Biden Campaign Requests Debate Be Moved So Trump ‘is Not Able To Evade Accountability’ | MSNBC
Biden should do a town hall on the date the debate was supposed to happen. President says it is a waste of his time.. Truth is.. it is hard to talk over someone if you mic is muted.
@TheCultLeader In Chief Biden probably weighs about the same as he always has. Pretty remarkable really.
@Karen Byrd awwwwww, still in the middle of your 2016 meltdown?!?! #pathetic #dementia #electionnightmeltdown
President will be doing a town hall on radio on Friday. https://www.rushlimbaugh.com
There’s no way a candidate will do a town hall debate if the opponent has Covid or anyone has covid.Trump can spread his covid to anyone.
Remote debate is the best options for everyone’s safety.Muting the mic is good to those has big mouth of lies.
@L Shhhh… If you tell them, they’ll know, and maybe they won’t go. Who am I kidding? These idiots would buy the rope for their own hanging.
45 was looking for any reason to cancel. He doesn’t want to take a chance on coughing in front of millions.
Better to quarantine the whole Trump swamp and have the White House deep cleaned later.
So let’s listen in on Friday while he takes listener questions https://www.rushlimbaugh.coms
Omg that’s very scary that would clear a room. I’m surprised Kamala debated Pence I wouldn’t have. They should have made that virtual.
@Danielle Adair LLLOoL
Trumpf= The lying King
Avoiding accountability is a Trump specialty
@Nemesis1ism When Nancy was in China town, we didn’t know how bad the coronavirus was. Only trump knew, and he wasn’t telling anyone the truth.
@Pointless Matter NOT TRUE THAT INTERVIEW WITH BOB WAS AFTER,
@Nemesis1ism Whose Bob? After what?
@Pointless Matter that book writer woodworth i not sure . he interviewed trump by phone he said covid worse than he told public which is wise he pulling a doctors trick with placebo . the man is actually smarter than I thought. Vary intellectual move . the stuff great leaders do. Like Solomon in the dispute over a baby one woman was a democrat the other women was the childs mother.
Nemesis1ism How is your IQ so low
Why even have a debate at all! If people are honest they already know who there voting for. Jeopardize my health for this clown!
Your right about knowing who your going to vote for. I’m voting for Trump. I can’t vote for anyone that thinks its morally acceptable to burn alive, dismember, and end the life of a baby in the womb. Just no way I can vote for that. One side says its wrong (duh) other says the doctor carrying baby parts outside and dumping them in the trash is “Just”?
I used to wonder how civilizations of old could sacrifice babies to the god “Molak” and “Baal” etc. I wonder no more, our civilization does the same thing.
“Abortion” is literally Child sacrifice to the god of convenience.
@Jonathan & Brittany Cross maybe you better read your bible, since it has instructions for abortion in there 😉
@Dale Hartley email me your tears next month, were all out of liberal, just tonnes of domestic terrorist tears who wanted the POTUS death.
@Dale Hartley Even if it does you use this to justify killing unborn babies as a form of birth control?
Dyl S domestic terrorists are extreme right fascists aka the nazis
Of course Trump will make everything complicated, he knows he will lose
And when he lose, all the celebration on the streets to mock him as well as all the youtube videos will be priceless to watch!
Bunker Boy is Scared…..😂
Joe? He’s the only one scared to go out?
Hold him accountable. Trump syndicate has to end.
Devil Worshipping Democrats:
fake pandemic
fake impeachment
fake Russian Collusion
fake Ukraine scandal
fake systemic racism
fake black lives matter agenda
fake false positives
fake mail-in ballots
and finally………….fake virus artificially made for their Power Grab and Control!
Walter White 🤡🇺🇸
Not going to waste his time?? Wtf! Good to know we’re nothing but a “waste of time” to him. You know where he can go..😡
He didn’t say you were a waste of time.
Jillian Aguilar taking to his people = waste of time. I bet he’d rather taking to his Russian debt collectors
@Jillian Aguilar yes, yes he did. by saying that the debate would be a waste of time, he was saying that taking his time to talk to the people of the US would be a waste of his time.
@Dale Hartley she joined not decoded lol. This is what happens when I type to quick.
Donald Dump wants to infect our country!
ALREADY done! TIME TO SAVE the NATION!!!! If you’d CARE!!,😂🤣😂🤣
There needs to be a mute button controlled by the moderator for those who do not abide by the rules of the debate
And JB that is why Trump the rump refuses to do the virtual debate and that is what he said why do it if they’re going to meet me but what he doesn’t understand is that they will have the debate with or without him and even if they were having a face-to-face debate they will still have the mute button and they would still be able to meet him now if we can just get someone to permanently mute him🤣
He says he can”t debate because he has bone spurs.
Biden is too busy signing up for college to avoid war
Sleepy Joe wants to use a teleprompter for virtual debate. 🤣
+ Carmen-Marina Horn This was one of the best comments yet! I have a smile on my face a mile wide, thank you!
Biden takes a $1.5 Billion dollar bribe from China in 2013… Yet is going to “get American jobs” ?? Lol.. Biden is a sold out tool. The hand puppet of his purchased masters.
a presidential debate is a waste of time,only a “fake” president would say that
mtnminer Who are you talking about? Joe? Or Obama?
mtnminer you snowflakes always crack me up with comments like this. Follow the money trail. Look at Obama. Look at Biden. Look at the Clintons. They all have $100+M!! On $400,000 per year? You tell me. Who is treasonous?
@Jason Kelly the treasonous coward in charge,TRUTH,TRANSPARENCY,WHEN?
mtnminer that is so cute. LOL
@Jason Kelly where’s the facts to that?evidence?more fony stories,fake,you turds make me laugh,drump loves stupid people,he said so,because they voted for him hahaha stupid
I think it might help if both candidates and the moderator wear hazmat suits for the town hall debate
They all have to wear PPE or in bubble shields
Well, this just proves The Dumpster is still a coward and fool.
Personally I would not get anywhere near Trump at this time. I would wait until Trump test negative 3 times in a row
@Walter White you are such a bad guy — how trump said vaccine is ready for covid ? make sense man — go to hospitals and stay with covid -19 patients then you are right –its fake virus —
@vreddyusa trump 2020!
@Walter White trump is a LYING POS
@Truth 90 ..what did he lie about? name one thing.
Walter White he lies every time he opens his mouth
This Covid is proving very handy for Trump. He would feel differently if he actually had Covid.
@Pointless Matter The antibody cocktail helped others recover from coronavirus during clinical trials. It also seemed to help Trumps coronavirus symptoms.
@Jeannie Jones that’s what I just said. Trump thinks it cured him. It obviously didn’t hurt him, not yet anyway.
@Pointless Matter Others said it worked in clinical trials and it hasn’t hurt them. We will have to wait and see. The company is asking for emergency approval from the FDA. https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/08/health/regneron-eua-antibody-therapy/index.html
He’s high as a kite on steroids at the moment. I believe he feels strong amd invincible now,but just wait until they wear off.
Next time around, it’s Biden who should demand a drug test from his opponent.
Walter White then by your logic a fake president too since he stated he got COVID which according to you is fake
Is little Donny running away now? Pretty much what bullies do when they are successfully stood up.
God forbid he already had covert during the first debate ,was he trying to give Joe the heebie-jeebies , I wouldn’t debate him live again, he’s the f****** super spreader.
I bet you are on Food Stamps
@Rocks Cousteau i bet your a moron.
We don’t need anymore debates with Trump, but I will happily watch Pence vs Fly the rematch
“Waste HIS time” – Don of the Dead really believes he is a king. But we all see he is a coward!!
ANTI CHRIST,he defeated covid,nobody else on the planet,just him
+Phatt Al Yep the emperor isn’t wearing any cloths and that’s not what I’d call a happy thing.
