“Guys like DeSantis and Youngkin will know how to take him on a debate stage. They won’t be stumbling and babbling like Trump’s opponents in 2016. They’ll be punching back and some of those punches will be below the belt but they’re going to hurt nonetheless.”
What makes you think Trump is going to show up to some ‘staged’ debate with two republican pygmies?
Let them debate each other would be my answer.
Besides, debates seem nonsensical after the Fetterman election.
What's he going to do? Hide in his basement?
Hell no! Trump will do anything to get on stage and in front of TV cameras.
