"SNIP..............

“Donald Trump on Thursday scoffed at the notion that he would debate long shot presidential hopeful Robert F. Kennedy Jr. even as the former president’s allies show more concern about Kennedy’s campaign,” Business Insider reports.

Said Trump: “He’s, uh, not a serious candidate. They say he hurts Biden. I don’t know who he hurts, he might hurt me. I don’t know. He has very low numbers, certainly not numbers that he can debate with. He’s got to get his numbers a lot higher before he’s credible.”

But I think Kennedy would make Trump look bad and Biden look good because Biden would be the moderate/reasonable option.

Never has, never will.

And that includes the weird creepy stalking of Hillary Clinton.

The media would love such a match!

Anyone taking book on how long it would take to degenerate into an insulting match and fisticuffs?
