IF Biden does debate Trump, he is finished. The DNC knows this and former Clinton aides have suggested that Biden not participate in the debates.
Biden walks over incompetent Trump. Just as he slapped Paul Ryan around.

Trump doesn’t want to debate Biden. He’s going to make unreasonable demands and then try to blame Biden for the debates not happening.

It quite obvious his team is hiding him.

I get the feeling if he is elected POYUS, that we would rarely hear from him. and most of the governing/decision making would be by committee behind the scenes.
When he does emerge he gaffs every "friendly" place he makes an appearance.

Like when team Biden demanded he release his tax returns before they would debate him?

I doubt Biden will debate Trump nor come out of his basement much until the election. He's mentally incompetent and getting worse.

As in many cases, I could not participate in your poll because the choices were to restrictive and/or biased where I could not find an answer that closely aligns with my view.

That said, of course Biden will need to debate, regardless of how sharp or dull he will be.
To shirk a head to head debate in this day and age would be unthinkable.
Americans are picking the most important executive position in our country, and arguably the entire world.

To think any candidate could potentially slide into the position without showing the acumen to hold and take the reins of such an important position to the entire globe, is absurd.

I predict Biden will not be as feeble as some predicts, and might even have an advantage of exceeding such low expectations.
At least in the first debate.

If you can't, and I doubt you can, then this is just you flapping your gums again. To no one's surprise.

Anyone who wants to know why some Democrats are really urging Biden not to debate Trump should go and read these links the OP provided. You will see that the OP lied about it.

Again, to no one's surprise.



This is the part where you simply admit that you were wrong.....


From the link:

"whatever you do, don't debate Trump."
