Trump caved on everything; there was no negotiation of any type on the debates. So we have two CNN reps as moderators who hate the MAGA movement. No audience, per Senile’s request. What exactly did Trump get back for agreeing to it? Not a damned thing, just when he let Chris Wallace roll over him in the second debate in 2020.
Trump’s weakness: He erroneously feels can overcome any concerted effort designed to make him fail. Some might call this “hubris”.
