    Ultimately, it’s his call.

    This is checks calendar 2024. Candidates don’t need to debate, they all have to agree to it. If Trump doesn’t want to debate, then it’s not going to happen unless they basically give into his demands, because ignoring debates no longer looks bad (which is insane, but here we are).

      I think debates don’t really matter anymore because what these people say and do is reported on constantly all day every day. That wasn’t how it used to be.

        That’s not necessarily represenative of how they act in person, spontaneously.

        I go in assuming all social media is basically a lie.

              You can absolutely be in the loop on important stuff without going to Twitter.

              Stop supporting that shitstain and that Nazi haven by going there.

                I’m just saying a lot of real news has to cite Twitter as a source, because it is a source.

                No one likes it.
