4. Trump isn't going to debate anyone.

There is no reason for Trump to debate anyone... and his handlers know that if he does go to a debate, there is a non-zero change that whatever his obvious mental condition is (drugs, disease, etc) it is likely to show up during a debate.

He will claim that debates are unfair or not worth his time or that the Democrat (whoever our nominee is) is in collusion with the un truthful media and so he can't get a fair deal.

He will go to rallies, lie about the wall, lie about the economy, lie about foreign policy... and basically try to win with just his base in the key swing states.

We are foolish to believe that he is a "normal" President and will adhere to the norms of other Presidents.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
