Trump once again cast uncertainty over his participation in the ABC News debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, taking aim at the ‘FAKE NEWS’ network.
I watched ABC FAKE NEWS this morning, both lightweight reporter Jonathan Carl’s(K?) ridiculous and biased interview of Tom Cotton (who was fantastic!), and their so-called Panel of Trump Haters, and I ask, why would I do the Debate against Kamala Harris on that network?
If he does drop out of the debate again, I bet they could get him to recommit by going all Biff Tannen on his ass:
"What's the matter McTrump? Chicken?"
He'll bristle, and say he's no chicken and agree to debate Kamala.
In all seriousness, I was surprised agreed to debate her at all, given that he has nothing to gain. Best cash scenario, he tries the same approach he used with Biden, turning his mouth into a fire hose of lies, and Biden couldn't keep up. With Kamala, she'd just laugh at his lies, and actually refute him with facts, he'd look just awful in comparison.
At this point I doubt he'll actually show up to the debate.
How would real-time fact checking even work? Would the moderators actually do their job for once and call it out, or would they just do little VH1/"Pop Up Video"-style graphics where they would highlight whether they would try to correct the record on certain things being said?
Great. Give Harris the time slot for a big town hall speech and Q&A. Every 15 minutes, read a reminder to everyone watching that Trump declined to debate.
Keep the two podiums and put a wax figure of Trump in a chicken suit behind the other one. Put the camera on it with dead air for a few seconds every time it's his turn to speak.
Have a ticker constantly running at the bottom that #1 he backed out, #2 she only agreed to consider to debate on Fox "News" after the ABC debate which he already agreed to.
But he wants to debate on Fox. The station that was held legally liable for lying for him. The station that has to admit to being "entertainment" not news. Yeah, that's a better choice.
I'm so glad they don't have any time to replace him. Almost every right leaning person I know is so irritable and volatile lately. They know what's coming
"What we really need is an honest debate with principled moderators on a network built on trust and seeking veracity of all claims: Fox News! Only the most Trustworthy™ will do, Sean Hannity and Laura Inbread... wait... Ingrate... No.... Ingram! Right right Ingram."
Very true. I honestly don't think it's random though, I believe he's branding terms. It's always a name or a concept: Crooked Joe Biden, Democrat Witch Hunt, Kamala Crash, etc... when I do it I just add the "™" to make it more obvious.
