Biden challenges Trump to pair of debates — but only on his terms: ‘Make my day, pal’
NY Post ^ | 05/15/2024 | Olivia Land

President Biden said he is willing to debate former President Donald Trump twice ahead of the election — but only if Trump agrees to his strict terms.

“Donald Trump lost two debates to me in 2020, and now he wants to debate me again,” Biden said in the fiery video released Wednesday.

“Well, make my day, pal,” Biden, 81, added.

The Biden camp, however, rejected allowing the nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates to run the face-offs, despite it having done so since 1988, a letter obtained by the New York Times revealed.

Instead of the commission debates on Sept. 16, Oct. 1 and Oct. 9, Biden wants to go toe to toe with Trump on a more compressed schedule — with the first debate as early as June, campaign chair Jennifer O’Malley Dillon wrote.

Mike Wallace’s son Chris, maybe, given that Mike has been dead since 2012.

Trump should have his phone recording the entire time, for everything we won’t be allowed to see.

We should never do debates again. I think they're obsolete.

If we try to do the debates again, your opponent will attempt to "manipulate" the stage so he'll be able to win it ahead of time. So what's the point?

Trump will really debate the “moderators,” as always.

Who’s going to moderate, Jen Psaki and George Stephanopoulos? Or perhaps James Carville and Alexander Vindman?

*Topics highest polled are likely to be:
1) Economy
2) Border
3) Crime
4) Energy
5) International engagements
6) State of the Union*

Polling perhaps. Trump should inject RACE. One whole debate. Play into their hands. Do it in October. Maybe the VP debate. Kamala or Biden need to be exposed.

“Biden said in the fiery video released Wednesday.”

That was not fiery, not at all. It was whistling in the dark.

The questions will be leaked so Biden can rehearse answers.

They did it with Hillary. Remember Donna Brazile.

Trump should challenge him to debates, and then show up for those debates and debate an empty podium.

Bring in whoever he wants to run them.

IIRC Hur was making a reference to Biden’s mental capacity at trial based on not prosecuting him until the hypothetical end of his first or second term, either option guaranteeing years of delay. Pathetic reasoning but he was subtly trying to avoid a current diagnosis of Biden and assuming further mental deterioration.

Biden’s debate rules...

The moderator will ask President Trump a question, which he will have to answer immediately.

The moderator will ask President Biden a question, at which point, Biden will be led offstage for ten minutes. He will then return to stage and answer the question.

Trump should be quiet and patronizing, like walking an old lady across the street. Emphasize and enhance any confusion.

Joe finished his “kindly old man w/ faulty memory” act (to escape jail for mishandling classifieds).

Now Joenothing is into his “I’m a trusted beacon of Democrat leadership” reelection act.

Must be time for his “resurrect my dead war hero son” act, a proven vote-getter any moron in Delaware can tell ya.

Yes.

Debating Biden you just STFU and let him make an ass out of himself.

Also be careful not to mock him.

I remember the Regan/Carter, Reagan/Mondale debates. The moderators appeared professional and non-partisan. Since 2012, the moderators have been mostly left-wing hacks who were obviously unfair to whomever was the GOP candidate. And the RNC, like the typical spineless wimps that they were allowed this to happen.
