If Mango Musselini gets obnoxious and breaks the rules again tonight ..

[IggleDuer]

... should Joe simply walk out? Mango Musselini will just blather on and the viewers will simply turn it off. Joe could go over to the cable networks for interviews on a split screen (sound off for Dementia Don).

1. They will cut Donny Dumbfuck's mic.

He may drone on but no one but Joe will hear it.

3. That's the person Trump wants to hear it.

8. it will be ineffective

Trump will be shouting. He will be heard.

This is going to be a total shitshow.

Also: the 'pundits' will find a way to both-sides it.

2. Of course he's going to break the rules. Just cause his mic is muted doesn't mean he'll shut up.

4. The Biden campaign announced yesterday their plan for the debate is to let trump be trump

And for Joe to keep his cool. If he behaves even half as badly as he did in the first, Joe should get a 2-3 pt polling bounce

5. "IF" Mango Musselini gets obnoxious????

[dware]

6. If he gets obnoxious and breaks the rules again tonight?

He was born obnoxious and breaking the rules, why would tonight be any different?

[Voltaire2]

7. if?

[albacore]

9. Joe should just let him talk. Pointedly.

"Go ahead.... your people are listening. But the rest of America is listening, too. They know what you are."

trump hates to be ignored or devalued. Biden't goal should be to get trump to melt down completely.

10. No. Walking out would make him look petulant.
