Trump BEGS for a Debate With Biden After Skipping Every Primary Debate

[Tom of Temecula]

Former President Donald Trump challenged President Joe Biden to a debate on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday. “It is important, for the Good of our Country, that Joe Biden and I Debate Issues that are so vital to America, and the American People,” wrote Trump, who refused to debate any of his 2024 GOP primary rivals.

“Therefore, I am calling for Debates, ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE! The Debates can be run by the Corrupt DNC, or their Subsidiary, the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD). I look forward to receiving a response. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” Trump concluded.

Biden-Harris 2024 Communications Director Michael Tyler responded to Trump’s post, saying, “I know Donald Trump’s thirsty for attention and struggling to expand his appeal beyond the MAGA base — and that’s a conversation we’ll have at the appropriate time in this cycle. But if he’s so desperate to see President Biden in prime time, he doesn’t have to wait! He can join the tens of millions of Americans who will tune in to watch the State of the Union tomorrow night. He might even learn a thing or two about bringing people together and actually delivering for the American people.”

The Republican National Committee pulled out of the Commission on Presidential Debates in April of 2022. “The Commission on Presidential Debates is biased and has refused to enact simple and commonsense reforms to help ensure fair debates including hosting debates before voting begins and selecting moderators who have never worked for candidates on the debate stage,” RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel said in a statement at the time.

1. That's because he intends to talk over and bully Joe the whole time, call him names,

and try to break his composure, piss him off, and get him to stutter.

If I were Joe, I'd say "Ain't going to happen". Then I would resurrect FDR's idea of a "fireside chat" directly to the people combined with "State of our Nation" town halls at various locations (well screened, of course).

2. How about fuck you, Motherfucker?

Will you take fuck you?

[Walleye]

3. Yeah, OK "will you shut up man"

[TSExile]

4. Will they cut his mic?

Yeah, didn't think so.

[Omnipresent]

27. They need conditions like a soundproof booth and mic that can be cut off...

All because they have nothing but spineless moderators that can’t control tfg.

[Kid Berwyn]

5. Last time, Trump tried to kill Joe Biden.

Trump TSF didn’t wear a mask while sick with COVID and didn’t tell anybody he tested positive.

[tanyev]

9. And most of his people in the audience took off the masks they were supposed to wear.

[Kid Berwyn]

11. They are evil.

They laugh when Trump “jokes” about the attack on Paul Pelosi.

People who find joy in harming others are sick fucks.

[niyad]

30. Thank you. Came in to post that.

[Kid Berwyn]

42. "He shows up with the biggest mask I've ever seen."

Because it smeared his vanity bronzer, untold thousands died because of Trump's example.

PS: You are most welcome, niyad!

[imanamerican63]

6. Joe only needs 3 or 4 debates to get under your slimy skin, Donald!

Plus, Joe will be the better debater, cuz all you do is lie!!

[lark]

7. This is just a lying tactic to try and make him look strong.

He doesn't want to debate Biden, he knows he will have to take record levels of Adderall and could explode on stage. Although, he's so demented, he thinks this makes him look strong instead of sick and stupid.

I don't think that Biden should get on stage with him, it would be sooo hideous having tsf screaming at Biden non-stop and not letting Biden get a word in edgewise. Biden should just hold town halls and talk to people directly. But I do understand if he agrees to the debate, I just know it will be a total shit show.

[malaise]

8. Eff him

That is all

[Jim__]

10. That may be a ploy that Trump can fall back on when he refuses to debate Biden.

Trump will claim he wanted to debate, but Biden insists on rules that will muzzle Trump.

[underpants]

12. I'm expecting the talking point to be that Biden is avoiding debates

I’m kind of surprised all his loony “influencers” on Twitter haven’t started on it today. We’ll see.

[bluestarone]

13. TFG refused all debates with HIS competitors. All i gotta say is

Payback is a bitch!!

[ITAL]

14. His campaign has little money

Trump probably figures this would be a good audience that he doesn't have to pay for himself (like commercials, etc).

[Voltaire2]

15. " on his Truth Social platform" - uh nope.

[Beachnutt]

16. If and when a debate happens

Joe should challenge the conman to an on the spot drug test.
Right there on stage a hair follicle test.
Also challenge him on other issues on the spot.

[Captain Zero]

38. Would you even be able to get a real hair off trumps head though?

Have the Indiana AG snip a few of Trumps pubes for the test.

Todd Rokita likes looking into everyones' pants.

[Johonny]

17. And he demanded to testify at his trials

But didn't and has complained ever since that he wasn't allowed to. He won't debate Joe. He's all talk, then chicken walk.

[LuckyCharms]

18. I wonder if there's a difference between ANYWHERE and ANYPLACE.

What a bizarre asshole he is.

[dmr]

33. Wondering that myself.

I just got a chuckle out of it.

[Captain Zero]

39. Biden should tell him he hasn't debated Niki Haley yet

She's only 'suspended' her campaign, so she could come and debate him in Indiana or any of the late primary states.

[murielm99]

19. Incumbents don't have to debate.

FU, trump.

[Talitha]

20. He just wants another chance to wave his little hands in the air and bloviate.

[Hotler]

21. Don't do it Joe. Think about how they are fucking your son and don't do it.

I think it would be great if you told the orange one to pound salt. It would be good for our morale.

[All Mixed Up]

22. There are three debates scheduled for later this year.

They're the traditional presidential debates we've seen every election since 1976.

Biden should just point to those debates and say, "see you then."

Trump won't accept those debates because the Republicans have already indicated they won't support the Commission. But that has been the universal agreed upon format for years now.

[dmr]

34. Well, he did say "anywhere", "anyplace"

But, to be polite, he's goofy. Those words are most likely, meaningless.

[peggysue2]

23. Think Tyler nailed it

The comments from Trump have more to do with the State of the Union address. Trump and MAGA fear the power of the Bully Pulpit, so much so that the MAGA Congress wanted Johnson to 'disinvite' Biden. Johnson himself has pleaded with his motley crew to be 'civil' during the address, to avoid the ridiculous shout-outs and adolescent behaviors (my words not Johnson's) that were on full display last year.

Trump cannot stand even a moment where the spotlight is not on him.

Because he's a narcissistic sociopath.

As for Agent Orange calling for debates? I'll believe it when I see it.

[EndlessWire]

24. I think it's for delay.

He'll tell some Judge that he needs to prepare for the important election debate.

Do ya'll realize that tRump might, could be, be in jail in as little as 8 weeks? Alvin might nail him to the wall, the jury might convict him, and the Judge could sentence him to jail. Maybe Joe should respond and say, "No, I don't want to debate someone who might be in jail."

[MorbidButterflyTat]

25. He sure thinks he's somebody

This is bullshit. He won't debate, but he'll claim, "I said I wanted to debate! They won't let me! Boo hoo!"

Can't this scourge be done already? Isn't everyone everywhere fucking goddamn sick and fucking tired of this scummy asshole?

FUCK OFF, ASSHOLE!

[leftyladyfrommo]

26. That would be the debate from hell. I

couldn't stand to watch that.

[bucolic_frolic]

28. Trump stalked Hillary around the stage now with dementia he'll be a wanderer. /nt

[senseandsensibility]

29. Let him beg like a dog

[sprinkleeninow]

31. Been watching my mouth extensively lately, but DO NOT DEBATE HIM, Pres. Biden.

Please! DO NOT!
You are the incumbent.

Tell *him* 2 words:
"Stuff" "Diagonally"

[SarahD]

32. Do it, Joe. Just ridicule his ass.

C'mon man! Are you serious? You sound like a parrot on LSD."

[senseandsensibility]

36. I'd pay to see that

Ridicule is our side's secret weapon against this freak, and it is so rarely used.

[gordianot]

35. I would insist the Secret Service play close attention to his Entourage.

Being in the same room with that lunatic is a risk. There is nothing I would put past wannabe insurrectionist and his enablers.

[ProfessorGAC]

37. From A Guy We Know Lies About Everything

He even lies about stuff already proven to be a lie.
No reason to believe him about this.

[Vinca]

40. Good. I want to know more about Mr. Argentina.

[WarGamer]

41. And Trump will request RFK Jr also be in the debate.

[usedtobedemgurl]

43. They could have a debate any time, anywhere?

Maybe a debate at Hillary’s, E Jean Carrol’s or Stormy’s house? And wherever it is held, those three can be the moderators. Fani could even be a surprise guest moderator. I would tune in for that.

[Tree Lady]

45. I think most of America

would tune in for that!

[PatSeg]

44. I tried to respond to this earlier, but I couldn't stop laughing

He is so full of crap!
