1. I don't care.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. Maybe. It would be unusual for him to turn down a major TV appearance,

and he really does think he's smarter than everybody else, so he undoubtedly thinks he could take Biden in a debate (ha!). On the other hand, he might decide that the debate moderators are "unfair" and demand that they be replaced with the likes of Hannity or Pirro, or else he won't do it.

[MoonRiver]

4. I think it will also depend on where he is in the polls.

My guess is that he'll be in the toilet.

[leftieNanner]

14. Which is where he belongs.

[11 Bravo]

23. My sweet rescue lab sometimes drinks from the toilet.

Can we put that flabby fuck all the way into the sewer ... like ... NOW?

[leftieNanner]

24. My old GSD (lost him last fall)

used to do that.

Ordering: 1 ticket to the sewer - one way!

[rurallib]

3. Snow balls chance in hell, I would say, but I expect old Spanky

will put some criteria out there that Biden could in no way agree to. Such as all debates on One America Network.

BTW - does the "maybe/depends" choice mean Spanky might do it if he can wear Depends for the debate? (I couldn't pass up that chance at a cheap laugh)

[MoonRiver]

6. Lol, that entered my mind too!

[SeattleVet]

28. Mine, too. GMTA!!

[Bettie]

5. The only way he'd do it is

if he could make some kind of spectacle of it AND avoid actually debating anything.

[Jeebo]

7. I've been thinking for months that there won't be any debates.

Now I'm even more sure about that.

-- Ron

[DFW]

8. Of course he will. But why give him the forum?

The number of people interested in hearing what he has to say is decreasing by the hour. Why let him have a chance at getting anyone interested again?

I want to hear (I know, the chances are slim and none, ratings being ratings), "we have decided not to hold a presidential debate this year because the likelihood of getting facts from Donald Trump to support his arguments is negligible. If anyone is finding it difficult to make a choice at this point, no debate will make things any clearer for them."

[maxsolomon]

9. There is an opportunity to intimidate Biden on TV, so yes.

But if he can't do it at the 1st one he'll bail on the next 2.

[demmiblue]

10. I don't want to see a debate. I'll leave it at that. n/t

[SoonerPride]

11. IF he debates Biden, no roaming the stage and lurking menacingly behind him.

Ground rules should be stand at your podium the entire time. Period.

That stalking shit made me throw things at my TV.

[leftieNanner]

15. He would only stalk a woman. nt

[SoonerPride]

16. No, he's a bully and would try to do that same shit to Biden.

Biden would be much more likely to turn around and tell him back the fuck up, though.

[Shermann]

12. We'll need a definition of "debate"

He won't choose the bunker over any scheduled high-profile debate appearances, but he won't ever debate anything in good faith.

[roamer65]

13. Better question is would we watch them?

My answer is FUCK NO.

As soon I get my mail in ballot, it will be straight ticket Dem.

[TheFourthMind]

17. Yes. Because he's so stupid that he makes everyone within 10ft of him look stupid too. n/t

[lpbk2713]

18. Damn I'd hate to see Trump do all that lying and whining and carrying on.

Trump would be entering a battle of wits while half armed.

[BootinUp]

19. When you're in a hole you may not have a choice. Nt

[brewens]

20. I'm thinking Trump makes completly ridiculous demands, then accuses Joe of refusing

to debate.

[Mister Ed]

26. Like maybe demanding thet the venue be "Twitter". n/t

[TeamPooka]

21. If there are TV cameras on Trump will be there.

[Mr. Ected]

22. Does it matter?

I remember Biden absolutely crushing Sarah Palin in the 2008 VP debates, only to hear from the media how well she had fared.

If Trump would debate and was judged on the merits of his performance...he would be ridiculed.

But this is the American press we're talking about. Trump could pee in a cup and they'd declare it to be superior to Joe Biden (It's new, it's bubbly, it's not 90 years old like the Democrat candidate, they would say)

At least that's the impression they've left with me for 20+ years.

[hunter]

25. With any luck "Chumpy" will be living next door to Edward Snowden...

... in the "economy suite" which used to be a janitorial closet. From there he will continue tweeting.

[Mike 03]

27. I almost voted no, but his ego will convince him to do it.

His attitude is always that the next thing he will do will fix everything, and that he can win everyone over with a great debate performance (that will not materialize). Second thought: If he is absolutely being destroyed in the polls, he might not but his justification for avoiding the debate will be interesting to hear.

[Buckeyeblue]

29. I don't see it.

Biden might tell Trump to go fuck himself. Trump couldn't risk that.

[captain queeg]

30. If he does joe ought to make him stand back to back for measurement

Joe is 6 ft but I think they’d be the same height even with trumps elevator shoes. Also as soon as trump makes comments about joes age, challenge him to push ups and have an IQ test standing by

[trueblue2007]

31. Donald RUMP is afraid of Joe!!!

[Blue_true]

32. It doesn't matter. If he refuses to debate, Joe can have a Tien Hall on the scheduled debate

day and time. Anything that Joe says at this time is newsworthy.

[Jose Garcia]

33. And miss an opportunity to be on prime time TV?

[tavernier]

34. Oh sure!

There is no way that he thinks that anybody in this world is a better speaker than he is.

[GeorgeGist]

35. I chose 'Other' ...

as in HELL NO.
