After Trump vowed that he would debate the Democratic incumbent "ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE," Trump backed out of that promise when faced with Harris

    If he won’t debate her, then I think after every one of his rallies she should start dropping tiktoks, youtube shorts, or whatever, where she replays something he said, and then debunks it with hard facts.

        The targeted audience will never see it. Spam him on TS with “It’s been X days since DJT realized he was too scared to debate the Vice President.”

      She’s should get a Trump impersonator to say these things live on stage and then debunk them.

        Honestly, I love this, but I think the impersonator aspect cheapens it. Take clips of things he’s said and play them on a screen behind a podium across the stage from her. Have a moderator prompt the clips, have her rebuke/fact check them. Done.

        He doesn’t want to debate? Fine, we’ll have the debate without him. He’s already said what the people need to know. We just need to cut through the mountains of indecipherable bullshit he’s said while meandering around the point. Do him a favor and edit that down to his actual stance, as succinctly and clearly as possible. Don’t turn it into a joke making fun of how terrible he is at speaking, show people what he really wants to do.

          Imagine Kamala debating Alec Baldwin as Trump. I know he’s persona non grata right now, but Trump’s meltdown would be bigger than Vesuvius

            Tbh right now they have a way better Trump impersonator on SNL than Alec Baldwin anyway. She should legit go on SNL and do a fake debate with him. But I don’t think NBC would actually allow it.

              It would be better if they got a terrible one. Like Keenan in a blonde wig.

                I can definitely see the appeal of going that direction too. But for me personally, the current guy James Austin Johnson nails the “Trump is a rambling stream-of-consciousness insane liar who doesn’t even use English correctly” angle so perfectly that he’s the one I’d opt for.

        That would be funny, but I dont think it’d land well at all. She’d be mocked like when Clint Eastwood debated the chair.

    This is some real shit. This is what I want to see. A black woman is going to grab him by the pussy, get into that diminished mind of his, drive him further into dementia. Imagine the indignity he must feel. Some top-notch mindfuck shit.

      Maybe not. She can heckle and deride him not stop about this for months, and the only thing he can do to stop it is to debate her.

    Conservatives only debate students who don’t know any better or barely coherent geriatrics, and it’s never in good faith

    This reminds me of The Princess Bride. That moment when Inigo finally runs into the six-fingered Count Rugen in the castle hall, and finally says “Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die,” proving his drivenness. And then he gets into position, and levels his sword at his foe, proving his competency. And then Rugen gets into position. And levels his sword at his foe. And…turns on his heel and sprints in the opposite direction.
