Oh my god....here we are all getting pumped to see who is the better man.........as I understand it, they will not interact, they will not joust one-on-one? Debates are to trade ideas, dice things out like we do here. I was on debate team and I judged debates, this is un f'n believable.
You know that your queer little Biden is setting the parameters,,,,,,,,,right??! ...[text shortened]... Are you hearing me? You want this man to be the leader of the free world,,,,a weakling scaredy cat?
I am seeing info that they will be together and do a true debate. My apologies if I have misrepresented the format. Many sources out there, I did not vet my source on that one!!
I may divert the issue like libs do. Let me see. I predict JD Vance for VP, which I did 2 months ago.

It's a ridiculous question. They put the words 'Proud Boys' in his mouth, he was obviously unaware of wht they were talking about, it's not a white supremacist club.
Your defense of his answer is that he didn't understand the question? Why didn't he say that instead of stand back and stand by?

Not as disease ridden as your trailer trash skank of a heroin addicted prostitute.
Now this is interesting, the very next post from the one I predicted more of the same cliche' from shag' he comes out with 'trailer trash' it would be no exaggeration to say shag has repeated this so-called joke 200 times here, that's a very conservative estimate. I knew that if I said it, he'd do it. I'm here for the psychology of the place and jerking shags puppet strings is, not rewarding, but a game, a kinda sad game, he knows I'm yanking his strings but still he dances for me.

We've all heard the 'trailer trash' slight before, and not only from shag doody (there's no way he'd invent that one himself) but the thing is shag claims to be a left whinger, a champion of the working man and trailer parks are as working class as it gets. When you're chasing shut-down work away from home for months at a time a trailer park is usually the best option, yet the left whinger shag choses to shatmixer on the working man.

I don't think the current debating format is any good. The aim of each candidate is just to produce one or two emotionally charged sound bites that will be quoted the next day in the press.

What we need is an actual debate over policies and political philosophy, but it has degenerated into a slanging match of 'gotchas.'

Sound familiar?
Neither candidate would agree to a debate format that centered on a discussion of political philosophies.

Exactly, mocking the sunstrokers of the world, I would have just gone 'heh' when I heard it but the reaction from the self-righteous humorless has been very funny, including yourself.
Well, you aren't American, so the idea of destroying American democracy may be hilarious to you.

Not to me.

Let' see if we can get a straight unqualified answer from Spruce.
(Note that the two men could do this remotely on camera, not even be in the same city.)
Would you rather have the two debaters face off like Bush Gore, Reagan Carter? Or would you rather that they do NOT go face to face.
You would rather the latter, but your man B has f'd you by not giving you that scenario.
Am I right? Will you answer?
They could debate right here in the RHP Forum.

Just those two on, let's say 5, Presidential Debate threads. Each thread would have a different topic such as "What is the most important change that you would try to make to American domestic policy?" etc.. They would each be in their own room, filmed live. No earphones or teleprompters. Let's see what they actually have to say.

The audience could vote on each response, on the winner of each topic, and the winner overall.

Wanna try it? You be Trump and I'll be Biden? 😀

EDIT: AvJoe, if we do this, you have to POST IN ALL CAPS TO MAKE IT REALISTIC

I hope they both tell us how we are going to get out of this Biden Crisis, speaking to us instead of each other, like squawking women. And gotchas. We get plenty of that here.

You would have to say you will raise taxes. I would say we will lower taxes and get rid of the billions of dollars the illegals are costing us by shipping them to their homes. This is not their home, you see.
So from there, we would be so bogged down, you will follow with take money from Jeff Bezos et al which I would have to retort by saying it is a drop in a bucket, and so forth. And it is his money. I am too old to get in a seesaw discussion, which will lead no where!!! I'd rather play golf. But it would be fun as I would win. Your arguments would get into taking away my democracy, my assets, my freedoms, and forcing me to brother-up with people I do not want to be brothers with. When SHouse sees you attack democracy, he will even be on my side.
And so forth.

?????? No debate ever allows What? Settle man, you all get so angry.

I will phrase it this way before you confuse the Forum. ALL debates have had the same format.....Reagan and Carter, 10 feet from each other, chatting. Eye to Eye. (Biden will not even have to look T in the eye?). Bush and Gore, Trump and Hillary. All did debates in the only fashion with wh ...[text shortened]... key named YeahBoy wrote a few posts about the subject of inflation. You have done that here. Whew.
You said you were a "judge" at debates. The types of debates which have judges, formal ones, do not allow direct interaction between the debaters. Nor do they allow debaters to stray from the debate subject by asking unrelated questions to the other side. Since you complained about the supposed absence of either in Biden's proposal, I can only conclude your claim about being a judge in a debate which would have barred both is BS.

Indeed the Presidential debates have had a certain format and rules that every debater generally followed. Until Trump that is. He has insisted on constantly interrupting other demands and not confining his remarks to his allotted time. So whatever changes are being made are to enforce the existing rules that otherwise Trump has shown a disrespect for. Good and about time.

Me, I just want to see Biden stand up 2hrs, converse without notes. ….NO notes, no earphones. Also, tested for drugs for wake enhancers, et al. The ones he took for the State of the Union.
He even had to read his formal challenge on a teleprompter.
I am convinced that this is a trick, they are up to something. Maybe he already knows that he is going to resi ...[text shortened]... o announce his resignation. And dont be so gullible that the 'debate challenge' is a true challenge.
Why are you SO proud to be as dumb as Trump?

Yikes, Trump isn't even aware of who or what PBs are (a drinking club for men of any race, and whose chairman at the time was a black cuban or some racial mash up, who cares). Yikes, any PBs at Jan 6 were there as individuals, it was not a PB event. I don't doubt there were plumbers there too.

Clinging to the 'stand back, stand by" blurt is as inane as 'you can grab em by ...[text shortened]... has worked beyond expectation and here I refer you to about a hundred posts from shy_tehouse.) Yikes
Gullible as the day is long.
