Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsThe debates will be a complete and total disaster for Trump.
The debates will be about Trumps unimaginable failures. He will look like a damned fool trying to defend himself about the pandemic. Defending himself about not defending our troops.
Trump may realize this. I don't know what he will do, but he does have a history of getting out when he knows he can't win.

(115,732 posts)Trump thinks he's smarter than everybody else, but Biden is a very good debater - he just isn't loud. He ate Paul Ryan's lunch and Ryan is a whole lot smarter than Trump.

His football league was a notable exception-- it had promise, but work was involved getting it back
on trac, so he walked. And a lot of people were hurt, but he gave himself a bucket of brownie points.

(43,182 posts)Problem is, these days the spin is so thick, his supporters will insist that he wiped the floor with Biden.

(10,192 posts)The entire debate will resemble one of those batshit crazy Trump press conferences, where he calls women journalists "nasty" after they challenge him. I can see Trump storming off the stage at some point.

(10,053 posts)While the ones with a million folks on stage were not his best, one on one was a good format for him he came across as smart, sharp, and kinda witty!
SWBTATTReg
(22,133 posts)in all 3 debates. Just watch. He always manages to come up w/ some lame or idiotic excuse after something happens, in that always, he's not to blame. Instead of the saying 'the buck stops here', with trump, 'the buck never stops here'.

(42,862 posts)There will be no debates. At best there will be back-to-back "town hall" pseudo-debates... but even that's doubtful, in my opinion.

(3,266 posts)won't let him not at least TRY to show up Joe. He's a bully and he thinks he can shout and bully his way around Joe. He'll remember fondly how he stalked Hillary around the stage, and how (he thinks, and Fox reinforced) he soundly won each of the debates against her, and think "this'll be cake". He'll end up getting his ass kicked, and be ridiculed, and find an excuse to nope out of the rest of them.
