate with Bloomberg and company, though I found him yelling a lot.
All in all, people are making a mistake thinking Biden will not debate or be horrible in the debate. And don’t forget the media and moderators will help Biden out.
I firmly believe Trump needs to be fully prepared and ready. As long as Trump is properly prepared he will have a winning message that many can support.
Their best and perhaps only chance is to see that the debates aren't quite live, whether through the magic of virtualization or some contrived technical glitch, because Trump's team isn't going to buy into a taped and edited debate. That also is going to have to be rehearsed, and given the pathetic results of the Dem "convention" that one is unlikely to be successful. Do they realize how bad that was? I get the sense they do not. And so the easiest thing to do may well be to throw Joe to the wolf and clean up the mess later. If they do opt for finding a pretext to avoid the debates altogether we'll be seeing a media workup sometime in the next couple of weeks. Just my $0.02.
I guarantee that fox, and chris wallace, have already provided questions to the biden team.
There is no need for this with the other networks. For the biden camp are providing questions to the networks.
American Spectator is still the finest publication on the right.
