Trump Spurns Traditional Debate Prep
September 9, 2020 at 10:00 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

“President Trump has not held a single mock debate session, and has no plans to stage a formal practice round, as he readies for his first faceoff with Joe Biden in less than three weeks,” NBC News reports.

“The president has dismissed the typical debate preparations he participated in four years ago, joking to aides and allies that he’s been preparing for debates since he was born. His ability to fire back at an opponent in real time, he’s argued, ‘isn’t something you have to practice.'”

1. Dump is too lazy to do anything that even remotely resembles work.

[TreasonousBastard]

2. A presidential debate is about "firing back"?

[andym]

3. Trump is just going to bluster, lie, insult, bully, fabricate facts etc

He already knows how to do that. No need to practice. I hope Biden ridicules him into a fit during the debate.

[Faux pas]

4. I

wonder if the hump will stalk Joe around the stage like he did Hillary? Snort, good luck with that!

5. Get him to defend bleach injection

6. Wing it, dude!

7. he doesn't care, the debates don't matter to him

Trump's not planning to win a fair election, so why interrupt the golfing for something useless?

8. His cult doesn't care if he's prepared. He could recite Goldilocks and they would swoon.

I think that those who still support him won't be moved by anything he says or does. Even if they know he's wrong, they won't admit to making a mistake by sticking with him.

9. So his debate strategy is to yell, call names, and throw tantrums? Please proceed, Mr. President.

[Mc Mike]

10. No puppet, no puppet. YOU'RE the puppet.

Can't prep to achieve those kinds of rhetorical genius flashes.

11. "Mr. Trump, what do you think explains China's moves in the South China Sea?"

"Nobody's been tougher on China. Nailed it!"

12. Good

He got crushed in all 3 debates with Hillary with the same approach. Looks like he’s well on his way to blowing his last best chance to “turn it around.”
