Both candidates agreed to debate. Joe is willing to live by the agreement and participate

in the October 15th virtual confrontation. Trump refuses.

The debate commission and the networks should proceed with providing the 90 minutes of air time originally planned to whoever makes themself available as agreed. If Trump persists in his cowardly refusal, he should be represented by an empty chair and Joe should be asked the questions the moderator planned to ask both candidates.

Go ahead, Donnie. Stomp away and pout. That'll show 'em!

LOL!!!

BTW fox News is out of their freaking minds this morning.

"how can the commission do this without consulting the president?"

Basically their argument now is Trump won't have the ability to interrupt.
