WSB radio just announced Trump will not participate in the virtual debate next week. That's all I have so far.

Edited to add:

Pres Trump: "I'm not going to waste my time on a virtual debate." Fox Business interview with Maria Bartiromo

“ Dems are also saying that the 12 foot separation distance of candidates doesn’t work either.”

So why are they letting us be shoulder to shoulder at Costco and Kroger’s every day?

The moderators are biased, the debates are rigged, the coordinators are the inner circle of the America Last globalist uniparty.

**** the debates.

Do interviews with friendly people ONLY between now and the election.

Trump is the anomaly that the Deep State failed to expect.

I hope this is part of some super great strategy that I just can’t see.

The "moderator" was a former staffer of Biden's, and was photographed with Biden at a Biden hosted beach party as recently as 2016. Also pics of Biden fondling his very young daughter at that party. Add in that a "virtual debate" means Biden's ability to cheat is unrestricted. Trump is correct to refuse this one. Change the moderator and allow a staff member from each campaign onsite to monitor the opponent, then maybe...

I liked Rand Paul’s idea of a 30 minute interview of each candidate separately with the same basic questions.

Kamala is not the first woman to try to become chief executive in an unexpected way. Jim "Pa" Fergusun was a popular but allegedly corrupt governor of Texas. (My grandfather said he refused to pay after he lost at pool.) He was impeached and his wife Miriam "Ma" Ferguson ran for the office with the slogan "Two governors for the price of one." Of course after Ma won, Pa was really calling the shots. If Biden won it would be the other way around.

In 1924 everybody knew that a vote for Ma was really a vote for Pa. In 2020, I wonder how many Biden voters know what they are getting.

“By those definitions I would posit that standing up and threatening to walk out is a counter offer. Then the negotiation continues.”

Threatening to walk away and actually walking away are two entirely different things. Still, a threat to walk away would not meet the requirement of consideration (in contract law there must be consideration — i.e., something of value offered). And an agreement for value or performance is a contract. Then again, NOT actually walking away could be interpreted as “No; but what else have you got?”

It also depends on WHEN you said “No.” If the “No” was your first response to a demand or offer, then there has been no negotiation. If it is later on, after some give-and-take, then a negotiation HAD occurred but no resolution (agreement) was achieved, at which point the negotiation has terminated, until such time as one of the parties came back with another offer or demand.

Thanks. That’s very interesting. I had no idea that the tactics that I’ve used formally opened and closed the negotiation.

I’ve extended offers with a time limit. I suppose the negotiation ends at that time, correct?

“I’ve extended offers with a time limit. I suppose the negotiation ends at that time, correct?”

Yup. If you put a qualification on an offer or a demand that offer or demand automatically ceases when the qualification is reached.

Also, a counter-offer is a rejection of the previous move by the other side. Say, for instance, a party offers X to settle a case, and the other party responds with Y. X is automatically rejected.

You are an idiot and after November 4, I bet you’ll never show your face here again.

Wow. Let me ask you about this real scenario that took place over a period of months.

I put an offer on the table.

The other party put a counter offer on the table. I turned it down but said my offer stands.

After three rounds of this, I took my offer off the table and put a reduced offer on the table with a deadline (I was in the more powerful position).

They accepted it.

Was that a full negotiation? Several negotiations?

It worked, but now I’m wondering about the legal definition of the process.

Well, all they have to do is get clips of Biden saying stuff that he now says he didn’t and Biden can debate Biden. /s

That should be pretty easy to do. And I wonder why it hasn’t been done already.

Another reason Americans should want live debates is to see if a potential leader has what it takes to stand up for America while communicating in person with foreign leaders.

Didn’t know that about Iowa. Explains why I haven’t seen a Trump ad in a while.

Virtual debate, Satanic, Accuser of the Brethren because the attempt is to sow bad seeds in the mind-heart, WITHOUT Trump cutting off the deceiver IMMEDIATELY in his tracks.

Should have been that way all along.
Moderator is code for “we control”
Moderators should ONLY be timekeepers.
