The Latest: Trump to face voters’ questions in NBC town hall
The Associated Press ^ | October 14, 2020

Posted on 10/14/2020 5:18:00 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

In lieu of a formal debate, President Donald Trump has agreed to answer voters’ questions during a town hall program sponsored by NBC News on Thursday night.

The event will be held outdoors at the Perez Art Museum in Miami.

A formal matchup between the Republican president and Democrat Joe Biden that was scheduled for Thursday in Miami by the nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debate was canceled. The commission shifted the format from a town hall to a virtual meeting, and Trump declined to participate.

Biden is participating in an ABC News town hall Thursday in Philadelphia.

Democrats and maybe NBC will run in phoney independents, GOP or undecided with tricked up questions. Expect a S@#t show.

First question from NBC approved guest:

“Go ahead, sir. Ask your question of the President.”

“Mr. President, why have you weaponized the coronavirus? And why do you continue to blame our world neighbor China for your failure to handle this deadly disease?”

“agreed to answer voters’ questions”

Voters who contribute or actively participate in the Biden campaign, but who consider themselves “undecided”. It could happen.

Ridiculous.

During Biden’s town hall, people basically faked being undecided and only asked questions about his favorite colors and fellated him.

Obv had the questions beforehand.

If Trump is ahead, why bother? Seems like too much of a risk. Now, if he’s behind in their internal polls, he may not have much choice.

Trump takes the fight to the enemy.

He’s not big on carrying coals to Newcastle.

EXACTLY what I posted here last week about what Trump should do with no debate. Still go to Miami, where the debate was supposed to happen and do a competing Town Hall. BOOM.

“Mister President, do you think picking on a poor, feeble 77 year old man is really becoming of your office?”

“Mister President, name three things you deeply respect about Vice President Biden.”

“Mister President, will you commit right here and now that, whatever the results of the election, you will resign the next day?”

“Mister President, considering how many people of color have been killed by the virus you allowed into our country, don’t you think it’s racist that you didn’t die of it?”

Trump is after boosting vote totals even in states like California. He meets the enemy on their own turf not does not cower in a basement. He has no fear.

I don’t want our President outdoors in Miami. Period. Especially an announced event.
