    The CPD announced this morning that a "virtual" debate would be preferred for the next squaring off between Trump and Biden, driven by Covid concerns. Trump quickly denounced the idea and said he wouldn't participate. There is a history of this kind of debate - Nixon and Kennedy debated from separate locations in 1960, and Reagan and RFK had a remote/virtual debate in 1967.







     
    Trump is clearly still suffering the effects of Covid as you can hear on his Hannity interview tonight. For him to argue he should be there in person is nonsensical but, obviously, not surprising.
     
    Looks like it's officially off now. Biden will hold a town hall on ABC on the night it was scheduled for.

    Commission cancels second debate between Trump and Biden | CNN Politics

    The Commission on Presidential Debates on Friday canceled the second debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden after the President declined to do a virtual debate despite concerns over his Covid-19 diagnosis, organizers said.

    I do think I read that Biden will be doing a televised town hall that night, but I imagine the Debate folks don’t want to do anything that’s unilateral like that.

    I wish they would not have canceled it and just held the debate with only Biden and an open invitation to Trump to join in anytime.

    I dont know, i kinda think it’s better to just let that last debate debacle rest in the minds of voters and call it a day.. however i guess it looks like Joe will be doing a town hall anyway.

    Biden doing a solo town hall meeting instead will be essentially be the same thing. I'm taking straight up bets on whether or not Trump tries to force his way in so he can interrupt Biden. Any takers?

    Scully apparently thought he was sending a DM. He deleted the embarrassing tweet. He's going with the unbelievable claim that his account was hacked.


    This isn’t the first time he claimed his account was hacked.


    It's a shame that he won't be able to moderate a debate. Joe Rogan looks pretty good compared to anyone the corrupt Commission on Presidential Debates puts out there.

    Why do you call them corrupt ? Do you have anything which support that notion or ?
