Senate Republican Whip John Thune (N.D.), the No. 2-ranking Senate GOP leader, says former President Trump should agree to a second debate with Vice President Harris.
Thune, a leading candidate to succeed Sen. Mitch McConnell (Ky.) as the next Senate Republican leader, said Trump needs to do a better job of highlighting the substantive differences between the two presidential candidates, something Thune believes was glossed over in the first debate.
Asked whether Trump should agree to a second debate, Thune told the Associated Press in an interview: “Yes, I do. I think it would be helpful.”
“I don’t think they got enough into the substance of their differences and I think elections are always about differences. The contrast this time around couldn’t be more clear in terms of their records, their positions, their vision for the future,” Thune said.
“Litigating that in a debate setting would be really important and I don’t think they got enough of that done [Tuesday] night,” he said.

STFU Thune.

They should just wear togagas. They act like old Roman too-powerful idiots who stand around the forum plotting
Yeah, only if it is moderated by Tucker Carlson...
Don’t listen to the DS troglodytes.
Dems want a 2nd try because the 1st failed miserably. Trump has to stop this abccbsnbc moderator garbage. Mods should be one flaming lib and one true conservative. The End
Thune is a UniParty Assistant Democrat.
.....and testifying.
That confirms it.
Trump made the right decision.
Let Thune do some press conferences on Trump’s behalf and articulate what he wants said.
I think we've seen plenty of evidence that the Democrats and media are incapable of that.
“ one true conservative”
Name one besides Steve Bannon.
Only if it’s done at a neutral site with a neutral moderator. No showboating by the moderator, no virtue signaling, no funny stuff. No alphabet networks.
He should tell her...absolutely...but with Fox...see what she says...trap her...
Watch and learn grasshopper (not you personally)
Thune; another RINO club member of the McCain/Romney ilk. Go away.
I thought Thune had departed from DC long ago.
Choose Fox and she will back out
