    Any idea why foreign policy is not a debate topic? The left, including many on this board, have vehemently disagreed with Trump's foreign policy while Biden bragged about his, so why would this important topic not be included in a presidential debate when the left leaning everything can throw Biden a softball during the debate? My guess is they don't want anyone mentioning China, Ukraine or China. Especially China. Or maybe they don't want Trump's Nobel nominations mentioned. Did I mention China?

    One thing is for sure, if it will benefit Trump, they won't do it.

    Trump afain trying to change the rules after the fact. He already tried to give Joe Covid last time. Biden should just cancel since Covid45 can’t play by the rules

    I suspect both candidates will just ignore the moderator's questions and talk about whatever topic they want anyways. I expect Hunter's laptop and business dealings will be brought up.

    That letter is a hoot... Bill Stepien now joins Brad "Beer Me" Parscale as legally insane...

    The only way you could setup a debate stage where Trump has a snowballs chance in hell to win is to have the candidates fight for the last piece of chicken in the bucket...

    Really, they should just scrap BOTH the scheduled topics and Trumps suggested topics and talk about what Trump knows better than anybody on earth.

    Toilet flushing

    Even I'd watch that for 90 minutes...

    Biden should demand they ask about who trump owes a billion dollars to. If they refuse he should use that, and trumps attempt to murder him last time as reason to cancel.

    No doubt it will.

    The only question is whether or not Biden's shills in the LW media will cover it before then.

    Do you three realize that foreign policy debates have been a part of every Presidential debate for the last several Presidential elections? Do you three realize that this third debate was originally set to be about foreign policy before the first debate even happened? Why don't you three want a foreign policy debate to happen as was originally intended for this last debate?

    Which is a tacit admission of guilt.

    I'll assume it's because the bi-partisan debate commission figured there were more important things to not answer...

    Sounds like a plan, Trump will talk about his amazing economy, the destruction of ISIS, 3 historic peace agreements, improved trade treaties.... Biden should indeed stick to the topics and speak about the cost of "his version" of the Green new scam and of how all white Americans are systemic racists.

    Trump chickened out from the second debate, so he has no room to make demands.

    I don't care what the topics are. It's Trump's demand that I find laughable.

    Did you read that letter from his campaign "chief"? It's a classic... I'm sure the commission broke up when he led with Trump winning the first debate...

    What exactly is bi-partisan about this commission? Just because they have an R or D in front of their name doesn't mean they're bi-partisan.

    Bold: And yeah, I'm sure that they don't want answers to certain questions when it comes to Biden. They'd probably make him look bad.

    The Trump team is actually asking them NOT TO CHANGE the debate topic. Only people who read past the headline understand this i guess.
