President Joe Biden appeared open Friday to the idea of refusing to debate former President Donald Trump before the 2024 election.
The president spoke briefly about the debates during comments with reporters on the tarmac before leaving on Air Force One for a trip to Philadelphia.
When asked by a reporter if he would commit to debating Trump, Biden replied shortly, 'Depends on his behavior.'Biden's comment is the first reaction from the president in response to former President Donald Trump's debate challenge on Wednesday.
'It is important, for the Good of our Country, that Joe Biden and I Debate Issues that are so vital to America, and the American People,' Trump wrote

In your ear, FJB. Can you imagine the juiced up FJB on stage debating?

Anyone who actually looks at biden's history will understand the fact that he has NO right to lecture anyone about appropriate behavior, anywhere, anytime.

As I recall, Biden did not "behave" in 2020. He interrupted and threw insults.

Biden's 'out'. Blame the coming eclipse on Trump and say 'That's it - no debate'.

Trump will wipe the floor with Biden.
Biden's people are not stupid enough to allow him to debate Trump.

Only if Dementia Joe has to pee in the cup, to show the Adderall dose he was given. No teleprompters or cheat cards either. It would be a massacre.

Well I have a different take on this. I think this kind of tough guy talk is choreographed by Joe's handlers some recent focus groups must've indicated that Trump loses voters most when he goes nasty. So the Democrats strategy is obviously to hit Trump where and when he's most vulnerable---and that would be if/when his ego won't let him ignore the bait.
Trump needs some kind of clever or humorous Reaganesque response because very shortly it won't be just Biden with his dukes up but the full cabal of the MSM will be baiting Trump 24/7 as well. He's been able to withstand incredible pressure; I just hope he can continue. It will get much worse.

I wonder what Biden's story will be as he continues to crater in the polls. Of course the problem then is, senile Biden has no capability to debate. He would be soooo drugged up and ANGRY that he wouldn't be able to control himself. Trump would simply have to prod him a bit and he would explode on live national media.
There is NO good ending for Biden in 2024.

I suggest this approach. PDJT explains that whenever Joe is caught in a lie, or stuck for his next lie, he gets aggressive and puffs up like a blowfish. From then on, point out instances with Reagan's 'There You Go Again!'.

Biden is a wimp. If he cannot handle the heat he has no right to run for the office let alone be president.

Normally, a debater would try to make the opponent misbehave. This puts the opponent on the defensive and makes them look like they are loosing. The person not misbehaving appears to be stronger in their argument and in control.
Biden and his handlers are now appearing to be very weak and afraid. It seems as if they have no ground to stand on. Cowards. Little sniveling excuse making cowards. Ground down beneath my toe. Flicked off of my forearm. Be gone, gnats.

BS. Biden's handlers don't want Biden to debate BECAUSE he's a buffoon off script. They prefer the limited gaffs while reading teleprompters vs not the major plunders of not having one.

OK, since he brought it up... my three basic rules for the debate.
1. One hour, on your feet, no podium, no chair, no teleprompter, no carafe to buy time, no earwhig, no crowd to shout answers, stand and deliver, alone and like a man. Ten questions, chosen in advance by general popular vote, asked of both candidates, three minutes to answer, and at three minutes, the mike is cut off. No rebuttals, no rescue by any talking head.
2. No moderator, just a monkey trained to cut off the mike at three minutes.
3. Drug testing to rival the olympics so that Amphetamine Joe is going cold turkey.
If nothing else, it will be fun to watch.

This is code for not being capable of ingesting enough drugs to get through a debate.

Trump should demand a debate without any predetermined questions, without a MSM moderator, and no audience. Head to head with Joe, winner take all.
