    So far, Biden is laying low, avoiding such things- letting the riots, thugs and BLM speak for him. If possible, the DNC will not allow him to actually debate- they are still smart enough to know how disastrous that would be.

    If there was no corona virus, you would have a chance. It would have been a squeaker.

    But we do have the disease, and... we have Trump's abysmal failure with it.

    Trump once said "What do you have to lose?"

    Now we know. You can see it in the steady drip, drip, drip in the polls. A lot of voters are very superficial, but not when they are afraid.

    "Former Vice President Joe Biden is leading President Donald Trump among registered voters by his widest margin in 2020, according to a new national poll.The Quinnipiac University poll, conducted July 9 to 13 and released Wednesday, showed Biden leading Trump 52%-37%, a 15-point margin..."

    Please explain to me what good that 1 move he made 6 months ago helped this situation. He did nothing for 6 months after that one move that still allowed over 40,000 people into our country. Did him golfing, having rallies and tweeting that Covid is a liberal hoax save lives?

    Trump seems to be cool under pressure. Biden seems to freeze under pressure.

    We don't have the faintest idea how this CoronaVirus will affect the debate. They could be held lap top to lap top, on stage without an audience, with both candidates in a plastic booth and perhaps many more precautions taken due to health worries. Maybe they won't even be held. We don't know how this Virus is going to affect the November voting either. All by mail? Some by mail and others in person? Will the election go on as scheduled or maybe be postponed for a month?

    Even if everything goes on as normal, I fail to see how Trump calling Biden all sorts of names is going to close any poll numbers. I don't see Trump trying to bully Biden around will help him. It could just reinforce the pre-conceived notions that Trumps uncouth and obnoxious persona along with his very unpresidential behavior is someone we don't want to return to the presidency. But who knows until it happens? If it happens?

    Expect his bullying tactics to backfire this time.

    That would be stupid and they know it, instead they will play up how Trump unfairly beat up Biden and hope that nobody noticed Joe's bumbling, stumbling and stuttering performance.

    it's been 3 years and Trump still doesn't have any policies, the only thing he has done is tax cuts for the mega corps and divide the nation

    Good post!

    There's more, but the whole shebang would be book length.

    This is delusional. The President has been incoherent since he stepped foot on the national stage and is getting worse as each day passes. That’s not going to change. He is who he is.

    I’m sorry you were fooled.

    Just A Man said: "Trump is a good debater as proven in 2016 when he swept the field."

    Polls conducted by various organizations, including Gallup, Fox, NBC, CNN, Politico, YouGov and Public Policy Polling, showed otherwise for all three 2016 debates.

    Dude Biden lost badly to everyone he's ever debated including Sarah Palin. At this stage of the game Biden would have trouble spelling debate let alone winning one.

    Fox News Channel held a poll regarding the performance of each candidate, 51% favored Biden 39% favored Palin.
