    "Meanwhile, ol' Joe would just sit in his rocking chair in one corner of the Oval Office... and drool on himself." Honestly, even that would be far preferable at this point.

    Completely implied... But I phrased the reporters question wrong anyway.. Joe wasn't asked if he would take a test. He was asked if he had taken a test.

    Either way... just answer No and leave the faux anger to the clown man...

    It would be preferable, but I saw Joe biking last week... I don't think he's ready for the rocking chair yet..

    I just got off the course and I cannot see where Joe has told Dumpty to stuff it like Hillary did... but I'm sure he will...

    Either that or trade a Biden drug test for a Trump tax test...

    Somebody shoulda thought of that before they agreed on the dates months ago...

    If there are actually any voters in this country who aren't locked into their vote, they are certainly free to wait for the Rock Em Sock Em Robots - Grandpa Edition if they want.

    Problem solved.

    The commision picked the dates ans they knew when voting would start and even now refuse to add one. Why? The tradition has always been we all vote at tne same time with the same information. To actually start voting before even one debate is absurd and IMHO designed to protect Biden.

    Tax returns for the past 10 years or no debate. In addition, the NY prosecutor will have Dirty Donnie's returns soon enough.

    Well, yeah, there is no more merit to the attacks on Joe's health or mental fitness than there was to the attacks on Hillary's health and fitness. I figured it didn't even warrant addressing.

    Good point. I'd like to hear Trump's current excuse for refusing to release them. I don't imagine he would try the "IRS audit" lie again, so I'm very curious.

    That BS... there's always been early voting, in most states...

    3 is plenty of debate.... It's not an NHL playoff round...

    I'd have no problem with following a similar schedule to 2016, but each of the 2020 debates is about 1 week later than 2016. Not enough to make any major difference

    Joe is ready to Goe....

    Why not? His base fully believes 5 year IRS audits are the norm for Glorious Leader...

    Same lie always works on those willing to be lied to...

    I would counter with drug test for tax returns. See if Trump will literally put his money where his mouth is. And an actual weigh on would be nice too, just so we can see how much he drags around the golf course on our dime.

    Biden just said on CNN that he will debate under any format approved by the Debate Commission and said that he is planning on 3 debates.

    Seems kinda dumb, but no more so than the past suggestions by folks on twitter, MSM and even here at PF that Trump must be a junkee because of some sniffles in past press conferences.

    'The people deserve to know!'

    .....:rolleyes:

    Sounds like a good idea, as long as Trump does it, too. The terms should be that they both submit to the same drug screening, administered by the same neutral doctor (no Dr. Ronny on this one, sorry), and the two candidates see the results when we do: after they're released directly to the public with zero redactions. Frankly, I'd be fine with this being a requirement of everyone who wants to serve in any high level federal position.

    I would love to see Trump's level of Adderall, Provigil, and Central Nervous system stimulants.

    Trump is probably too smart to test positive for cocaine, so he will have to go cold turkey (off of the nose candy) for a few weeks.
    (More for Kimmy and Don Jr.).

    This really is just a game being played which is why I can't stand politics in the US. This is nothing more than a way for the Trump campaign to imply that Biden is on drugs if we refuses to debate. There will be no actual evidence to support that claim, it will simply be "Well he refused to debate and we asked him to exchange drug tests therefore he must be concluded that he is on drugs which is why he won't agree to our request to debate".

    I miss the days of civility and maturity in our government. I'm growing tired of this nonsense.

    The American people have a right to see an actual debate between our two Presidential candidates. There is no reason why that should even be in question and no reason why all of this nonsense is going on in order to make it happen.

    Pelosi's statement of "I wouldn't legitimize a conversation with him, nor a debate in terms of the presidency of the United States" is ridiculous. The debate isn't for them it's for the American people.

    All of these people need to grow up, seriously. My middle school class was more mature than any of these fools.

    I doubt it's just to find illegal drugs. Could be wrong, but these came to mind...

    1. POTUS may be interested in Joe's DNA to see if he has any markers and/or family history of conditions that would impede his ability to lead the country physically or mentally.

    2. He is annoyed that people speculated about Kimberly's and Jr's illegal drug use based on their RNC behavior earlier this week.

    3. He wants to throw a curve ball to see how Biden responds (or doesn't - which would look bad).

    What does that say about someone who refuses to release taxes?

    When has voting ever begun especially on a huge scale before the first debate by the nominees?

    Why are we waiting at all to start them other than to protect Biden, heck Pelosi is calling for NO debates now.

    Ok. So we can't make any declarative statements about a candidate based on his not providing information. Gotcha. As long as you hold a consistent position for both teams.
