Harris Trolls Trump: I’ll Go to Debate Even If You Don’t

Old Sleep Don is in a lose-lose situation here. If Dementia Don changes his mind and shows up, then the smart black woman will chew him up and spit him out because he's no match for her, not even close. If Drowsy Don doesn't show up, Harris can emphasize in every answer what a yellow-bellied chicken he is. Harris has outclassed him. He should give up and drop out, but his narcissistic weaknesses and crazy weirdness will force him to plow deeper into lame loser territory. Everyone get out and vote BLUE!

Calling him a yellow-bellied chicken is disrespectful to chickens. He's a spineless draft-dodging coward.
- Hey, that’s disrespectful to draft dodgers and cowards.
- He's a spineless
  Oh, so it's cool to shit on invertebrates now then huh
- the cowardly general bone spurs
- hEyYy, i'm a coward. rUuUuDe!?
My money's on him using the phrase "nasty woman"
The real mystery is whether or not a candidate is gonna call another candidate a "bitch" during a live debate
- Hopefully it’s Kamala calling him a little bitch
- Please didn't throw me into that briar patch.
- If they manage to goad Trump into a live debate he's going to say something worse than "bitch".
  Trump not debating is just as much his handlers terrified of what he might say out loud to a woman of colour "not respecting him" and telling him he can't, as it is Trump being a coward.
He's just planning to push the "Rigged Election" line. Between his obvious insistence that the votes were rigged and now his inevitable claims that "They even had the debate without me," all of his shitty energy is going to be channeled into fabricating a casus belli for his next attempted Insurrection.
- It would be very funny to see them try to J6 when there's an actual defensive perimeter set up with no orders to fuck around and let them freely roam the capital.
- "They even had the debate without me,"
  Make it public and clear ahead of time when and where the debate is, and what the rules are. When he doesn't show just ask Kamala the questions, and when it's Trump's turn repeat that he has chosen not to attend but if he shows up he'll be brought on stage immediately for the rest of the debate.
  Yes, he's going to lie about it, but anyone who blindly believes his lies won't be reached anyway.
  Afterwards he'll probably try to have his own private "debate" on Faux news, which is where the clear public information ahead of time matters. So that if Trump "invites Kamala" but tries to impose unfair rules it is easily called out.
He can't drop out. He's going to go to jail if he doesn't secure the presidency.
"And now I'll hand that same question to my opponent - who I forgot isn't even here, so I guess he's too cowardly to answer the question on live TV."
- Looks like Dementia Don dodged this debate like he dodged the draft.
Donald Trump is not asexual.
- The fuck are you on about? Where did the person you're responding to say Trump was Asexual? Are you basing this off the word Narcissist? You do realize thats a mental diagnosis that has nothing to do with sexuality right?
- Right, the rape charges refute that whole idea

Oh hey the Democrats are actually acting like they want to fucking win for once this election.

Almost like the "young" candidate has more fight in her.
Never forget that about one week ago everybody was telling us "Suck it up. Biden will be the candidate. There's no chance he'll drop out." Biden bowed to the pressure because people were calling their senators about this.
- My man, I know. I know so hard.

It's especially amusing that Trump is reduced to a sniveling ball of cowardice by someone the Republicans keep trying to characterize as a "DEI hire."

They won't do it, but it would be baller to set it up like a debate, and have the moderator prompt the empty Trump lecturn and have the camera hold on it for 5-10 seconds each time. It would effectively just be a Kamala campaign interview, but with a bit of shade casting between each question.

Everyone forgets but trump dropped out of the town hall debate with Biden in 2020. Biden actually showed up and just did the townhall by himself. He came off pretty well but godamn did he look like Jeff Dunham's puppet Walter because they had him squinting up at a mezzanine of questioners with all the lights in his eyes.

It's really weird that Trump wouldn't go to the debate

Quite weird. Maybe it's because it would be past his bedtime? He IS the oldest candidate to ever run
- Hey, to be fair- he’s a busy guy. He has a lot of things going on. Maybe he’s planning to sexually assault someone that day. Or defraud investors. Or defraud banks. Or defraud campaign fund contributors. Or defraud a charity. Or start an insurrection. Or try to pressure a state government to overturn an election. Or try to blackmail a foreign government into producing dirt on his political opponent, or maybe he’s cheating on his wife. Or stealing government documents. Or selling government secrets to our enemies….

It almost has to be Alec Baldwin doing Trump at the no-show debate. Recent complications aside, his impression has always been the definitive one.

I feel like there's be some ethical, possibly legal, problem with presenting an imposter as an opponent at an official debate. It's a bad precedent. Besides, Baldwin comes with too much baggage right now
- Shane Gillis gets the Trump scumbaggery down just right.
- Besides, ~~Baldwin~~ Trump comes with too much baggage right now
  Really? baggage is what makes him worse than Trump?
- They could replace him with Harrison Ford again.
- Sure there would be trouble if they honestly and seriously tried to get him to present himself as the real Trump. Parody however is free and clear.

They need to do what BBC comedy show did one week when a politician guest didn't turn up and replace him with tub of lard.

Also more recently when Boris Johnson didn't want to show up for a climate change debate, Channel 4 replaced him with a slowly melting ice sculpture instead. This pissed him off so much he tried to privatise and sell off the whole station lol.
- Man, American reporters need to attend some training over there!
- Aww I was hoping it would be a sculpture of Boris Johnson himself. They should make one OF Trump and dress it in an oversized suit and everything
Just put a big Mac on a chair and put Trump's nameplate under it
- Just to really piss him off, pair it with a Mexican Coke, ya know. The good stuff with sugar
- With a bag of cheeto's next to it
We could do a chicken made of cheetos with a terrible hair piece.

Just put up a scarecrow with a Trump mask up on stage

Part of the joke is how the debate process has been entirely hijacked by the parties themselves. News networks used to host these events, now they just get filming rights. The League of Women Voters used to present a neutral venue, but the parties went behind the organization's back to set demands more appealing to the candidates.
Trump refusing to participate in any kind of debate is just the latest in a long history of hostage-negotiation style organizing. I suspect they'll end up on stage some time before November, after enough horse trading has taken place. But it'll be so canned and superficial as to hardly matter.
I think they call that a scareboomer.
I could see that helping Trump's case.
His base would be arguing that he was just being his stoic self by not responding.

She should just be unfailingly chipper, start calling him "old man" all the time, and framing everything around his insecurities.

"How they danglin' Old Man?" "Let the women speak, Gramps." "This country's too big for those tiny hands, Old Man." "Step aside and go yell at a cloud." "Shouldn't you be lying about your golf scores somewhere?"

That's always his plan of attack, so you KNOW it works on him. Mockery and dismissal will have him weeping with frustrated confusion. We've already seen the best he's got is "No, YOU are."

lol you're actually suggesting a presidential candidate insult the other's genitals? Yeah, let's all be 11 years old now.
- We've been there for a decade
They would mean stooping to Trump's level. Just no.
- That would mean speaking a language he understands. Being civil and taking the high road allows him to bulldoze right in. Visibly dismissing him as any kind of serious contender removes his fangs.
- We all saw how well "they go low, we go high" went in 2016

Trolls hate the light..bring it!!!!

They are going to call her weird for this, then go back and watch Clinton Eastwood yell at a chair.

i wonder which would be more entertaining.. him being there or not

i would hope shed play clips of his policies (hehe) from his own mouth at his rallies

.. just realized how sad it is i used the word 'entertaining'.. these things now seem far from informational

I would pay money to watch her debate a Conan O'Brien Clutch Cargo version of Trump.

This is what they should do. Show up to a "debate", give Trump time to show up, start after a token amount of time has passed, and then just start answering the questions that the moderators ask with no need for a rebuttal. It turns from a debate into a televised town hall style presentation. Don't forget to interject that her opponent was too afraid to answer these questions at every opportunity.

I'll bet Trump is looking for some of those injections he claimed Biden used.

Should debate kennedy, so it splits Trumps vote more. Kennedy already thinks he is working for Trump and will most likely drop out right before the election and endorse him.
